Default RST Pro Jacket

This one:



I've had mine over two years now and it's predominately my winter jacket.

Wear - has gone a little "fuzzy" round the cuffs but essentially still looks like new. I've never even washed it, it seems to repel crud.

Waterproof - Have subjected it to extended periods (4 hours +) of rain riding without so much as a dribble getting through. Even the pockets are fairly waterproof.

Pockets - There are 11. Two inside pockets are totally waterproof. The removable map pocket on the back is ideal for the transportation of sandwiches to work

Warmth - I have a 20 minute commute to work. This week I have been wearing a cotton rich shirt with a thin "gilet" style fleece (not even a proper thermal one, its from GAP) underneath. I normally have a sweat on when I arrive.

In short this is one of the best pieces of motorcycle equipment I have ever bought.
The only drawback with it, is that it looks a bit dull.

Even crash tested it the other day, lost the front end at about 15mph.

Tiny little scuff on the sleeve, even smaller one on the back.
Armour worked really well. Jacket is still fully servicable.
