The Dainese Tempest 2 D-Dry Pants keep you warm and dry for when the weather is cold and wet. CE level 1 armor protects your knees and a hip pocket is ready to take optional hip armor (sold separately). The second generation of the Tempest D-Dry pants now uses Cordura and D-Stone fabric for abrasion resistance. A removable thermal layer holds in heat and can be removed if the weather permits. Air vents on thighs direct air to the D-Dry membrane so the pants are better suited for cooler rides.
