Nicely detailed lining. Also, there’s a strip of reflective material along the bottom part of the SuperFabric on the upper shoulder.The collar can be opened and secured with a hook located on the left upper part of the neck.The collar tab uses hook-and-loop and the tab is part of the opening front flap on the left side of the jacket, so it’s not a separate piece.This Carese II jacket is a size large and it fits as expected, which is just about perfect for a 43″ chest and 34″ to 36″ waist. Back protector not included. A Gore-Tex Pro Shell jacket can cost up to twice the already-expensive list ($849.00) of the Carese II.Here’s something very curious though: there’s a “Gore-Tex” label on the inside of the jacket shell but, as far as we can tell, the shell is not Gore-Tex and does not include any Gore-Tex membrane nor any membrane liner or regular liner of any type.W.L. This jacket fits more like a Euro size 54, so the listed sizing seems about one size off.Note that a jacket like this — any motorcycle jacket, in fact — should be worn so it fits snugly to keep the protectors in place and this jacket is cut on a taper.Most American motorcycle riders wear their clothes 1-2 sizes too big and you can see this in many of the advertisements.This jacket is styled and cut very nicely to fit the body. Once every year I would go out and spend as little money as possible on the cheapest vinyl pants I could find in some bike shop’s bargain bin. It still looks new. It’s a snug fit when worn over the top of the shell, but it does work.Just one thing…too bad they didn’t add some high-viz color and/or reflective bits to the outside of the liner though, which would be there for when you really need it — in the rain and fog.Perhaps due to its dual-use personality and design, the Gore-Tex liner styling isn’t what we’d call svelte, so while it may be OK for wear around the campfire, it certainly isn’t something you’d want to wear out to dinner, unless you’re only going for a Big Mac.While some may think a separate and removable waterproof liner and no waterproofing on the outer shell fabric as a disadvantage, we’ll disagree, especially in this case, with its “Why didn’t I think of that?”, wear-it-over-the-shell design.Making the outer skin of the jacket shell waterproof would have meant compromising the ventilation, because very special attention would then have to be paid to the vent system to ensure the waterproof integrity.This makes manufacturing more complex and adds to the cost.In fact, if you want maximum ventilation and air flow with some waterproofing, it’s usually better to have a removable waterproof liner and pop as many holes as you need in the shell to get the air flowing through.The flip side of a non-waterproof outer shell fabric is that the outer shell can become soaked when you’re caught out in the rain, but modern fabrics dry quickly.And let’s face it — the vast majority of your riding will be in dry weather anyway, so optimize for the 80%, not the 20%.

The build quality, styling and the cut of the fabrics all conspire to give this jacket something of a je ne sais quoi quality where the overall feel is more than simply the sum of the features.Nice fit and styling. Non-locking zipper runners. But here’s a cool trick: the Gore-Tex liner is sized so that it can be worn.Ventilation was a primary concern in the Carese II’s design and there are vents all over the jacket, front, rear and sides.
It has a red zipper and a taffeta lining. They’re held open with four magnets on either side and this exposes a long mesh vent front and center, the perfect location to bring in gobs of fresh air.The interior of the Carese II jacket shell is also a standout, with its “3D” Coolmax mesh liner and very fine detailing.

Gore & Associates is usually very fussy about where and how their labels are used and displayed and the Gore-Tex label on the inside of the Carese II jacket shell is a bit confusing.Here’s another one: see that Gore-Tex label on the lower left front pocket? Our technologies. Fight over me a bit. So easy to cart around.Fourthly, do I look fine? Held Carese II Jacket Review. Probably not. This is a handy location to store a wallet or phone, although this pocket is not waterproof.Inside the shell, there’s another vertical pocket in the right side, mid-chest. OK, so it’s what Dr. Dretske, my Philosophy 101 teacher would call “protruded logic”.But it comes across better in the Held photos than it does in words… Our feeling is that you’ll need an insulating layer to really make it through winter however, although “Tretempi” wouldn’t sound as good. Apparently, the lower pockets are lined with Gore-Tex to make them waterproof. This can be used to store the waterproof liner.Attached to that pocket is another pocket with a horizontal zipper on top under a flap. It is made up of passionate bikers & still retains its' headquarters in the same picturesque Alpine town of Burgberg. Apparel.
