    OK, so after almost 10 months of use I can give more feedback -

    1. Armor is heavy(2.5Kgs overall, but due to its size it seems buly). BUT, you get used to it very fast.
    2. Rain cover is superb, only thing is little rain seeps in through the zipper lining.
    3. 3M strips are great for visibility at night.
    4. Have fallen once on the bike wearing this gear and am scratchless. (Was at 40kmph and had to brake suddenly due to cows rushing in the middle of the road [emoji14] )
    Suprisingly the jacket is also scratchless! Insane durability

    5. Jacket has great mesh material, keeps you cool even when moving at 20kmph.
    6. It does get hot if you're not riding and just walking.
    7. Doesnt need much cleaning, just the occasional once a month cleaning is more than enough.

    Gloves are very snug and have decent rain resistance, stiching on the outside is a great feature. Knox protectors on palms absorb impact fantastically.


    P.s. - Selling my jacket and gloves together for 7k (Reason - Selling my bike and moving to Delhi). Condition is great, as in pics.

    Not sure if this is the best place to put this, can someone help direct me to the right thread?
    No plans of riding in Delhi?
    Cheerio!
    Ride safe \m/

      What size is the jacket... I might be interested in both the gloves and the jacket... I need a medium.

      OK So I just saw that this is an xl... Won't fit me.

          Hi folks,

          After a long wait, I received my new ADV Breed Jacket two days back. I was in bangalore in july '16, and had visited their store for the same. However it was out of stock.

          So I kept in touch with them, and near oct they told me that pre-bookings have started on their website. I made the order and it was expected to get shipped by 1 week nov, however due to various reasons and problems at customs, it got held up. The shipment was initiated only after Dec 15th.

          But the jacket is actually worth the wait. The prices have increased marginally, now it is been sold at 8950/- approx. The features are all same, built quality/looks/fitting are all excellent. And overall is comfortable once you wear it. I had checked almost all other competitive jackets available in this range and none of them have these many features available.

          The only problem I think is the zipper handle at the wrist are very thin in size, although they are of ykk. Sometimes, you may feel that zipper grip may break while fastening.

          But overall, it is worth the money and best for I would say amatuer to medium riders.
          SOMETIMES,
          YOU FIND YOURSELF IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE;
          AND SOMETIMES,
          IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE,

          YOU FIND YOURSELF!

              Jacket rain liner is good for light drizzle only. For heavy rain try a 4 season jacket or a rain coat
              Cheerio!
