What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I've worn the Refuge Pant through some of the wettest rides and they've never soaked through. The breathability is what really sets them apart-especially with those big thigh vents. Add in the reinforced seat and reflective trim, and you've got a bombproof pair of pants ready for commuting or touring in any weather." When the weather doesn't let up, neither do we-and the Showers Pass Refuge Pant is built for that same mindset. Designed with 3-layer Elite(TM) waterproof-breathable fabric, these high-performance rain pants offer full storm protection with exceptional airflow, keeping us dry on the outside and cool underneath, even during high-output efforts. Updated for 2025 with a PFAS-free construction, they feature a perforated reinforced seat for in-saddle durability and airflow, articulated knees with reflective hits, and ankle zips for easy layering over shoes. Thigh vents dump heat fast, while a thigh pocket stays accessible while pedaling. Whether we're grinding through a wet commute or packing for a long-distance tour, these pants keep comfort high and moisture out.
