WATERPROOFNESS
 
Waterproofness is vital when it comes to riding out in the elements. Riding gear that allows you to get wet is not only uncomfortable, but can be life-threatening. If you are stranded in the middle of nowhere, the last thing you want is to be wet.
 
A lot of products claim to be waterproof and are initially, but after subjecting them to the demands of riding they quickly lose their waterproofness, leaving you wet and uncomfortable. Through hundreds of hours of testing we found that only GORE-TEX® fabrics stand up to the use riders put their gear through.
 
BREATHABILITY
 
Breathability is equally important to waterproofness and is what keeps you dry from the inside out. Even if you are not riding hard your body is producing moisture. It is vital that riding gear allows this moisture to escape. Breathable fabrics allow this moisture to pass right through the fabric. 
 
Not all fabrics are equal when it comes to breathability. Often fabric companies will compromise waterproofness in order to create more breathability. Only GORE-TEX® fabrics combine extreme waterproofness with superior breathability.
 
MOBILITY
 
Correct patterning is essential in ensuring that riding gear allows you to move the way you need to move. With correct patterning you will find that your clothing will work with you, not against you, reducing muscle fatigue and increasing overall comfort.
 
FIT
 
Overall fit is a complicated process, but is crucial to overall comfort. Patterning of a garment needs to take into account body type and body proportion. KLIM has spent years studying and understands these different elements and has developed patterning that more accurately fits the needs of the aggressive rider.
 
PROTECTION
 
When we talk about protection we are not only talking about protection from bumps and bruises, but we are also talking about protection from the elements. As snowmobilers we constantly subject ourselves to the harshest winter elements and often find ourselves in life-threatening situations. KLIM products are built to give you the ultimate level of protection against these elements while elevating your comfort level.
 
DURABILITY
 
Durability is a result of the combination of materials used and the process that is used to combine those materials together. There are many different quality levels of materials available, and like all things, you can compromise here and there to cut corners. KLIM has been relentless in finding and using only the highest quality and most durable materials available.
 
The construction of riding gear is as important as the fabric that goes into the piece. Great detail and attention goes into each KLIM piece insuring that KLIM riding gear is durable as possible.
 
FUNCTIONALITY
 
For KLIM, functionality means several things. Functionality is understanding and designing riding gear specific to different riding styles and different body types. The latest technologies, product feedback from the best riders and exhaustive testing combine to create the most functional and technical riding gear
in the industry.
