Pair with the Basilisk IR Jacket to complete the kit.
The body fabric of the Basilisk IR Pant 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 rating on the water column (100 feet of water pressure), an MVTR of 10,000 g/m/d, .06cfm air permeability, and DWR coating, this pant is focused on keeping you dry when riding in wet conditions. Double external storm flaps and internal guttered construction provide additional weather resistance while maintaining ventilation.
The Basilisk IR Pant features integrated RHEON™ LABS body armor, helping the pant remain breathable yet protected in a wide range of conditions on extended trips. 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.
What makes RHEON™ different 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.
The knees feature added Super Fabric® ceramic platelets on a 600D waterproof/breathable overlay for added strength and durability. With double-layer fabric, you can crash repeatedly and still stay dry. Our zippers are top-of-the-line water-resistant YKK VISLON® AquaGuard®: they won’t clog with dust and grime and are easy to operate one-handed with gloves. Two cargo pockets on the upper thigh keep your essentials close at hand or provide quick stash options when off the bike.
To help keep you cool, there are six vents: two knee scoop vents, two fold-back thigh vents, and two large exhaust vents behind the leg. Open all the vents in hot weather and let the cooler outside air envelop your upper thigh.
On the inside, we eliminated hanging liners entirely, reducing weight, bulk, and heat. Laminated patches protect the tricot lining in high abrasion areas like the knees and lower leg. The leg openings are cut extra wide to allow for plenty of room to fiddle with and adjust your boots. And they’re adjustable, too, with waterproof internal gussets and overlapping Velcro flaps.

I have used these Basilisk IR pants for a few rides now and have mixed feelings on them. The fit and feel is good, the ventilation is nice, and the material is not stiff (almost soft). The only pockets on the pants are a bit tight and uncomfortable if you put anything bigger than your phone in the pocket. The zippers are all sticky and take two hands to operate properly.
Overall in comparison for other offerings in the price range these pants would not compare well to other companies products side-by-side. While I am hoping to buy some Mosko Moto bags I will not be buying more riding gear. If the price was $100 or $150 less I would be much less annoyed; but the price-to-product do not match in my opinion.
For ADV riding, having armor built into the pants is just much more convenient. Have used their unarmored jacket and pants for years, and still prefer the jacket in many cases since I take take it on and off and still have my armor. However adding pads under the pants was always a pain in the ass. Personally happy Mosko put aside their egos and came out with a full protection set of gear!
12V jacket is really awesome 👏
These pants are a step above the previous pants I had. The fit and feel are excellent and they are much more comfortable, lighter in weight and less bulky than other brands with mesh lining to hang the internal armor. They fit true to size and have plenty of room without being bulky.
I have the Woodsman pants so I figured I would order the same size since the Woodsman fit perfectly. Wrong assumption. Way too big. One size down was perfect.
I’ve had the Basilisk jacket for a year now and love the quality and water proof protection. Kept me warm and dry in a couple heavy rain days in Patagonia running highway speeds. Looking forward to now having the pants to go with the jacket.
