Dakine Dewit Jacket and Pants


Autumn is on the doorstep and Dakine has released the Dewit lineup of apparel with plenty of room to pedal through the darker days.

The 4-way stretch construction ergo-cut is lightweight with elastic cuffs, but has room for a helmet inside the hood, should the weather get really nasty.

Pants are a go to choice for many riders through the winter slop, keeping you cleaner and drier. The Dewit pants share the same materials and styling as the jacket, also with an elastic waist band and cuff. You'll also find the addition of a zipper near the ankle closure to pull them on and off easily. Availability is estimated for mid-September for both garments.





Dakine Thrillium HW Pants


The Thrillium Heavy Weight pants are a premium pant for severe winter conditions with some ventilation on the waist and inner thigh so you won't overheat. Flexibility isn't forgotten about with stretch panels built into a slimmer gravity fit than the Dewit pants. There are two traditional hand pockets and one thigh pocket lower down the left leg. A quick-release waist buckle keeps things simple to use and shouldn't pop open as easy as a snap button. Availability is estimated for mid-September.
