team tech jacket

[daver]

does anyone have this jacket? I'd have to order it from the US because Canada doesn't have it. I cant tell if it's a good riding jacket or not, and how warm??

Also I'm 6'1'' 185lbs without gear, what size should i get?

thanks
Dave

I have one. I like it.
Very warm Lots of pockets. Has a removable liner. Not fleece. I can use this jacket all season.

Seasons past I would bring 2 ssometimes 3 jackets depending on the weather. Not this season

Lots of venting for warmer days. Windproof zippers

Thats me on the far left

OOOpps

I did not see the second question.

As for sizing, The jacket and pants run true to size. The Yamaha Acces catalog has sizing in the back. Go by that


Mine is a xxl. most non snowmobile jackets I wear are also xxl. Roomy enough for my TekVest Oh I'm 6' and go 230 w/ normal clothes on

could someone tell me what the difference is between large tall and xlarge? i don't have a US apparel catalog.

thanks

A tall size usually has longer arms and torso. xxl is just bigger around.

 

[maxdlx]

tall has 1 inch longer arms and the under arm to waist is longr by 1 inch anyone over 6 ft should have a tall

Here it is, right out of the acces book

LG chest 42, sweep 38, sleeve 38


LGT chest 42, sweep 38, sleeve 38 7/8


XL chest 45, sweep 41, sleve 41

Sweep is the measurement around the bottom hem of the jacket.
Sleeve and chest are well .......

Hope this helps

thanks for the info. i am looking at this jacket as well. has anyone tried the pants? are they sized similarly?

It all fits perfect, I highly recommend it.
I do not use the liner's, and ride in all temps

I own the FXR Adrenaline gear, which is exactly the same as the team tech. I usually wear a Large Jacket and Medium pant. I may have been able to go down a size on each. I am 5'8" and weigh 190 my jacket has plenty of room and my pants are a couple inches too long. What I don't like is no inside pockets if the liner is out, also the pant liner is kind of half assed attatched with buttons down at the bottom by the zipper. Other than that it's warm well built gear. I would try some on or make sure they'll take back if it doesn't fit right.

Hi Maim.

Yup got the pants also. Love em. Can see them in our pic of the ice falls.
Again thats me on the left.

I do not use the liner w/ the pants. WAY TOOOOO warm.

i have tried on a similar jacketat local dealer and know 3x is the size i want. the problem is i am built too low to the ground on one end (28" inseam). i know frogg is similar in height. what i want to know is if i order the xl bib to go with that, is it going to have nasty baggy legs on me?

in my current leathers/cheapy spares, even with the snow cuffs done up the legs almost drag on the ground. if i wear my jean-gee rubber boots they do now. sled boots are better but are not as waterproof. when breaking trails sometimes you get stuck in the slush and the rubbers are the preffered boot for doing that.

I have this suit too. Excellent pant and jacket combo. Very warm. Very comfortable. Lots of pockets and excellent placement of them. I don't think anyone would be dissapointed in this suit.
