The body fabric of the Basilisk IR Pant is a highly abrasion-resistant eVent® Alpine ST 3-layer, using eVent's proprietary Direct Venting™ technology. Heat and water vapor move directly through the air-permeable membrane, allowing your body to breathe freely and stay comfortable. With a 30,000mm rating on the water column (100 feet of water pressure), an MVTR of 10,000 g/m/d, .06cfm air permeability, and DWR coating, this pant is focused on keeping you dry when riding in wet conditions. Double external storm flaps and internal guttered construction provide additional weather resistance while maintaining ventilation.

The Basilisk IR Pant features integrated 3D RHEON™ LABS body armor, helping the pant remain breathable yet protected in a wide range of conditions on extended trips. At its core, RHEON™ is an energy-absorbing superpolymer. Soft and flexible in its natural state, it intelligently stiffens when subjected to force. Made to feel invisible, its designed to flex to the curvature of the body for an adaptive fit. The updated 3D design improves the anatomical fit and helps keep the armor in place during a crash. 

What makes RHEON™ different is its patented algorithmic design and 3D printing process. The combination makes it both lighter, and more protective. The unique cell packing allows for better impact absorption while allowing air to flow naturally around the rider, making RHEON™ Armor the most breathable protection on the market. 

The knees feature added SuperFabric® ceramic platelets on a 600D waterproof/breathable overlay for added strength and durability. With double-layer fabric, you can crash repeatedly and still stay dry. Our zippers are top-of-the-line water-resistant YKK® Aquaguard PU-coated zippers: they won’t clog with dust and grime and are easy to operate one-handed with gloves. Two cargo pockets on the upper thigh keep your essentials close at hand or provide quick stash options when off the bike.

To help keep you cool, there are six vents: two knee scoop vents, two fold-back thigh vents, and two large exhaust vents behind the leg. Open all the vents in hot weather and let the cooler outside air envelop your upper thigh.

On the inside, we eliminated hanging liners entirely, reducing weight, bulk, and heat. Laminated patches protect the tricot lining in high abrasion areas like the knees and lower leg. The leg openings are cut extra wide to allow for plenty of room to fiddle with and adjust your boots. And they’re adjustable, too, with waterproof internal gussets and overlapping Velcro flaps.
