Adventure Versatility with Cordura® Strength

The Merlin Mahala Raid Pants are engineered for the touring and adventure rider who requires high-performance airflow without sacrificing durability. Utilising an exclusive Cordura® cotton outer with a DWR water-repellent treatment, these pants provide a robust barrier against the elements while maintaining a comfortable, flexible fit. Pre-fitted with premium D3O® LP1 armour at both the knees and hips, they offer reliable impact protection for long-distance journeys.

Key Features

• Cordura® Cotton Outer: Constructed from an exclusive blend of Cordura® and cotton for superior abrasion resistance and a soft feel.
• DWR Treatment: Features a Durable Water Repellent coating to bead off light rain and prevent the fabric from soaking.
• D3O® LP1 Armour: Equipped with CE-certified LP1 protectors at the knees and hips for high-level impact safety.
• Large Mesh Panels: Integrated thigh ventilation panels allow for maximum airflow during warm-weather riding.
• Moisture-Wicking Lining: A fixed mesh internal lining draws perspiration away from the skin to maintain rider comfort.
• Adventure Boot Expansion: Adjustable calf and ankle points allow the hem to fit securely over bulky off-road or touring boots.
• Seat Grip Panels: Textured panels on the seat area provide increased stability and prevent sliding on the motorcycle saddle.
• Accordion Stretch: Flexible panels positioned above the knees ensure unrestricted movement in various riding positions.

Protection and Construction

These pants are built to meet CE EN17092 Level A standards, providing a certified balance of safety and everyday usability. The use of genuine YKK zippers throughout ensures long-term hardware reliability, while the Merlin-branded snap studs and hook fastening waist provide a secure closure. For a complete touring setup, the inclusion of both short and long jacket-to-jean connecting zippers allows for seamless integration with Merlin jackets to prevent garment ride-up.
