The Poseidon 2 GTX trousers are the perfect complement to the aptly name jacket. Though, it’s a standout piece on its own. Taking into account its name, “Poseidon,” Greek god of the sea and the waters, you know just from its title that it has something to do with water. In this case, it’s to keep the water out and you warm, dry and protected. The outer shell is constructed by mixing 2-layer and 3-layer GORE-TEX® fabrics, which reduce water pick-up to a minimum. The fabric then provides not only the highest level of waterproofing but breathability, too. This way, no matter how wet it gets out there on the road, your skin can still breathe comfortably. And keep you keep feeling good regardless of what the weather is doing. On-demand airflow is provided by our patented VCS|aquadefence (Ventilation Control System). When opened, it provides ventilation to the legs. But if things take a turn for the worse, it’s very easy to close and is 100% waterproof.With the Poseidon 2 GTX Trousers, you get protection against the elements and also protection against the road.
