I've recently got one of these and wore it for a week straight in the Highlands at the start of the month.

I can't reccomend it enough.

Big gore fan here.

Outdry or Shakedry. I've given up on anything that relies on a DWR coating.

I have a shakedry that i use for road duties. It's brilliant but I want something that seems a bit sturdier for off road duties.

I've got a couple of gore jackets and a few pairs of their shorts. Seem great quality. Just looking for a hooded version for the really bad days.

the best thing about the Outdry is I once took it off when i got in and left it in the porch and forgot about it after heavy rain,Next day I picked it up expecting it to have saked out but it was 100% dry on the inside
Great stuff but warmer than shakedry but sturdier

I've just taken a punt on the yellow jacket, using the extra £10 discount code.

Interested to know if they deliver OK Colin. I love my Outdry too, but it's grey (I bought it mainly for mountain biking) and when I put it on while a heavy shower blew through on a road ride yesterday, I took my hi-viz windproof off, and it seemed a bit nonsensical that I could be either dry or visible, but not both.

Ha! Almost exactly my thoughts on it, hence ordering the bright one in addition to the grey/olive one I already have.

I've gambled on a large Colin.
Thanks for pointing out the £10 discount as would't have noticed that
Nearly Half the price off the gore one I was looking at and I like the fact it has the venting under the arms.

They tend to fit slightly larger and be quite spacious / boxey / American fit in the body, if you haven't had one before. I am usually a solid XL but am a Large in these jackets, just FYI.

Ah baws I would usually for for a medium/large in jackets do maybe I should try and change this order.

[Cheeky Monkey]

It's by no means a universal truth and depends a bit on your own proportions and how you like a jacket to fit. Plus all of mine are the stock that was probably an earlier production run / models i.e. from a couple of years ago when there were right bargains to be had.

Might be worth a shout out to anyone with the latest versions to see.

You'll be reet

Speaking of size, can anyone comment on the body/arm length on the EX Reign specifically? I swapped my medium Outdry for a large because it was a bit short in the body and way too short in the arms, but it is a bit baggy as I'm quite thin. Doesn't really bother me, but it's more relevant on the road bike.

Ditto

[frogatthefarriers]

I’m in the market for a rain jacket too and tempted by this Reign that lots of you seem to like, but on the pictures it looks a bit short in the back. I’m wondering if it’ll cover my backside if I’m leaning forward to the handlebars.

Can somebody reassure me that my bum'll stay dry?

[Adventurer]

Going to be controversial, as I will suggest my bikepacking jacket that I use.

Softer than a short shell and waterproof, able to vent and wear all day.
Fantastic jacket. Love mine
