Description

The KLIM Tek Vest is built for riders who understand that steering posts, handlebars, and tree branches all become significantly less funny at high speed. Designed specifically for snowmobilers looking to protect their torso from debris and steering column impacts, the Tek Vest combines serious upper-body protection with lightweight mobility and surprisingly breathable comfort. Built with a vented ripstop nylon shell and flexible UHMW armor construction, the Tek Vest delivers outstanding cut resistance and impact protection without feeling like you strapped a folding chair to your chest. The action-cut design maintains a full range of motion while adjustable waist tension allows riders to choose between maximum airflow or extra lower-back support. Lightweight, flexible, and built for aggressive riding, the Tek Vest is basically designed for riders whose definition of "technical terrain" usually ends with somebody saying "you good?" afterward.
