The Rev It Vertical Gore-Tex Motorcycle Trousers are designed for adult male riders seeking versatile, all-weather protection without a high price point. Their key benefit lies in the laminated Gore-Tex construction, offering waterproof, windproof, and breathable performance for multi-season comfort. A potential caveat is that while offering significant features, they are positioned as a value option, which might imply trade-offs in premium materials or advanced features compared to higher-end models. These trousers are equipped with advanced armor, a removable thermal liner, and adjustable fit points, making them a practical choice for touring and varied riding conditions.

FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for all seasons?

Yes, the Rev It Vertical Gore-Tex Trousers are designed for multi-season use thanks to their waterproof and breathable Gore-Tex membrane and the inclusion of a removable thermal liner. For very cold conditions, additional base layers may be beneficial.

What type of protection do these trousers offer?

They feature SeeFlex CE-Level 2 knee armor for high-impact protection and SeeSmart CE-Level 1 hip armor for essential safety at the hips.

How do I clean my Gore-Tex trousers?

Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a technical wash detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the DWR finish.

Can I adjust the fit of these trousers?

Yes, the trousers feature adjustable fit points at the waist, calves, and ankles to allow for a customized and secure fit.

What is the main benefit of the Gore-Tex material?

Gore-Tex provides a waterproof, windproof, and highly breathable barrier, keeping you dry from external moisture while allowing internal perspiration to escape, ensuring comfort in various weather conditions.

Are the knee protectors adjustable?

Yes, the SeeFlex CE-Level 2 knee protectors are adjustable in height via an internal pocket, allowing you to position them for optimal comfort and protection.

What is the purpose of the PWR|Shell stretch fabric?

The PWR|Shell stretch fabric is strategically incorporated to enhance flexibility and freedom of movement, contributing to rider comfort during long rides and active postures.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel wet inside during rain.

Ensure all zippers and closures are fully sealed. Check the Gore-Tex membrane for any tears or damage. If the DWR finish has worn off, reapply a suitable DWR treatment to the outer fabric.

Knee armor feels uncomfortable or misplaced.

Adjust the position of the CE-Level 2 knee armor within its internal pocket. Ensure the trousers are the correct size and fit for your leg length.

Thermal liner is difficult to attach/remove.

Ensure all zippers are aligned correctly before attempting to attach or remove the liner. Check for any obstructions or damage to the zippers.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Reactivate the DWR finish by tumble drying on a low heat setting as per the care instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or incorrect washing procedures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Rev It Vertical Gore-Tex Motorcycle Trousers come ready to wear. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal fit and protection. The knee armor is typically accessible via an internal pocket and can be adjusted for height by repositioning it within its sleeve. The thermal liner is attached via zippers and can be removed or reinstalled as needed.

Compatibility: These trousers are designed for general motorcycle riding. They are compatible with most riding boots due to adjustable ankle closures. They can be worn over base layers for added warmth and can be paired with a wide range of motorcycle jackets, ideally those with connection zippers for a secure two-piece suit setup.

Care: To maintain the Gore-Tex membrane's performance and the longevity of the trousers:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a technical wash detergent specifically designed for waterproof-breathable fabrics. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or regular laundry detergents, as they can clog the membrane's pores and degrade the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly after washing to remove all detergent residue.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct heat sources. Tumble drying can help reactivate the DWR finish.
  4. Re-Waterproofing: If water no longer beads on the surface of the fabric, the DWR finish may need to be reapplied using a spray-on or wash-in product suitable for Gore-Tex apparel. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
