The Only Three Season Jacket to Consider

Hoss - 2/4/2010

My Discovery is the Belstaff Discovery, same as the BMG. It's worn daily for my commutes and it serves well on my travels...thus far no complaints, no leaks, just a great three season jacket. well one minor complaint>>>>that damn belt bunches up in back, nothing major, just looks crappy.

Excellent piece of kit

Dodger - 9/12/2009

Absolutely waterproof .
Best value jacket on the market .
My only niggle is the elasticated belt ,but a pair of scissors soon cured that - I much prefer a seperate belt .
I think you'd have a damn hard job finding a better jacket .


Discovery

rottenbiker - 2/26/2009

I wore the discovery jacket in the Iron Butt Rally in downpours, desert heat, cold nights and never had a complaint. It is an awesome jacket. Mine now has about a hundred thousand miles on it still looks great and does the job>

I Prefer over my Aerostitch Roadcrafter

Henry Dorn - 3/25/2011

I want to say how happy I am with the quality of the BMG
Pioneer pants I got from you as well. They mate perfectly with the
Discovery Jacket and have held up terrifically thru several winters of cold
wet North Carolina riding. I prefer the Discovery/Pioneer combination
over my Aerostich Roadcrafter suits when the weather is truly foul.


100 mph Crash wearing Discovery

One Happy Brit - 11/24/2008



Hi Guys

Just received the jacket. Great job! As someone who used to have the Discovery jacket when it was sold under the Belstaff brand, I'm really pleased to see the same quality standards have been maintained.

The Discovery is a true 3 season jacket with excellent wind and water repellent qualities. In a typically mild British winter, when temperatures hover around freezing, the thermal lining is almost too warm when riding around town but the collar-mounted throat protector works really well on cross-country rides where windchill is a real concern.

In summer the vents work very well and are well situated. The way that the front of the jacket has a combination of zip fastening and very sturdy popper buttons means that on hot days the jacket can be worn partially but securely fastened, with the zip partially fastened and the buttons completely fastened, allowing air to pass through the jacket but with the jacket unlikely to burst open in the event of a crash.

I had a 100 mph crash wearing a Discovery jacket. I slid up the road, mostly on my back. The only damage to the jacket was a couple of 1 inch rips on the sleeves. I broke 6 ribs on impact, all at the front of my chest, but the armour protected both my arms and back from any injury. I had no abrasion injuries at all.

I'm really pleased to see that you have brought such an excellent range of textile jackets back onto the market. Frankly, when I compare other products to the BMG Discovery jacket, I find them wanting.

Cheers fellas!

One Happy Brit.






discovery jacket

mike e - 10/6/2011

Purchased this jacket for a 8,000 mile trip this summer, TX-AK-TX. Fantastic, best ever. Rained on 19 days, never leaked, always warm (sometimes too warm) and most of all comfortable.
