Klim Rift Jacket
In pursuit of enhanced winter safety, we’ve engineered the Rift Jacket to offer floatation assistance, protection and comfort in the extreme conditions trail riders face. This is the first float assist GORE-TEX jacket in the world and it doesn’t need to be used with floatation bibs to work properly. Ascent Float System (AFS) is a flexible, breathable closed cell foam that we integrated in specially mapped channels that offer floatation benefits without compromising mobility and comfort. AFS foam doesn’t absorb water and provides significant insulating properties for warmth on top of the standard insulation. The Rift Jacket is a comprehensive trail snowmobile jacket for riders looking to maximize every winter riding experience.

Sizing Information
The chest sizes listed in the chart below are from Klim’s chart and I’ve double checked the actual jackets against the chart and it is accurate. But be careful… while the size Large is exactly what you’d expect with a 44” max chest, the smaller sizes are a bit smaller than normal and the bigger sizes are bigger than normal. For example, a men’s size Medium usually is styled with a 42” max chest and Klim’s medium is a 40” max chest. Same goes for larger sizes… an XXL is typically a 48” max chest, but Klim’s is a 52” max chest.
Given the variation from “normal” for smaller and larger sizes, I’d highly recommend you measure yourself and/or measure a jacket that fits you well (take the link below on how to do that). Then choose a jacket that is big enough for your chest.
Overall sleeve and torso lengths are generous and will work for most average height or taller riders. Those of shorter stature may find the sleeve and torso lengths to be longer than ideal.

Large | 44” | 44” |
XL | 48” | 48” |
XXL | 52” | 52” |
