KLIM Torrent Storm Collar | Initial Impressions

[Grumpy Goat]

Alright Wayne, now I have to ask. How often are you just walking around the house, neighborhood, shops, etc. with your helmet and neck warmer on? And at what foot speed does said neck warmer start to creep down

Hahahah ... Dave you caught me out!! Haven't fully tested the storm collar yet but if I walk really fast, almost at a trot, and I don't have it tucked in under the helmet, the apparent wind right away pushes it down quite a bit, to where it offers minimal protection.

In all seriousness though, I am hopeful - but a little skeptical - about its performance on the bike in real rain. How heavy the rain and how fast the speed will be determining factors on whether the water gets in.

Going on a 4-day road trip to DeGray Lake State Park starting Friday, and that may end with some rain on the way back on Monday. I will try and do a wet review at that time.
