Stay Comfortable, and Visible

When the sky opens up and lets loose with a torrent of cold soaking rain, you need rain gear that you can count on. Harley-Davidson riding gear is made to maximize your comfort when things get wet by providing more potent water resistance, increased breathability, and greater visibility on the road. Harley-Davidson rain gear features fully seam sealed construction, as well as double taped seams in high stress areas of the clothing to prevent leaking. The breathable fabric used for HD rain gear utilizes micro pores to allow moisture to escape your rain suit, without allowing it in, meaning you not only stay dry, but you don’t get buildup of perspiration inside your gear after an extended ride. Harley-Davidson rain gear is also designed to make you safer on the road thanks to the high profile visibility features. When the rain is falling driver visibility is always reduced, and drivers are more likely to be distracted, so the strategically placed 3M™ reflective material keep you in site from every angle so drivers can keep you on their radar.

Awesome Features

When you choose Harley-Davidson rain gear you can be sure that you’re choosing a setup that is purpose built for riding a motorcycle in the rain. This apparel is designed to provide a perfect ride, and it’s the little details that really shine when you get your gear on. The inner leg of HD rain pants are made with a heat resistant design, so that you don’t have to worry about melting your pants on your exhaust pipe. The hood of an HD rain jacket is designed to fit over your riding helmet, so you don’t have to endure a steady trickle of cold water down your bike, while the adjustable cuffs and waistband allow you to snug up the fit around your wrists and waist so you effectively seal out rain. To keep your boots and socks dry, riding pants feature a stirrup so your pant cuff stays securely below the top of your boot. Even the backside of your riding pants is designed for a better ride with a no-slip design that will keep your rear end firmly in the seat.

Is it time for Gear?

You might think that you’re already covered in terms of rain gear, after all, you’ve had that old rain suit stuffed in your saddlebag for years and you hardly ever use it, that should be enough, right? Well, the truth of waterproof materials is that the water resistant components will break down over time, especially if not properly dried and cared for after use. If you pull off your riding pants and just cram them into your saddlebag, you may find that after only a few years they start to deteriorate. The average life of rain gear that isn’t carefully taken care of is about three years, so even if you picked up a suit a few years back, it may have become less than effective since you purchased it. Keep in mind, when you buy Harley-Davidson rain gear here at Barnes Harley-Davidson, our rain gear comes with a one year warranty, so you’ll never be stuck with a substandard product, your ride really does matter to us.
