ABSTRACT:
A versatile weather-resistant, ventilated, and protective garment particularly for wear by operators, occupants, and passengers of motor-sports vehicles, such as motorcycles, other vehicles, and some open aircraft, includes a water-proof garment shell provided with a vent opening. The vent opening may be secured open or closed in a fair-weather configuration. for foul weather, the vent opening also includes a labyrinth seal structure in combination with a generally vertically-extending water-gutter structure so that wind-blown rain water and traffic mist, for example, will be blocked from entry into the garment. Water which does enter an outer portion of the vent openings, will be drained by the water-gutter structure. The garment also includes a cargo storage system having a storage area with plural pockets allowing the wearer to carry along small personal items in the garment. An opening of the ventilation structure also provides access to the cargo storage area. This cargo storage system is provided with a linearly continuous closure separating the storage area form the opening of the ventilation structure.
