2020 Klim Carlsbad Review

Check out the Klim Carlsbad! This jacket is one awesome piece of adventure gear, chock-full of value. The Carlsbad is one of only a few jackets at this price-point to offer a Goretex-Performance waterproof membrane. What do you adventure-riders think?

Wow! I think this is a very well done and extremely informative video, even better than what Klim have put together for their product! Kudos! Please keep them coming!

I have had my eye on this jacket for the last few weeks but waiting on stock to come into the country.
But after your comprehensive and detailed review am definitely waiting and will be my next jacket. Now to figure out what colour..😁

Please mute the music while talking. I was looking for a review of the jacket, but left after just a minute and couldn't concentrate due to the music and the talk...

[@adv_edd]

Well! That was a bloody good video. Exactly what I was after! Thanks.

[@motoapes3623]

Thanks! Spread the word...we have a bunch more in the works!

[@othoapproto9603]

I give your review 4 stars. Dropping the music would earn you one more star.

Truly excellent review. Well done

Great video, I currently own a Rukka Armaxis jacket, and it's too warm to wear in high summer. I noticed you were wearing a size large in the video, and that it seemed like you could easily fit a mid and baselayer under, can I ask what your dimensions are just for reference concerning fitment. Many thanks, great review.

Great video. Thanks

How’s the fit? Small? Large? Tight? Heavy? Would have been nice to know

[@motoapes3623]

American fit. Not tight. Roomy. Fir is true to size, but not tapered oddly anywhere. Not notably heavy. It's the jacket I chose out of many I tried.

@@motoapes3623 thank you!

I have both the jacket and the pants. Jacket is awesome. Pants not so much. They have, good ventilation, solid waterproofing. Top of the line knee armor pocket is sewn in wrong; as a result the armor protects the inside of your knee. When you look at the construction of the garment it’s pretty obvious that the placement is an error. Klim support basically told me that they did this intentionally so they would not correct the issue. If you intend to use separate knee armor these pants will be fine but if you want to use the D30 that comes with the pants you should look somewhere else. The armor placement makes it useless. For a company with a reputation as good as klim's the customer service is horrible.

agree on the front cargo pockets not being waterproof, why not just put some gusseted zippers instead of velcro and make it fully waterproof. only reason i'm not buying this jacket.

Good review.

[@kamelthorn]

Great review

[@michsky46]

perfect review

[@larrytucker1945]

It’s funny how Americans love waterproof laminated shells and European world travelers will only wear layered non waterproof shells. I’m generalizing of course but it is interesting. Thanks

[@sunnyboner676]

Indeed! Here in Central Asia, they’re also more inclined towards the European choice of motorcycle attire. Even though I’m touring here, I decided to opt for the American style waterproof laminated shell. I can’t imagine having to wear different layers all bunching up 😅

[@dismemberizer827]

Well, that's an add not an review.. liked your comp video of the Baja vs etc., but this is just selling..

[@motoapes3623]

Except for the scores and what we thought could be improved upon?

[@dismemberizer827]

@@motoapes3623 indeed. Reading through specs is nice, but not a review. Your opinion and experience would be great like you did with the Baja review. Cheers
