Small tweaks and adjustments enhance the Sand 5's overall performance.Featuring a curated series of liners, the Sand 4 H2O pants wear easy and are ready for anything! The foundation of the Sand 5 pants are its abrasion-resistant polyester ripstop shell, made even breezier with ventilation panels on the upper legs. Not only are these pants well ventilated, they're also waterproof and insulated thanks to detachable hydratex A waterproof layer is laminated onto a carrier to construct the REVIT! Hydratex® membrane. The carrier in turn protects the membrane against rub and tear damage. The seams of the membrane are taped to ensure waterproofing. The REVIT! Hydratex® membrane is used in garments that demand a high level of all-weather protection. |3L and thermal liners.Add one or both liners to suit your conditions. Lose the shell and you have a waterproof, insulated pant system for setting up basecamp; REV'IT! finishes each liner as a freestanding, destination garment.Enjoy impact protection provided by SEEFLEX CE Level 2 armor at the knees and SEESMART CE Level 1 hip armor, with soft spacer mesh protector pockets.This fifth generation version of the REV'IT! Sand Pants add more ventilation and improvements in the waterproof and thermal liner systems over the previous Sand 4 Pants (from 2021). With a AA protective certification, the Sand 5 Pants are ready for ADV riding and on-road touring in all four seasons.

To achieve this classification, the materials in the most vulnerable areas of the garment, known as Zone 1 (typically shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees), undergo rigorous testing.The key test for abrasion resistance is performed on a specialized machine called the Darmstadt tester. In this test, a sample of the garment's material is subjected to a simulated slide on a concrete surface. For a garment to earn the AA rating, the material in Zone 1 must withstand a rotational speed of approximately 412.6 revolutions per minute (rpm) on the Darmstadt machine. This is designed to replicate a slide at a road speed of approximately 43mph (70 km/h). The material passes the test if it does not develop a hole larger than 5mm in any direction after the abrasion. This exacting standard ensures that the garment offers substantial protection against road rash in the event of a fall at typical road speeds. It is important to note that this abrasion test is just one component of the comprehensive testing required for certification. To earn the final rating, the garment must also pass rigorous standards for tear resistance, seam strength, the impact protection performance of the included armor and additional factors.
