Rukka Road R trousers in black

The Road-R trouser is the matching lower half to the Rukka Pathfinder-R jacket.

 

The trouser is a drop-liner trouser that uses a Gore-Tex membrane. The pant is almost identical to the Comfo-R pant. The main difference is that the Road-R contains no stretch in the outer shell. The Road-R also has 1500 denier Cordura overlays on the knees and hips rather than the 500 denier overlays that are on the Comfo-R pant. It is these changes that have allowed this pant to be accredited to the AA level rather than the single-A level of the Comfo-R.

 

The pants come fitted with Level 2 D3O in the knees and hips. You get one external zip, but there are no vents on the pant at all. There’s an adjustable belt at the waist. You get long zips at the bottom of the legs, with velcro flaps to cinch the hem around the ankles. The Road-R trousers come with Rukka’s AirCushion system, but not the AntiDlide system. For warmth, the pants come with a removable, 60g. thermal liner.
