Klim Marrakesh jacket review

In this review, Chris talks through the Klim Marrakesh jacket. The outer material is a heavy-duty, 1000 denier Cordura. With four-way stretch woven into it, it makes for an amazingly comfortable jacket. The jacket also comes as standard with D3O armour throughout. We've devised a system that will allow you to wear the Klim Marrakesh jacket all year round. The Marrakesh really is an extraordinary bit of kit. To see what we're banging on about, check out what Chris has to say.
Contrary to what Chris said in this review, the 2021 price for the Klim Marrakesh jacket is £370.

My favorite reviews of gear! I watch this channel to make my final decisions on my gear. Florida 🇺🇸 Thank you Chris !

[@mojosdad68]

Anthony was the king of reviews, such charisma. But your unedited, honest approach is just as good in my books. After moving from the typical 3-piece adv gear, I thought I had the solution with the Klim Latitude suit. But spring if this year I bought the Marrakesh jacket to wear with my K52 jeans for my short 30 min commutes and everything changed. Riding in temps between -2 and 38 Celsius here in Canada, I was so impressed with the jacket that I bought the matching pants and sold off the Latitude suit. The Marrakesh is just way more comfortable. Lighter. Less bulky. Breathes better. And zipped sleeve cuffs! I keep the same Scott waterproofs seen in this vid on the bike (though I recommend the yellow jacket for better visibility), and in cooler weather I wear Klim’s Zephyr wind shirt over a base or base plus mid layer. Awesome gear.

[@RayCrowe]

Chris, I really enjoy your honest, informative and no nonsense reviews. I only wish you had a shop in North Wales or North West UK to allow me to try the Rukka/Klim range before purchase. Please keep up the excellent video reviews 👍😀

[@lpete531]

You do a fine presentation of the gear, I enjoy it, all the way from San Antonio, Texas 👍🏽

[@SWPriddis]

Many thanks for the video guys, informative as always. I was particularly keen on the advice for developing an all-round riding solution, makes a lot of sense.

[@Jonwa63]

Thanks, so glad i came across this before replacing my laminated jacket

[@rickp9946]

Hi Chris - I've had the pleasure of meeting you (amongst others) in the shop. In my view what's appealing about these videos - and indeed what you say in the shop - is that everything comes across as honest and realistic. It's always unpleasant (certainly for me) watching back videos in which one appears and thinking how much better things could have been done but essentially what people looking at this sort of video want to know is "will it work for me?" - you generally provide more than enough information to let people build up a shortlist that's for sure. Extra corporate gloss and super-coiffured presenters don't help much in that respect.

[@BarbaryStudio]

Best presentation i ever have seen on motorcycle gear

[@PrinceAmir]

Very informative review, thanks a lot. Really like the mention of complimentary items for creating a complete package. It will be very helpful if you leave links to your products in the video description so that prospective customers can easily navigate to the desired products.

[@user-cx2bk6pm2f]

"we call it the way we see it" Bravo! I support that 100%.. and will do so by shopping here!

[@cefagro]

Chris, great video and the use of a lavalier style microphone is a great move, for now the sound is clearly audible all the time. Some of your earlier videos had issues with the sound level but now with the addition of that bit of kit, a big thumbs up.

[@ArifKhan.]

Excellent review. So much more informative than the guy at the store, when i asked about the Marrakesh jacket.

[@bendingthetube]

Thanks Chris! Useful review. Oregon.

[@BangaloreAviation]

Good reviews. Thank you. May I recommend you put links to the products you present. For example the duck down liner and the Scott Water proof jacket.

[@Rubiodiamante]

A great review once again. This is the best, thorough and honest motorcycle apparel channel!

[@umberto9381]

Greetings from Canada .....great job Chris..........wished I lived closer to your shop

[@TheTypeRTheory]

I just bought one of these thanks to this video. Very well shown.

[@mbrunskill]

how was it for size ? did you go down much from your normal sizing etc

[@TheTypeRTheory]

@@mbrunskill It's more American sizing than European, so quite generous I found. I'm a UK XL and this in XL fit me great.

[@mbrunskill]

@@TheTypeRTheory so the same size as your UK gear ? Im usually a 46 and the size guide is 2 sizes different on Motolegends to everywhere else, im a XXL in Merlin, a XXL in RevIt, a XXXL in Belstaff, ive gone for an XL in this, the Klim site said the XL for my height and weight

[@damienford3587]

Fantastic system. This is a brilliant demonstration, showing Chris in possession of in depth product knowledge. All in all, the perfect presentation.

[@user-cn8vb9hh5z]

I bought this from you on the basis of this video and its lived up to your review so far. Its super comfortable protection and for me the better choice over the Forsair.

[@Howling-Mad-Murdock]

Hi, I’ve been looking at a few mesh options and really like the look of this one. Do you think the material would brush off riding past the odd bramble bush? My main use would be off-road/green laning, with the only road use being getting to the off-road riding. The layering system you propose is exactly what I have in mind for colder/wetter riding. Cheers.

[@ichbins2545]

Don’t worry Sir, your Videos are the most useful in the Internet, and that’s what counts most 💫 Please 🙏🙏🙏

[@roadglide]

Looks great. What size is Billy’s jacket?

[@4420dano]

Chris - it's KLIM -- as in "climb". That's why the "i" in the logo has a long sign on top. A long "i". KL- AYE - M. Otherwise, love your stuff, wish motolegends was in US

[@xanakinx]

Good review as usual guys, thank you. I find your system very interesting and I was wondering if you could share your thoughts regarding a comparison between a Klim Kodiak vs Marrakesh + Scott waterproof outer layer. Thank you!

[@2fifty_ad819]

You won’t regret the marrakesh

[@swifttone]

What is the model's measurements and what size is he wearing?

[@ronniereid]

Great presentation & agreed on how silly it is to have waterproof layer inside the jacket. I like this layered approach much better.

[@andrewvickers4487]

Nice vid. "Not the slickest" but you're leaning on a Super Hang-On arcade machine - that's all the production value you'll ever need! Very clever tapping right into my age group with that one ;)

[@wonderfulperson1056]

How good is Cordura in terms of abrasion?

[@Redzuano]

What was the size of the Marraakesh jacket that he's wearring ? For size reference.

[@zippy441]

What size is Billy wearing?... Not sure if I missed that.

[@ukaszcezary8870]

I like your Videos :) Thx

[@RollModel724]

Are there any testing videos on their safety??

[@lewh.8138]

Hi Chris,,how does the Marrakesh jacket compare to the klim induction or induction pro in 90 to 100 degree riding

[@mrbjay5443]

How does the Rukka compare to the Klim Maverick Down Jacket which is slightly higher.? Does the Rukka pack down better?

[@tuckesic]

Any review soon of 2023 Marrakesh variant?

[@Motolegends]

We can fit a zip to the Marrakesh so you can zip to your Rukka trousers. Best to come and visit us in Guildford to get it right. ML

[@Gamba73]

Hi from Italy …I following you from here for a long time …and I wanna ask u 1 thing : I had used wind/rain protection like this …but within minutes I sweat inside …exists some jack like this wind/rain protection breathable without much weight? Tnx for your work ! Ps tell me if u can dell out of your nation (Italy of course 😅) Giovanni !

[@allun13]

Bought one from you yesterday (25th June). Fantastic Jacket superb advise from your staff (The South African Guy- didnt get his name) Really great Company. Thanks

[@mbrunskill]

how was it for size ? did you go down much from your normal sizing etc

[@sumporfuk]

Anthony from Revzilla WAS a fantastic presenter, no doubt but, the truths that you are telling is head and shoulders above what Anthony ever did. The simple fact of comparing other (Big Named) brands against whatever it is that you are describing helps tremendously when it comes to imagining how a particular garment will fit into ones personal scenario. Anthony is past but Chris is present nuff said

[@Motolegends]

Thanks for your comments, but I have to balance comments like yours with those of other people who say things like 'too much waffle!'

[@markc7342]

Great set up with the layering system ! What would be your opinion on using this same setup but instead using a Rukka Forsair as the protective layer do you still think that would be a setup to get you through most riding conditions ? I know use say the Rukka Flows more air but with all three layers surely this would be irrelevant in terms of keeping you warm as the Scott is providing a windproof layer, the way I'm looking at it the mid layer be it the Klim or Rukka is purely just for protection when using all three. About to put an order in to you guys but the the Forsair Pro Long really suits my needs better but would still like to use the combo ranging from 15 degrees upwards.

[@Motolegends]

Yes, it would work. You just have to bear in mind that without the windproof layer you could get cold. It is also true that, whatever you wear beneath, the more air a garment flows, the cooler you are going to be.

[@markc7342]

@@Motolegends " whatever you wear beneath, the more air a garment flows, the cooler you are going to be" Sorry not quite sure what you mean ? Whatever you wear beneath without a windproof layer the cooler you will be ? surely a thermal layer underneath would keep you warmer even if air was still getting through ? say for temperatures that are not extreme but still just want to take the edge off the wind chill

[@aveguy451]

Very useful video. Thanks. A side note, not meant to criticize, only educate. I have been corrected on the pronunciation of zebra and garage and numerous other words, so now it’s my turn. I live only a few miles from Klim’s World Headquarters. My home town is famous as the birthplace of television, and also Klim. All this is to say Klim is pronounced “climb”. It’s not everyday I get to correct a Brit, all in good fun old boy.

[@tomford5495]

How would you compare Klim Marakesh to Knox Honister jacket? The concept of no-season jacket for both is similar.

[@Motolegends]

I don’t know the Knox well but from what I can see I would suggest the Marrakesh is a lot more versatile as you can layer underneath and therefore wear in a wider temperature window.

[@stegena]

Is it possible to swap armours for ce-2 from klim?

[@motolegends2606]

This should not be a problem Jan. ML

[@chrishoskins3503]

Is there any way of zipping this Klim jacket to my Rukka pants?

[@chrishoskins3503]

I visited Motolegends and tried this out on a test ride with the Rukka Forceair back to back, picked the Klim AND got the zip fitted, great service

[@yogionthemove9188]

you guys are good

[@markmeredith927]

I really liked this jacket when I tried it on. What would clinch it for me would be a way of zipping it to my summer jeans.

[@Motolegends]

We can fit a zip which would allow you to zip to the Halvarssons waist belt which will then work on any jeans. ML

[@markmeredith927]

@@Motolegends Excellent! See you in the spring.

[@gvdl7569]

Hello, what size is he wearing (is that a medium?) and what are his measurements ? Thank you

[@Motolegends]

Billy is wearing a medium Marrakesh. He is 6' 1" and 38 " chest. ML

[@michal_z]

I like ML reviews much more than revzillas 💪

[@solusquinto3086]

Hey there! Is there a reason why this jacket is almost nowhere to find (at least in Germany)? Is it discontinued and if yes, is there a successor? Originally I am looking for Stadler Treasure Pro and Quest Pro or 4all pants but I like your thoughts of combining a mesh jacket like the Marakesh with different out-/inliner.

[@Motolegends]

Just sold out with a lot of stockists. We have all colours in all sizes!

[@solusquinto3086]

@@Motolegends Thanks for your answer. I took a look at your shop and found everything. Unfortunately tax fees (incl. customs) are extremely high. It adds a third of the overall basket value :(

[@domster200]

Better than that Chris! A down jacket would be more efficient between the mesh and windproof layers.Some of the videos come up as 'private?

[@stocks7765]

does klim have trousers that go with this jacket?

[@Motolegends]

Yes they have brought out a trouser this year but only in one colour. And given it doesn’t attach we felt most people would prefer to wear the Marrakesh with a single layer jean. ML

[@stocks7765]

@@Motolegends Thx for that!What is actually the difference between the induction and the Marrakech?Looking for something to wear from 20°.Should be able to hold a little temperature drop to let's say 17-18°.Thx in advance

[@paulsmyth497]

We wouldn't swap you for a dozen RevZilla "Anthony's" Chris............ 13 or 14, well...... we'll think about that. Anthony is a polished professional who knows his ar5e - sorry - shoulder from his elbow. Mind you, he's pretty chuffin' useless with tenses - always telling what things are "Going to do" for me - presumably - that is a positive prediction, rather that what it will effin' DO for me today. Anyway - digression apart. Anthony can't help being - American. We'll be in to try both the Forsair, and the Marekes......Maraket........Maracatc....... the Klim vent, with the Rukka duck down mid layer. I've had 3 Belstaff's from you over the last 18 months, which is my late 70's first love - including a Mohar....... Mojav.......Moharv........... the short one. I am really passionate about Belstaff since I had a slide in '78, ripped a pocket and sleeve, and they repaired if free of charge, with a letter hoping I was ok (True), but I know the company has changed hands twice since then - but that brand loyalty is still there in my soul, but if I am honest, rather than sentimental, I know that this "Gory Text" (which I always thought was Halloween III SMS picture messages................no ??) and cordura is the future, but trust me, the past was also great. Just wetter, colder and more miserable. However, now that I am older - and therefore wetter, colder and more miserable in my disposition, I need warmth, cooling and comfort continuously, and infinitely variable. Good job Chris / Sarah and entire team. I wish you had been around in the late 70's - but then again, you would be grumpy old beggars by now like me 👍😁😘😘😘😘😘😘, so you'd be saying "Put a plastic bag over your socks and you'll be fine" like my Mum did. I did.............., and I never was 😂 Cheers guys

[@newtonfrazer4096]

Seems professionalisms me. You sold me

[@boomcity4942]

Chis you’re hands down better than Anthony on RZ. His introduction is very annoying.I turn off the volume and advance his videos as he comes across as an overbearing arrogant fool. It is painful to watch the same induction over and over when trying to choose a product. OMG if I walked into a store and had to listen to that over and over I would walk out into traffic. You have class and style. I appreciate your knowledge and message delivery. If you ship to the USA I will buy from you. Thank you!

[@fozzybear9114]

Pronounced climb. But good review

Klim 🤣It’s pronounced Klime!! 😂

Oh dear - if you are selling Klim gear, it's probably best to find out how to pronounce the brand name correctly first

[@williameakins2204]

Pronounce the i. It's Kl-eye-m, not Kl-eh-m. Like Climb w/o the b. Klim.

[@markmurphy1995]

Please pronounce KLIM correctly! 🙄

We've let the Americans abuse the word tomato and the word aluminium. It has to stop somewhere.
