- Is the RST TracTech jacket fully waterproof?
- Yes. It has a fixed waterproof membrane, so it sheds rain without a separate shell. Seams are sealed, but heavy downpours can still soak the outer fabric.
- Does it include a back protector?
- No. Shoulder and elbow D3O armor is included, but the back protector pocket is empty. You need to buy a compatible back protector separately.
- Is it good for summer riding?
- Not really. The fixed liner and limited venting make it warm in hot weather. It suits spring, autumn and mild winter riding better than midsummer heat.
- How does it compare with a Gore-Tex jacket?
- It is less breathable and heavier than Gore-Tex shells, but it includes D3O armor and costs far less. It is a practical choice for wet commuting rather than long hot tours.
- What sizes and colors are available?
- It comes in men's sizes from Small to Large, in black, red and white. Check the RST size chart, as the cut runs close to a standard European fit.
- Where is the Rst TracTech D3O Textile Jacket Waterproof cheapest?
- At Motoin, for $183.76, as of our latest check.
