When you’re looking at the Alpinestars Raider Drystar Pants you’re looking at an abrasion resistant, waterproof, and armored pant that takes the capability of an adventure pant and rolls it into a slim fit that’s similar to sport oriented pants. This makes the Raider an ideal choice for commuters, sport riders, and pretty much any type of rider wanting a close fitting, versatile pant.
Sitting in the Astars lineup just ahead of the Andes and just below the technical big brother Valparaiso, the Raider sets itself apart with 3 to 4 season usability provided by a drop thermal liner and a baked-in drystar liner that still allows direct venting thanks to the taped off, zippered vents on the thigh.
Crash protection is handled by a mix of abrasion resistant materials on the outer shell, CE rated armor at the knees, and non-CE padding at the hips. With everything working together, the Raider comes in as the weather proof, sport-oriented, textile pant offering that has been missing from many manufacturer lineups.
