Fieldsheer Hydro Tour Textile Waterproof Jacket $63 at Bike Bandit

I bought this 2 months ago when it was $75 and am very happy with it.  Showed if off at work and two of my friends (both LONG time riders with plenty of experience with gear) also bought one.

2 months is too soon to assess it's longevity, but no problems so far, and it seems close to the quality of the old Kilimanjaro I'm retiring.

Now Bike Bandit has lowered the price!  Use your AMA for even more discount.

Read the reviews and get one size larger!! they definitely run small.

Ride safe!

 :yikes: What a killer deal! And a nice looking piece.

I've got a pair of Fieldsheer leather pants that I've been wearing for >7 years now and they've held up great, so if this jacket is made as well, it should last you for a long time.

That's a great lookin' jacket.  As often as I seem to get caught in the rain  :roll: I should probably get something that's at least a little waterproof...

Haven't been in anything more than a drizzle, so it's too soon to confirm how waterproof it is, but according to the reviews that shouldn't be a problem.

Oh, and I should have mentioned that I've ordered several things from Bike Bandit and always been pleased with the service.

   Usually you don't get much of a discount until the most popular sizes are gone and this is the case here. The only sizes left are small and extra small.. but then if you wear a small it is a hall-of-a-deal...
