Verified Customer Reviews for Rev'it Poseidon 3 Gore-Tex Trousers
Waterproof and breathable
16 June 2025 by Dave
Purchased just before going to the Alps. 3 solid days of torrential rain and gale force winds. Didn't let a drop of water in.
Temps have are up 28-30°c vents open and moving no problem. Once stationary can get hot, as expected.
Sizing seems to be pretty accurate
Style: Black / Black

Superb quality trousers
27 October 2024 by Alex
Absolutely top quality garment, these would keep you dry in a monsoon, only gripe 8 could add is the fact you have to purchase the braces separately, so come on rev it, start to include the braces top it all off

Feel the quality

Bought these as my current over trousers developed a leak after several hours riding in rain. I have not had chance to try the Rev'it trousers in the wet but they are very well made and look like they will outlast me. they are a little stiff but other people say they will soften over time.

Keeps you dry!

Together with the matching jacket these kept me dry. Absolutely no leaks around the wrists, neck or midriff. This was after 3 days of exceedingly heavy rains on a bike tour of Scotland. Dry customer, happy customer.

Really impressed
07 June 2023 by James K
After being soaked through to the b*lls one time too many I decided to take the plunge on laminated Gore-tex trousers to match my existing Rev'it jacket.
These arrived and feel really study and well made. Heavier than I expected but in a good solid way. They feel great on.
My waist measures 38 with the tape measure, so went with XXL as I tend to go higher waist as I have chunky legs. There is plenty of room in the waist. At first I thought too much, but the adjustment straps on the side adjusted half way through their total adjustment cinched the waist in just right. Plenty of room for my chunky legs. My leg is 32 so went with the regular length and again this fitted me perfectly.
I would not go for XXL if you measure much less than 38. I decided to get the suspenders to help keep the pants in position, as again the room in the waist meant they did feel like dropping, but I'm happy with that as it allows room in the leg.
Standing up the armour drops below my knees, but sat on the bike they fit perfectly on my knees and they feel really comfortable on the bike.
Lots of adjustment for legs.
I expect them to be waterproof as they are the latest goretex, but yet to be tested in anger.

Description
Just like the jacket of the same name, Poseidon 3 GTX trousers protect you from the elements. Constructed from two and three-layer Gore-Tex that's laminated to the outer shell, wind, rain, and surface-spray have met their match. This membrane has near-magical properties - it's lightweight and resistant to cuts and tears. Plus, it's breathable yet windproof and 100% waterproof. Meaning you stay warm, dry, and protected on any adventure, whatever the season.
A detachable, packable thermal liner adds to the all-season credentials without adding bulk or too much extra weight. And on-demand ventilation is easily adjustable with VCS|Aquadefence - just open for airflow and snap shut if the weather turns nasty. FidLock® magnetic fasteners combine locking strength with easy, one-handed operation.
These trousers not only perform against the elements but defend you from the road, too, with SEEFLEX CE-Level 2 armour at the knees, and breathable, flexible SEESMART CE-Level 1 hip protectors. A Sure Grip textured panel in the seat means you won't slide around at this vital contact point, even in extreme weather. Plus, double zips keep your pants and thermal liner attached to your jacket for secure, all-season comfort and wraparound protection.
