FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for summer riding?

Yes, the GORE-TEX fabric is breathable and the removable thermal liner can be taken out, making them suitable for warmer conditions. However, for very hot climates, dedicated mesh or highly ventilated pants might offer superior airflow.

What is the difference between SEESMART and SEEFLEX armor?

SEESMART protectors are typically CE-Level 1 and are designed to be thinner and more flexible for everyday comfort. SEEFLEX protectors are CE-Level 2, offering a higher standard of impact protection and are generally used for areas requiring maximum safety like the knees.

How do I determine the correct leg length?

The product comes in different leg lengths (e.g., Short, Regular, Long). Consult the Rev It sizing chart and measure your inseam to select the best fit. Proper leg length is crucial for the knee armor to function correctly.

Can I wear these trousers with any motorcycle boots?

The trousers are designed to be compatible with most types of motorcycle boots. The ankle adjustment allows for a snug fit around various boot designs.

What is the EN 17092 rating?

The trousers have an EN 17092-3:2020 rating of Class AA. This signifies a high level of abrasion resistance and impact protection suitable for street riding and touring.

How often should I wash my Gore-Tex trousers?

It's recommended to wash them periodically, especially after heavy use or when the performance (like water repellency or breathability) seems diminished. Follow the care instructions for best results, typically after a few trips or at the end of a riding season.

Troubleshooting

Water ingress despite GORE-TEX

Ensure the main zipper and any external pockets are fully closed. Check the condition of the GORE-TEX membrane and consider re-applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment if its performance has diminished. Make sure the garment has been washed according to care instructions with appropriate detergents.

Knee armor not sitting correctly

Adjust the height of the knee armor within its pocket. Ensure the trousers fit properly at the waist and inseam, as incorrect sizing can affect armor placement.

Thermal liner is difficult to install/remove

Ensure the liner is oriented correctly (check for any 'front' or 'back' labels) and that all attachment points (snaps or zippers) are aligned before attempting to secure it.

Reduced breathability

The breathability of technical fabrics can be affected by dirt and oils. Wash the trousers according to the care instructions using a specialized textile cleaner to restore optimal performance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing and breathability thanks to GORE-TEX.
  • Comprehensive protection with CE-Level 2 knee and CE-Level 1 hip armor.
  • Adaptable for different seasons with a removable thermal liner.
  • Comfortable for long rides due to stretch panels and adjustable fit.
  • Good value for the features offered in a touring-focused pant.

Cons

  • May not offer the same level of articulation for aggressive riding styles.
  • The primary material is Nylon, which might be less abrasion-resistant than some premium alternatives in extreme scenarios.
  • Fit can be specific; checking size charts and leg lengths is crucial.
  • While versatile, the design is focused on touring comfort and utility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Rev It Vertical Gore-Tex Motorcycle Trousers come equipped with SEESMART CE-Level 1 hip protectors and SEEFLEX CE-Level 2 knee protectors. The knee protectors are housed in pockets that allow for height adjustment to ensure they sit correctly over your knee. Simply open the pocket, slide the protector to the desired position, and close the pocket. The waist, calf, and ankle adjustments can be made using the integrated straps or zippers to achieve a secure and comfortable fit over your riding boots.

Compatibility:

These trousers are designed to be worn over base layers and can be paired with most Rev It jackets using the connection zipper (zipper length may vary by jacket model). They are suitable for use with a wide range of motorcycle boots. For optimal warmth in very cold conditions, consider layering with the detachable thermal liner or a thermal base layer.

Care:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle. Do not bleach, do not tumble dry, do not iron, and do not dry clean.
  • Detergent: Use a special wash for waterproof/breathable textiles (e.g., Nikwax Tech Wash or similar). Do not use fabric softener or harsh detergents.
  • Drying: Hang dry away from direct heat or sunlight. To reactivate the water-repellent finish, tumble dry on low heat for 20 minutes after washing, or iron on a low setting with a towel between the iron and the fabric. Follow the specific care instructions on the garment's label.
