Verified Customer Reviews for RST Pro Series Paragon 6 CE Textile Jacket
Customers praise the jacket's exceptional warmth, comfort, and build quality, often comparing it favorably to significantly more expensive gear. It excels in diverse weather conditions, including heavy rain and cold, and features useful elements like adjustable fittings and ample pockets. However, some critiques mention the jacket’s weight, occasional fit issues, and minor design flaws such as inadequate pocket sizes and less effective armor. Overall, it's considered a versatile, high-quality jacket with good value for money.
Not tried it in really heavy downpour, but well made, with double zipped closure and i think will be waterproof.
Seems to size slightly snug, I have been using it without liner, think will be a bit tight with the liner over some warm clothing.
Detachable neck muff looks light good idea, but a bit fiddly to close.
Firstly I commute to work everyday and have done for the last 15 years, in all weathers so my kit does get a good testing. I have never really owned any RST kit so had no real idea of how the brand was other than from reviews. So far I am impressed!
This jacket is heavy. Well far heavier than my previous jacket. I leave for work at about 6am and the mornings have been cooler. I have been wearing the jacket, with the liner in and just my work shirt. I have been perfectly warm. No wind gets through the double zip closure. The afternoons have been far warmer but the vents have been good. The rain I have been caught in has rolled off.
It has pockets galore. I did initially think that i inly had 2 pockets but then discovered that to the side of the main pockets there are additional zip pockets. There is plenty of room so the pockets are actually useful.
Plenty of adjustment on the jacket so you can get a good fit. Now I get that this is an end of the line item but while they are still about and at a great price, it is well worth a look. When my current trousers come to the end of their life, I will be getting the matching ones for the jacket. Possibly along with the gloves, I have been that impressed.
Bang for buck you cannot go wrong!
Great jacket and value for money. I had an earlier version for a few years and on this years NRR it leaked for the first time. Ordered this newer version then immediately took it on a tour of Scotland (I live in Cambs) so a long few days and everything but snow thrown at it. It behaved impeccably and when the sun was out then the vents made it more pleasant and stayed open in a couple of showers without letting the water inside.
Thoroughly recommended (and the jacket's joining zip is compatible with my earlier version trousers too!
What's not to like at this price and performance!
Go get one.
Finally found a Jacket that both looks smart and fits well and comfortable to wear. Great quality lining armoured in the right places and definitely warm for those colder days riding. The high vis stripes help it stand out without glaring. To sum up fits well looks great and does what it says on the tin.
Superb offering again. Very comfortable. Well made. Has the feel of a jacket in a much higher price range. Excellent service yet again
Only worn it twice but got caught in a heavy rain shower the jacket kept me bone dry. Size fit true to chart. Comfortable all day. I cannot think of any negative points against the jacket.
As for Sportsbikeshop, once again great service.
This is the second pro jacket the first one lasted 7 years
Jacket is heavy but you don't notice it once on the bike brilliant waterproof topcoat stopping the jacket getting wet and getting even heavier
So happy been wanting this for a while when I was sold out everywhere! Finally got it! Looking forward to testing it out in the fine Northern Irish weather! So far it's warm in the cold
This jacket is great! Swiss Army knife of jackets. The removable scarf bit is really comfortable and works. I wear a flip up helmet with com mic and get next to no wind come through to my neck or flushing the helmet. It's a heavy jacket, but I haven't used it without the liners. That day is close as the temps are getting milder it's starting to get warm under the jacket. In the lower single figure temps I don't even feel the outside temperature. Looking forward to seeing how it performs in the warmer days. The pockets are really useful and well protected from the rain. Water proof this definitely is, not a drop in hammering rain. The flouro yellow is very bright and really increases visibility to other road users.
Great jacket and great price. Jacket is warm and waterproof
This is a well made product with high levels of protection built in. It is also very versatile with opening vents and removable lining making this a jacket for multiple seasons.. It is quite heavy but this adds to a secure protected feeling this jacket gives you. Lastly the price point for this quality is really very good ..
Bought this along with the matching trousers. Great quality and very well made. Good protection and thermals can be taken out for warmer weather. Two good size pockets and large one on back of jacket. Safe and warm in any weather. Plenty air vents to open. The neck cover can be taken off if preferred. Quite weighty but that's expected due to quality. Good quality zips too. Feels comfy when riding. Sportsbikeshop is now my go to store as they are excellent. Either in store or on line. Perfect. Well pleased.
Brilliant jacket
Well worth the money, I only wear a t-shirt underneath and it's toasty warm in 5c + weather
I'm a 38" chest and bought the medium which fits great and allows you to get another layer underneath if required. The jacket feels great on and it lovely and warm. Can be cinched in at the waist to tailor the fit too.
Plenty of vents but only used it in the cold so far so can't vouch for their effectiveness.
Decent waterproof pockets on the front with good zips.
On the whole a lot of jacket for the money. Very happy with it and it looks great too.
Top service from SBS as always
Started well, really warm, cosy etc but I got soaked first time I used it in the rain, especially my arms.
Well designed, well made.
The jacket has really effective wind protection and cold protection.
Don't expect it to be waterproof though, you need good rain suit for that. But I rode it in drizzling conditions and came home dry.
Another thing I noticed, it is fairly easy to clean after winter rides. Dirt just doesn't stick on, probably because of water repellent coating.
total quality product. Warm, good fit and well made. First time out on a colds day ride and it kept me warm and dry 100%.
last few days it's been down to -3c on my 30mile daily commute, I'd normally have broken out the base layers and heated waistcoat by now but still just in a work shirt and Paragon 6 jacket, wish I could say the same for the Wolf trousers I bought a few months before, which leave my legs chilly in the same conditions.
Sizing is correct if not a little big, it was the only jacket that fitted my neck without being baggy. Personally would prefer zips at the cuffs as the velcro closers seem a little weak.

It's lined with a Quick-Dry mesh to absorb sweat, a removable 300gm quilted thermal lining for warmth and a fixed SinAqua Pro lining which when combined offer incredible warmth, waterproofing and breathability. The jacket comes with a pocket for a back protector and CE Level 1 shoulder and elbow armour along with shoulder cups and reflective panels for added visibility and protection. Added to this are the extra-large motion panels for superior levels of comfort and movement. Zipped chest, shoulder and sleeve vents allow maximum airflow in, through and out of the jacket, with grippy rubberised zips for easy adjustment with gloves on or in wet conditions. Additional pop studs on the chest vents allow air to flow through the jacket while riding, and thanks to the SinAqua Pro lining, the vents can stay open in the rain.
On top of this, pop studs and zips in the hip and waist help to tailor the fit to the rider, working in tandem with sleeve adjusters to ensure comfort. Even the smaller details have been developed to enhance comfort and weather protection. A removable padded throat-coat tucks under the helmet to protect the neck from wind and rain, while the large waterproof cargo and map pockets add practicality and protect keys and other valuables.
