The Wii Jackets provide Excellent protection for the Wii Remote. I couldn't see anything breaking or get damanged while you have this on. In the front of the Wii Jacket it provides lots of layers of rubber so if you bang or hit something it won't damange your wii remote or the object that you hit. In the back of the Wii Jacket it also has layers of rubber, but not as think than the ones in the front. I tested hitting my TV with the Wii remote and neither my TV or Wii jacket got damaged. (I was AMAZED at this) The only problem i have is that there is no Protection for the Sides of the Wii Remote. What if you accidently throw it and the side of the Wii Remote hits your wall, or another object? I had an Image in my head of that happening someday to me . Mabey i gueese they put no protection there is because your hand is there. Say if you were play Zelda and you Slashed Sideways Your hand hit the TV. That has happen to me before. I was thankfull that my hand hit the TV and not the remote, but what if you were moving the we remote sideways and you let go and then your wii remote hits something on it's side?? That's why i make sure i have LOTS of Space when i play, So remember just becuase the Wii Jacket has protection doesnt mean you dont have to be carefull of your sorrundings. You still do.
I give a 9/10 Rating on Protection of you Wii Remotes.
The Grip
I think the grip of the Wii Remote is HORRIBLE. When you Sweat that controllers sometimes Slips out your hand! I hate that so much! It's only at the bottom of the Wii Remote that does that. It has theese little lines that run at the bottom. I think it works just slightly better than without a Wii Jacket. I have kind of adjusted to it a little holding the Wii Remote a little tighter than usual. Some people may not have a problem with this though. Then when you sweat you lose your grip a little. That's the only thing i don't like about the Wii Remote!
I give a 6/10 Rating on Grip!
Comfort
Many people who dont have a Wii Jacket say that it doesn't look comfortable. It actually is really comfortable. I love the feel of it. It feels so smoooth and soft. It is also comfortable when to you switch the Controler Sideways to play VC Games.
I give a 10/10 on comfort.
And my Final Rating for the Wii Jacket is am 8/10

Nice little review there. It's interesting what you are saying about the grip and sweating.
I'm due to pick mine up on tuesday, but seeing as I have a charging station, I doubt they will get used that much. I've never had a problem with the Wii remotes anyway so I won't be too disapointed
Do you keep yours on constantly then? And do you think there will come a time when you miss not having them on and go back to how they used to be?

Yea i keep them on all the time. The only time i take them off is when i have to change the batteries. I like them better when there on becuase there comfortable. I dont really miss it when i i didnt have a Wii Jacket off.

I have a charging station as well, FooFan, but it is easy to slip the bottom off so you can place it in the charger, and easy again to slip them back on. It doesn't take long at all.

Sorry for hijacking your thread KZF!!
Ah that's good to know then!
I had some 3rd party covers for a while and they were such a hassle to get on and off that I've just left them off now, but if the Ninty ones are pretty easy to slip on and off they might get used a bit more

Yea and you dont have to take the whole thing off to charge it. you just slip it up and then put your Wii remote on the Charger.

Hmmm I agree with the Sweat thing but I'm used to holding it tight when I'm sweating and I think that those little lines on the back hurt when your sweaty because when you hands are sweaty they are softer and then the lines press in your hands when holding the wii remote makeing it sorta... sore.
But still despite that its really great and great sweat protection aswell so no sweat can get on the remote.

The lines on the back dont hurt me. It just depends on how hard you are holding them. I found out another thing about the Wii Remote. You know how is was talking about the Wii Remote hitting something on the side they wont happen? If it is going straight at a wall or an object the front of the wii remote and the back are pushed out so it wont be able to hit the side of the wii remote! Try it to put your wii Remote to the wall and you see the side of it wont be touching.

I don't find sweat a problem... now that I've said that, it'll annoy me.. and i'll be covered in sweat!
Here's a few more pics of the jacket. It'll give anyone who doesn't have one a better view of them.
