CW Evaluations: Sidi Adventure Rain Boots Rugged boots for road and trail.

New to adventure-touring? Here is a tip: Buy the right boots. Sleek, stylish, toe-slider-equipped zip-ups that look and feel like second skin on the street will wilt off-road. Stream crossings? Kicking a big Single to life? Forget about it. Sidi offers two ADV-specific options: the Adventure Gore-Tex and, tested here, [...]

Klim Badlands Pro Jacket (Black) - Front

CW Evaluation: Klim Badlands Pro Jacket and Pants Extraordinary off-road gear at an extravagant price.

This motorcycle jacket and pants appear to have been custom-made by some Savile Row tailor (not that we would know). Every panel is perfect, each stitch is impeccable and every seam connecting pieces of the Gore-Tex three-layer shell is sealed—hence, the Keep You Dry guarantee. Nine sizes from XS to [...]

Previous generations of Gore-Tex gloves  got the waterproof construction right but, essentially, you had to wear two gloves: an outer leather shell and a fabric glove inside it that had the waterproof laminate. This two-glove concept [...]
