Product Information
Full details
The RST Lightweight Over Trouser is a practical, essential solution for motorcyclists who need reliable weather protection without the bulk of traditional heavy gear. Designed for riders navigating unpredictable climates, these trousers provide a waterproof shield and enhanced visibility through reflective side detailing; however, because they are designed to be worn over existing riding pants, they lack the integrated impact armor found in dedicated riding trousers.

FAQs
Are these trousers armored?
No, these are strictly waterproof over-trousers and do not contain CE-rated impact armor.
Should I order my actual waist size?
Since they are designed to fit over your regular motorcycle pants, you may want to consider if you need extra room for thick layers, though the elasticated waist provides flexibility.
Can I wash these in a machine?
It is recommended to hand wash them gently with cold water to preserve the integrity of the waterproof fabric.
Will they keep me warm in winter?
They primarily serve as a wind and rain shell; they provide minimal insulation, so they are best paired with thermal base layers for cold weather.
How visible are the reflective details?
The reflective details are designed to catch light from headlights, significantly increasing your profile to other road users in dark conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking through seams during heavy downpours
Ensure the trousers are pulled up high enough to overlap with your jacket, and consider re-applying a water-repellent spray to the seams if the garment is older.
Trouser legs bunching up or dragging
Adjust the fit at the waist and ensure the cuffs are pulled down over your boots; use boot straps if necessary to maintain tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, select a size that comfortably accommodates your primary motorcycle trousers. When putting them on, ensure the cuffs are secured properly to prevent them from flapping in the wind or catching on the bike.
Care Instructions:
- Rinse off excess mud or road grime with cold water after a ride.
- Allow to air dry naturally in a shaded area away from direct heat sources, which can damage waterproof coatings.
- Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
- Store in a dry place once completely dry to prevent mildew.
