Wet and muddy trails or warm sunny days. Notorious for its unpredictable weather, spring calls for MTB garments that can thrive in all weather conditions and deliver effective protection. GORE Wear’s extensive MTB product portfolio offers exactly the right range of kit for these kinds of conditions and comes in both men’s and women’s lines.
Wet and Muddy?
Carry the GORE C5 GORE-TEX Paclite Trail Shorts and GORE C5 GORE-TEX Trail Hooded Jacket in your backpack, and the weather can’t dampen your day! Extremely lightweight, ultra-packable, and waterproof – the GORE C5 GORE-TEX Paclite Trail Shorts have a loose fit, offer effective protection against rain and water splashing up from the road as well as packing down to a small size. These trail shorts are also available as full-length pants, and both were designed to be worn over MTB shorts and tights.
GORE C5 GORE-TEX Trail Hooded Jacket
Highly packable and lightweight weather defense
Combining two GORE-TEX tried and true technologies and years of experience, this is the only jacket you’ll need in foul weather while being small enough that you can carry it with you, so you’re always prepared. Rugged, weatherproof, and lightweight, the GORE-TEX PACLITE Plus fabric allows this jacket to pack down very small while strategically placed GORE-TEX Active panels increase breathability in key areas. Fitting it in your trail pack on a big day out will never be a problem. The MTB cut will easily fit over your regular riding clothes but is close enough to the body to prevent flapping when you truly get up to speed. This relaxed styling also means it won’t look out of place if you wear it off the bike. Hidden front pockets add to the versatility of the jacket, ensuring it will be used for a lot more than just trail time.
