REV'IT! Defender 3 GTX Pants

REV'IT! Defender 3 GTX — All-Weather Adventure Pants, CE AA

The Defender 3 GTX is REV'IT!'s flagship adventure touring pant, built around a GORE-TEX Pro laminate for guaranteed waterproofing without a separate liner. AA rated under EN 17092-3:2020 — the second-highest abrasion class for separate pants.

Materials & Vegan Verification

750D PWR Shell outer (100% polyamide — nylon). GORE-TEX Pro 3-layer laminate integrated into the chassis. PWR Ripstop reinforcement at high-impact zones. Fully verified vegan. No leather anywhere: the reinforcements use polyamide, not cowhide. All zippers and hardware are synthetic. GORE-TEX is a fluoropolymer membrane — no animal content.

Verdict

The Defender 3 GTX sets the standard for serious touring pants. GORE-TEX Pro means actual waterproofing, not "water resistant until it rains hard." AA certification means you're protected at the speed of real riding. Selected as the benchmark against which every other pant in this catalog is measured.

Verify current certification at point of purchase.
