Platinum Contributing Member Jimmy Snacks Posted October 17, 2017 Author Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) Got this baby in the mail yesterday and it’s the best 85 bucks I’ve ever spent on a coat...came better than advertised and the seller shipped it I believe from BC and I got it fast! BTW these offset zippers should be mandatory...awesome. Edited October 17, 2017 by Biggie Smails Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you have a lifetime warranty on that coat also... Motorfist guarantees the quality and performance of all of our products. Motorfist’s Lifetime* Warranty Plus covers all eVent jackets, bibs, and pants against failure in materials and/or workmanship for the normal life of the product. If requested, we’ll even provide you with a loaner jacket, pant, or bib while processing your claim (that’s the “Plus” part). Backed by the Lifetime* Warranty Plus, you’ll never miss that perfect Bluebird snowmobile day. Edited October 17, 2017 by Rigid1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that is quality customer service...it’s a 2XL which is what I normally wear and the sleeves are a tad long but no big deal. Can’t wait for a nice cold rainy fall day so I can test her out walking the dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted October 17, 2017 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted October 17, 2017 Checked out their stuff at the Milwaukee snow show. Damn nice but pricey. I like their layering system more so than their lined coats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going to contact MF tomorrow and see about a warranty on my bibs..I have definite tears in the inside of legs where my boots rub..Not really their fault but I have a tear around one of their logos on my thigh that is stitched on, now thats not my fault. So Im going to see about warranty or a repair..keep you all posted how they do me.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
