Gore C5 GORE-TEX Paclite Trail Shorts
For an extremely robust and durable outer layer that will protect you from the wind and rain, the Gore C5 GORE-TEX Paclite Trail Shorts are perfect to stash away when not using and quickly put on when the weather requires that you do.
Designed for all weather conditions, the C5 Paclite Shorts can be quickly worn to provide you with a protective layer to help you shield from changeable conditions. The shorts use GORE-TEX Paclite Plus, a technology that will keep you protected. The material has exceptional waterproofing protection, blocking all moisture out and stopping it from reaching the surface of the skin. As well as this, the material will wick moisture away from the surface, making it bead before rolling off to keep you feeling lightweight and comfortable. Despite sealing moisture out, the material will still allow air to enter and exit freely, and additionally, it will encourage vapour from sweat out. This will work over a long period of time to keep you ventilated and comfortable. The material will prevent the chill from causing discomfort, as it is windproof. This will make sure that you feel comfortable even when in exposed spots. Should you feel too warm and like the shorts are no longer required, they can be packed away extremely easily and stored in a pocket or bag.
The design of the shorts is not skin tight, but equally it isn't baggy, providing you with a sporting silhouette that isn't restrictive in any way. The waistband is extremely grippy, holding itself in position comfortably. As well as this, the shorts have a flat cord, which will allow you to adjust them extremely easily for a perfect fit. The shorts have a zippered pocket which is also waterproof. This makes it easy to store small items away securely and comfortably. Reflective details will improve your visibility, making it safer for you to ride in darker conditions, as you will be easier to spot. Flat-lying seams within the shorts will remove the risk of irritation being caused by rubbing and chafing.
