2017 KLIM Kodiak Jacket & Pant

I’m back again to announce the all new KLIM Kodiak. I came across the new design back in October, 2016 at the AIMExpo in Orlando, FL, and have been patiently waiting to get my hands on the set. With a name like “Kodiak” it has a lot to live up to, so what better way to test out the suit than wear it on a 7,000 mile journey to Alaska to explore the amazing region firsthand? Stay tuned for a full ride review of the all new KLIM Kodiak upon my return home!

Below, I have included specifications from KLIM for the Kodiak:

 

KLIM’s Kodiak: The Touring Survival System

Engineered to bring a more refined fit to the KLIM lineup, the Kodiak collection enters the touring world in a sleek and tailored style built for abuse. Featuring fully armored KLIM Technology to battle the weather, abrasion and travel’s most troublesome obstacles, KLIM’s Kodiak is the high-mileage touring king.

Designed for riders looking for the ultimate in precision fit, Kodiak is built on a base of GORE-TEX® Pro Shell GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY® main body fabric. Integrated perforated leather overlays in high-abrasion zones add functional style while muted corporate branding finishes the rugged and durable look. Functionality is the core of any KLIM product and the Kodiak has more than most. Each piece comes equipped with genuine YKK® zippers, D3O® CE-rated level two armor, intelligent ventilation ports and functional cargo carrying pockets. Each piece also features Black 3M™ Scotchlite™ reflective material.

 

Kodiak is a name that should be taken seriously. As one of the most remote regions of the American frontier, it has a wild and unforgiving reputation. KLIM built the world’s most functional and aggressively tailored touring apparel to honor this region. After all, in Kodiak, there is no pretending or hiding behind claims. Out there, it’s simply perform or perish. And KLIM is riding on.
