Klim Carlsbad gear is so much more than just the “baby brother” of the Badlands Pro – the Carlsbad holds its own as the best lightweight, waterproof, Gore-tex motorcycle gear for adventure riders wanting to reduce bulk without compromise.
The redesigned Carlsbad Jacket has been built to an even higher standard from the chassis of the proven, highly mobile predecessor. Engineered for excellent mobility and comfort when riding, the Carlsbad features dramatically improved core and arm ventilation, greater abrasion resistance, more refined storage options and improved impact protection. This is the light and fast, waterproof solution for hard-charging adventure riders!
