REV’IT! Paramount GTX Adventure Touring Outfit
Constructed from extremely durable and waterproof 3L GORE-TEX and technology carried over from the world of drysuit diving, the Paramount GTX shields riders from all elements. By design and by construction, the Paramount GTX wears like an all-encompassing, waterproof oversuit, meaning you can wear the one-piece over dedicated base and mid layers or simply put it on over your everyday attire. The 100%-weatherproof outer shell and the TIZIP MasterSeal zipper keep out precipitation, while the patented VCS|AquaDefence waterproof ventilation and several tactically positioned ventilation zippers allow riders to adjust to all conditions imaginable.
The advantages of the design transcend mere weatherproofing. By eliminating the gap between jacket and pants — or overlap of materials — the one-piece Paramount GTX suit offers remarkable riding comfort, even over longer distances. This is because the entire suit is suspended from the shoulders only, without clinging to the hips, resulting in unprecedented on-bike range of motion.
In addition, from the CE Level 2 protectors on the back, shoulders, elbows and knees to REV’IT!’s almost imperceptible CE-level 1 SEESMART armor on the hips, all the protective elements are position-adjustable to your preference.
