FirstGear Kilimanjaro Air Textile/Mesh Jacket

I find the fit of this jacket to be as expected. Choose a size based upon what you normally wear in men’s clothing/jackets. You can consult sizing information from Firstgear for more sizing information. “Talls” are available in all five colors. Use the drop down menu above to view the available sizes and colors.

The Kilimanjaro Air jacket combines the comfort of a mesh jacket in hot weather with convenience features that actually work well. This jacket is packed with well-thought out features that will make commuting or long distance touring more comfortable and convenient. Pockets, pockets everywhere! I count four on the front, two inside and one big one on the fanny. Plenty of cargo room for the long haul. And the pockets are made of mesh material both front and back to allow for maximum air flow through the jacket. You get a full set of armor: Temperfoam™ shoulder/elbow armor with EVA foam back pad. The Temperfoam™ armor might best be described as “memory foam”. To upgrade the elbow and shoulder armor, you can replace the foam armor with the Core-Comp armor listed below. The jacket also includes an insulated and windproof full-sleeve liner. The liner will extend the comfort range of a garment like this making it useful all day—even when morning temps are cool. You can start your morning ride using the liner to provide a wind break, then when the temps warm up, remove the lining and pack it away for the afternoon. The liner also acts as a layer of waterproof material you can put on under the jacket to keep water off your body in a rain (although the stuff in your pockets will still get wet).
