FAQs
Are hip protectors included?
The trousers come with Level 2 knee protectors, but they are only prepared for hip protectors, which are sold separately.
Can these be worn over jeans?
These are designed to be worn as primary trousers, not over-pants, to ensure the armor remains in the correct position for safety.
Are these trousers waterproof?
Yes, they feature a D-Dry membrane which is both waterproof and breathable for year-round protection.
What is the CE rating of these trousers?
The Dainese Tempest 4 D-Dry Trousers are certified to EN 17092 Class A standards.
Can I connect these to any jacket?
They feature a jacket-trouser attachment system. While designed for Dainese jackets, they can often be compatible with other gear if the zip lengths and types match.
Troubleshooting
Knee armor is uncomfortable or shifts position
Adjust the internal height adjustment mechanism within the knee pocket to ensure the protector centers correctly over your patella while in the riding position.
Waterproofing seems less effective over time
The D-Dry membrane needs to be free of road grime to stay breathable. Regularly clean the outer shell to maintain its moisture-wicking and waterproofing capabilities.
Airflow is insufficient in summer
Remove the thermal lining completely and ensure the thigh air vents are fully opened. Ensure no undergarments are blocking the internal vent pathways.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, follow these guidelines: First, adjust the height of the Pro-Armor knee protectors by sliding them within the internal pockets to match your specific leg length. Second, utilize the hip and cuff adjustments to tailor the fit so the trousers sit snugly against your boots and waist. For cleaning, remove the thermal liner and follow the manufacturer's care instructions—typically a mild detergent wash and air drying. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the waterproof properties of the D-Dry membrane. Always ensure the jacket-trouser zipper is fully engaged before starting your ride to prevent wind and water from entering the gap between layers.
