Review on ๐ŸŒง๏ธ Ultimate Motorcycle Rain Suit for Men & Women: Reflective Waterproof Rainsuit in Black (X-Large) by Joe Duncan

Revainrating 3 out of 5

4 stars with more security/reflective properties

OK. Bought because my car is in the shop and I have to drive 55 miles to and from work every day. My bike is a 2012 Yamaha Royal Star Silverado, you can google it. Work, light rain, traffic behind cars and trucks churning up water vapor from the freeway. nothing heavy at all times. I can say that in this first test everything was fine. nothing but the top of my ankle got a little wet. This one doesn't have a leg strap so it doesn't get pulled over your shoes. It's a small minus and they should add or supply another version for a few bucks more. The front zip has a heavy velcro strap that stays securely behind my windshield in moderate winds. The seat and knees stayed dry and are the two biggest areas most people have to deal with in the rain. Again, no heavy rain or constant downpour so I can't say this will hold up to an hour of heavy rain. but it is a light suit and handles a little rain quite well. .the clasp at the neck is way too tight for the size of the costume. I have no idea why the clasp around the neck is so small on the 2xl suit. I'm not a 2xl person, I bought this size to wear my cycling jacket underneath. So you would expect the neck opening to be flush with the jacket/pant sizing. no He's as small as most medium-sized ones. So if you have a large neck you may not be able to fully close this suit around your neck. I had to get the black version as I really needed it ASAP. NOT a fan of ANY raincoat that comes in all black with just a little bit of reflective piping here and there. For this reason I am deducting a star. it needs a lot more reflective tubes/tape/paint. this is by no means sufficient when driving in the dark, in the rain, with poor visibility, etc. My usual heavy cycling jacket is bright yellow with reflective piping. I want to be seen on my bike. you are almost invisible in this suit, in black, other colors in my size were sold out until the end of the month/beginning of november. and i needed it asap. For easy handling, light suit. that should suit you fine. I don't see it as some kind of "cross-country" raincoat, but perhaps one to take with you in case your main suit gets ripped or leaks that you can't fix or fix right away. I don't plan to do much for this costume, but if in the future I have a reason to change my rating up or down I will update it.
