Measure by laying your jacket flat on a table, and measure the chest, making sure to go from side seam to side seam (near the armpit like in the photo below). It's very important that you reach the seam join on each side, even if you have to bend a little around the sides of the jacket. Compare your measurement to the size chart above.

Model in the photos is 6ft, 83kgs, has a 100cm chest and is wearing a size Large.
This jacket is epic! Fits over my riding jacket perfectly. Now permanently in my bag in case of bad weather. 45 min ride today in a down pour and bone dry!
Thanks for the review Luke! We're stoked to hear it fits over your riding jacket perfectly and that's awesome to hear that it's become a permanent part of your riding kit!
Have had this for about 2 weeks. The day I picked it up from the post office it was drizzling so I threw it on right away and instead of heading straight home I took a 100km detour, not planned, but it just felt great and I knew I had good rest conditions. It's not hot but if provides excellent wind proofing. Have since been in a heavy downpour on my way to work, arrived bone dry. The closure at the chest/neck works great, fully zipped up it isn't restrictive and it sits up under the protection of the chin bar so no water gets through at any point. I love the look and general comfort of it too, I've found myself tending toward my lighter weight Sa1nt "shacket" with the anorak over the top even in colder and wetter conditions when I would always have gone for a heavier jacket. The colour is nice, I try to stay away from black as I commute a lot but would rather not go full hi viz, this strikes a great balance.
Hi Jonathan, thanks for such a thorough and in depth review! We're so stoked to hear how well the Anorak handled the wet weather from the very first use. Cheers again!
I’ve had this thing a couple of weeks now and it’s great. Three HEAVY rainstorms and I stayed bone dry.
It looks good enough that I just keep it in my bag all the time and wear it on and off the bike.
The flexibility of the fabric is a key advantage this has over a lot of other rain layers. Usually they feel restrictive over my gear, but this one moves with me easily and comfortably.
Now AKIN, MAKE ME SOME PANTS LIKE THIS!!!!!!
Hey Dustin, thanks for such an incredible review! We're so stoked to hear how well the anorak performed in such heavy rainstorms!
We definitely have some exciting stuff on the way that should make you very happy! Best bet is to keep you eyes glued to our email newsletter. Cheers!
If you ride ADV then you know how important layers are. This beauty helps cover the spread by adding that final wind and rain blocking layer. The features all work perfectly, and it packs small and light. Perfect addition to the kit.
Hi Max, I'm really stoked to hear that the Anorak is the perfect addition to your kit! Thanks for such an awesome review!
I loved this jacket until this morning, second ride in the rain on the M1 and it didn't make it😔 I got to Tafe and it went through it and through my jacket, my shirt was wet😕
Hi Isabelle - I'm so sorry to hear that your shirt got wet! This is very strange as the fabric we've used for this jacket has been tested and is 10k Waterproof (minimum) and the garment itself is also seam sealed to stop any water sneaking through the seams. If possible, could you please shoot me an email with more info on the areas that your shirt got wet, and also what type of bike you're riding? I want to make sure we get you a solution for this problem! Cheers, Max (info@akinmoto.com)
