The alpinestars Andes V3 Waterproof Trousers builds on the greatness of the Andes V2 and brings it to the next-generation. Drystar waterproofing, high levels of breathability and abrasion-resistance. This formidable yet lightweight jean is made from advanced poly-fabric textile, integrated with Alpinestars' proprietary Drystar membrane that is impervious to water and allows perspiration for complete all-ride comfort. A detachable thermal liner allows you to adapt to the outside temperature, while a new, direct ventilation system (DVS) consisting of two zippered air vents at the inner thighs allows cool air to enter the trousers and exhaust hot air out the rear. Removable Nucleon Flex Plus armour at the knees provide internal impact protection, with compartments at the hips to fit additional hip armour (sold separately). The knee areas are textured with additional material for enhanced abrasion-resistance, and the legs pre-contoured with stretch panels at the knee for freedom of movement. The trousers are a tapered cut for enhanced comfort and style and boast a waist adjustment consisting of buckle and stretch material that provides a customised, agreeable fit. Adjustable and removable braces are included to ensure long-distance comfort and that the trousers remain in position, while additional velcro and button adjustments provide a custom fit around the leg. The trousers also have integrated reflective detailing on the front and back provide night visibility and cargo style pockets for everyday practicality.
