The Basilisk IR Jacket is our waterproof enduro-touring kit for trips through primarily off-road terrain. It features removable armor and performance-focused materials, creating a highly breathable, super comfortable ADV jacket.
The Basilisk IR Jacket is our waterproof / breathable enduro-touring kit for trips through primarily off-road terrain. It provides a balance of waterproofness, breathability, mobility, and protection, with a CE-A rating for abrasion, and CE-Level 2 rating for impact protection.
The Basilisk IR Jacket combines high-performance materials with clean lines and minimalist design. The articulated fit allows freedom of motion and easy layering, and packs smaller than a traditional ADV jacket.
Pair with the Basilisk IR Pant to complete the kit.
The Basilisk IR Jacket is designed to perform during athletic, technical riding through primarily off-road terrain in a wide range of weather conditions. It handles long transfer sections with ease and is now CE A-rated for abrasion / slide protection.
We took the Basilisk Jacket's proven shell performance and fit developed over the last seven years and added integrated / removable (IR) RHEON™ LABS body armor. This makes the Basilisk IR a waterproof, super-breathable, and now more versatile and protected ADV jacket.
At its core, RHEON™ is an energy-absorbing superpolymer. Soft and flexible in its natural state, it intelligently stiffens when subjected to force. Made to feel invisible, its designed to flex to the curvature of the body for an adaptive fit. One of the unique elements of RHEON™ is its patented algorithmic design and 3D printing process. The combination makes it both lighter, and more protective. The unique cell packing allows for better impact absorption while allowing air to flow naturally around the rider, making RHEON™ armor the most breathable protection on the market to date.
The included CE Level-2 armor pads are easily removable, allowing the jacket to convert into a lighter-weight and more packable shell for use with separate body armor. (Compared to the previous generation of non-armored Basilisk Jacket, the new integrated armored version fits the same with the pads removed, ready for use with your own separate armor.)
The jackets rip-stop body fabric is a highly abrasion-resistant eVent® Expedition 3-layer, using eVent's proprietary Direct Venting™ technology. Heat and water vapor move directly through the air-permeable membrane, allowing your body to breathe freely and stay comfortable. With a 30,000mm on the water column (100 feet of water pressure), an MVTR of 10,000 g/m/d, .06cfm air permeability, and a DWR coating to keep you dry in wet conditions.
We have storm flaps on all external zippers to increase the Basilisk's ability to shed water. In high abrasion areas like the shoulders, back, and elbows, we feature Super Fabric® ceramic platelets on a 600D waterproof/breathable overlay for added strength. With double-layer fabric, you can crash repeatedly and still stay dry. Our zippers are top-of-the-line water-repellent YKK Vislon Aquaguard: they won't clog with dust and grime and are easy to operate one-handed with gloves.
There are two external hand pockets and two chest pockets, (one external, one internal), with six substantial vents placed strategically for maximum airflow. On the inside, we eliminated hanging liners entirely, reducing weight, bulk, and heat. In high abrasion areas like the shoulders and elbows, laminated patches protect the tricot lining.
This super comfortable jacket provides a balance of waterproofness, breathability, mobility, and protection, with a CE-A rating for abrasion, and CE-Level 2 rating for impact protection.
The Basilisk IR Jacket fits true to size.
(The fit of this new armored Basilisk IR Jacket is the same as the previous edition of the Basilisk Jacket shell. Remove the included armor pads for rides with your own separate armor.)

DV Expedition, eVent's burliest waterproof membrane, provides the ultimate in durability and all-weather protection. Delivering dry comfort in the widest range of conditions and providing the greatest waterproof protection without sacrificing air permeability. At its best when the conditions are at their worst.
The Basilisk jacket features flow-through vents to maximize cooling while taking on the most strenuous offroad riding in all weather conditions year round. Chest and side vents allow airflow through the torso and under arm. Arm vents add additional venting to keep you cool on every ride.
SuperFabric® is created by taking a 600d polyester base fabric and infusing tiny hard guard plates into the fabric. These guard plates have small gaps between each plate, keeping the SuperFabric® flexible for maximum comfort and protection.

Coming from years of using BMW Rallye gear the Basilisk jacket is a nice change. The simplicity in design, light weight, and waterproof integration is nice. I agree with other comments on the poor placement of elbow fasteners. It definitely interferes with smooth movements to reach the helmet comms or other face shield adjustments. The shoulders are tighter than I expected and are much more snug than other jackets/clothing that I wear in the same size. Being able to try this on before purchase may have swayed me into getting a large instead of medium.
On a heavy rain ride in Northern CA I did experience water leakage in the bicep area. Improvements to the zipper design may help. I also had water come through the Basilisk pants around the upper quad and crotch.
I may go back to my BMW gear in wet and cold conditions to stay drier and have more room for warm weather layers.
Good jacket, fits very well and will probably fit more snug after a wash or two, pretty sure it'll keep the rain out as well. One question, was there supposed to be a hoodie, there are clips at the collar to fit one, possible to clip one on?
Your product is amazing im so happy i came across it thnx Derrick k
In general the jacket is well done, good materials, but it has some glitches. The arm adjusters are just at the elbow position and interfere your elbow movements.
Want to try more after first wash….
Hello Andreu,
We’re glad to hear you’re happy with the overall quality and materials of the Basilisk IR Jacket, but we’re sorry to hear that the arm adjusters are causing some interference with your elbow movements. Your comfort and mobility are important to us so if you find that they still give you trouble after awhile of wear please let us know and we'll discuss possible adjustments or options to improve the fit.
All the best,
Mosko Moto Support
