Klim Marrakesh jacket in cool grey

New for 2023, this is an updated version of the Klim Marrakesh jacket which has become our favourite summer jacket here at Motolegends. For us this might just be the ultimate, lightweight, summer jacket. In concept, it is similar to the Rukka Forsair, but it betters it in a number of areas. The outer fabric of the Marrakesh is a 1000 denier woven Cordura. The fact that it does not have a waterproof membrane means that it will flow large volumes of air although, in the margin, we would have to suggest that the knitted Cordura of the Forsair will flow more. But made of stronger material, we would expect the Klim jacket to be more abrasion resistant and, with its four-way stretch, probably more comfortable to wear too. Unlike the Forsair, the Marrakesh does have a get-you-home, waterproof coating. This new version of the Marrakesh now has D30 Ghost armour in the elbows, shoulders and a level 1 D30 protector fitted as standard in the back. All the rest is really detail. We're talking about pockets, reflective panels, comfort linings, and so on. Obviously, if it rains, you'll need a waterproof, but on a hot day this jacket is going to take some beating. We have always felt that there were perhaps slightly too few sizes on the Marrakesh and on occasion people would fall in between those sizes. This year, Klim has added a waist adjuster cord which should help solve this issue.
