Verified Customer Reviews for Merlin Borderlands D3O Laminated Jacket
Understated Adventure Jacket
06 Oct 2025 by John
I couldn't find any user reviews of this jacket when I ordered but considering I couldn't find a bad review of any other Merlin jacket, I thought it was a pretty safe bet. Sure enough the jacket is everything I hoped for. Comfortable, warm, tough and you don't look like a power ranger. Would be nice if it came with back armour but it's a good price for a laminated jacket. Only thing I'd change would be to flip the pocket velcro covers so they face backwards as they're a bit of a fiddle to open. Great adjustability throughout the jacket.

Stylish Winter Jacket

I wanted somthing a bit different from the normal black stuff but needed a laminated jacket for winter touring and green laning. Tried on lots of kit but then noticed this. Fitted like a glove, nice cut and plenty of quality waterproof pockets. Used it loads and very comfortable incredibly well made.
