KLIM STOW AWAY & ECLIPSE: Gore-Tex Jackets Built for Anyone Who Refuses to Stay Inside

Motorcycle brand KLIM may be best known for high-end riding gear, but the new STOW AWAY (and the women’s ECLIPSE) prove that serious waterproof protection isn’t only for two wheels. Designed for motorcyclists, hikers, overlanders, cyclists and anyone who spends long days in unpredictable weather, these jackets bring KLIM’s premium Gore-Tex engineering to everyday outdoor life.

The design brief is simple: maximum protection, minimum bulk. A two-layer Gore-Tex® shell–backed by the brand’s “Guaranteed to Keep You Dry®” promise–blocks wind and rain while a moisture-wicking mesh liner keeps the inside comfortable. Large under-arm vents with dual sliders let you fine-tune airflow on climbs, trail runs or when you’re working around camp.

Details matter when the weather turns foul. A roll-away hood seals out driving rain, Velcro-closed cuffs lock onto gloves, and a draw-cord hem keeps cold drafts out. 3M™ Scotchlite™ reflective elements add low-light visibility for roadside repairs, night hikes or late-evening dog walks.

Packability is the ace in the hole

The jacket stuffs neatly into one of its own side pockets and compresses with built-in straps so you can lash it to a rucksack, bike frame or pannier. No separate bag, no juggling—just grab, pack and go.

The ECLIPSE offers the same technical spec in a women-specific cut, proving that weatherproof performance doesn’t have to look or feel like borrowed kit.
