I found great price on this jacket on motorcyclegear.com and thought to share. $500 jacket for 192. I don't have any affiliation with this website. Very limited size/ color options but I think it's worth taking a look at. I got brown one, because that is only color they have in 2xl. At 500 bucks I would never buy piece of clothing. Good luck.

Thanks, Mike. I don't know why I couldn't find it when I went to their site and checked their First Gear jackets. Found the Teton, but not the Ranier. http://www.motorcyclegear.com/street/jackets_and_vests/textile_jackets?page=2

In any case, using your link, I see that they are sold out of size Large Raniers.

They are now showing the Dark Red/ Black Rainier in size Large as in-stock.

Just bought one (different color & in a bit bigger size though!) Looks like it will not be as 'drafty' as my Kilimanjaro.

I've had this jacket for a while.. Perfect for the S10 in the upcoming climate.

Loads of waterproof pockets, hooks and other "Gimmicks" that work well.

I got my sand/tan one. I like it.

Will be putting up a almost new Kilimanjaro Hi-Viz for sale soon.

Got mine today.
Had to exchange once for bigger size. I don't know how they made, but everything else FirstGear I wear 2x, this one I had to get in 3x. I'm a big guy...but not that big. Anyways. Good jacket good price. I'm happy ::008::

The TPG is a slimmer/more tailored cut than your normal boxy jacket, like the Kilimanjaro. I have lost enough weight that my XXL Kilimanjaro is now very baggy and the XXL (which fits more like a XL) Rainier TPG fits good.

You're not big per se, you're the muscular build! I can see why you would need to go up a size.


I've had mine since Spring and stayed dry as a bone. Something folks miss is that the liner alone is a nice jacket, sort of like a North Face Bionic.

The thing is when I put on 2x shel by itself it feels and looks fine. 2x destination layer same thing, looks and feels great. I put them together and I couldn't squeeze inside. 3x shel by itself is just ok, but destination layer is so huge, I can not wear it. I'm thinking I should call FirstGear and ask them to exchange 3x destination layer for 2x.
