Rain showers in the Netherlands often arrive without much warning, and once your motorcycle pants are wet, they won't dry easily while you're on the road. That's why a pair of compact rain pants should have a permanent place in your pannier, tank bag or under your seat. We only sell rain pants specifically designed for motorcycle use: built to withstand high speeds and with enough adjustment options to prevent flapping in the wind.
Four things determine how practical a pair of rain pants really is:
Also look for reflective details on the legs and a non-slip seat panel: wet rainwear can easily slide around on your motorcycle seat.
Motorcycle rain pants are an outer layer: they keep out water and wind, but don't provide abrasion resistance or impact protection on their own. EN 17092 classes (A, AA and AAA) and certified knee and hip protectors apply to the motorcycle pants or motorcycle jeans worn underneath. Always wear rain pants over proper protective motorcycle gear, never over regular jeans.
Do you mainly commute? A lightweight pair of rain pants that's quick to put on and features side zippers is the most practical option; simply keep them with you at all times. For long touring rides, choose a more durable model with taped seams and a roomier cut that fits comfortably over adventure gear. For sporty riding, a closer-fitting race cut feels more comfortable on the bike.
Complete your rain gear with overgloves and boot covers; wet hands and feet can ruin a ride faster than wet legs. For your luggage, a dry bag or rain cover is the logical addition.
Order an in-stock pair of rain pants before 4:00 PM on a working day and we'll ship them the same day. We offer free shipping within the Netherlands on orders over €50. Want to try them on over your own motorcycle gear first? Visit our store in Amsterdam, open seven days a week. We'll be happy to help you find the right size.
Motorcycle rain pants are worn over your motorcycle pants. Thanks to elasticated sections and adjustable or zippered legs, you can easily pull them on over your motorcycle boots.
A good pair of motorcycle rain pants will keep your legs dry and comfortable during heavy showers. However, no pair of pants is completely and indefinitely waterproof during prolonged, heavy rain. Look for details such as sealed seams and adjustable legs, which help keep water out.
Because rain pants are designed to be worn over your motorcycle gear, you can often choose the same size as your motorcycle pants. They should be roomy enough to pull on easily without being so loose that they flap in the wind. If you're unsure, check the sizing information on the product page or visit our store to try them on.
Our range includes brands such as REV'IT!, Alpinestars, Dainese, Richa, GMS, Ixon and Held. From affordable, compact rain pants that pack down small to more durable models with stretch for extra comfort.
Yes. Many riders choose a separate rain jacket and rain pants, so you only need to put on what you need. If you want to minimise the risk of water getting in around your lower back, a complete rain suit is a good alternative, as it provides full coverage as one complete piece.
