The Basilisk Pant is our waterproof/breathable enduro-touring kit for long-distance, multi-day trips. It combines high-performance materials with clean lines and a minimalist design.
The Basilisk Pant is our incredibly waterproof, incredibly breathable enduro-touring kit for long-distance, multi-day trips through primarily off-road terrain. It combines high-performance materials with clean lines and minimalist design. With an articulated fit for freedom of motion and easy layering, the Basilisk Pant is designed to work with separate armor systems for superior protection and better versatility.
The Basilisk Pant is incredibly waterproof and incredibly breathable. The 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 DWR to keep you dry in wet conditions. It's the only air-permeable riding pant we have come across and has the highest waterproof ratings we've ever seen.
Version 2.5 improves weather protection at the fold-back thigh vents by relocating the zippers, including double external storm flaps and additional internal guttered construction to greatly improve weather resistance in the heaviest rains while maintaining maximum ventilation.
On the knees, we 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 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.
Our apparel is designed to fit true to size over body armor – no need to size up; we've done the math for you.
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.
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.

Really well built and after a couple of days using this, it's my favorite pants by far. Haven't driven through a complete downpour yet but after a couple of minor showers, my guess is that they're up for the task of getting me home dry. I'll be enjoying these pants fully on my adventures.
Really high quality product. The downside is that it has a perfect fit in size 32 (my normal pant size), would prefer a 33. Now I must keep the belly flat and don’t drink and eat too much (179cm long and weigh around 75-77kg). 34 would most likely be to big. I use protective pants with thick pads in waist and back, without them they fit very good. Will keep them and maybe find someone in the future that can sow them out a bit if it is possible.
This Pant is more versatile than I first thought, this due to the great vents. The Basilisk pant works great for both travels and for local ADV. The hottest days are few in Scandinavia. The fit is true to the size for me. Rather roomy wich makes the comfortable on bike. I use Alpinestar knee protectors under and the combo is great. The pockets are very useful and easy to use on bike. Quality in the details. Totally weather /rainproof first season and no issues. Could not be happier. A lot better than the pants i had before from another brand, just compare the seams, zippers, pockets, weather proofing and outstanding ventilation in the category.
I bought Basilisk pants and a jacket, Surveyor pants and a shirt, and a Strata set, so almost everything you have to offer. From the very beginning, I have been dissatisfied with the service at several stages, besides the fact that I ordered a significant amount of equipment, apart from what I ordered, I did not even receive a sticker for free. Disappointment, I expected closer cooperation with the team and the customer support and attitude towards the customer is a score of 1. Mosko made a mistake during delivery because they sent the equipment to me from several destinations with the same invoice, so I had to pay significant additional costs, regardless of my expenses due to your mistake, you were only there to protect your interest. The equipment is packed like in the worst market, without specification instructions or anything to get to know in detail, as if I bought used goods and paid full price for new ones.
The meeting with the equipment restored my mood, very good materials and design, well done for the designer, it seems that he knows his job better than the whole team! Well done designer, rating 5!
Of course, I had problems with the sizes due to my non-athletic build and I had additional questions and requests without any specific help from the seller, but Mosko is only protecting its interest, you are not interested in the buyer!
Rating 1+5=6/2= 3 average
Been through a couple of brands of trousers to go over my new knee braces and was close to giving up and going back to basic knee armour in trousers. The Basilisk pant is perfect, fits over knee braces and still plenty of flexibility to climb on and off the bike. The Mosko Moto customer service was second to none too and they helped me with sizing and the postage to the UK was super quick. I’ll be definitely making more purchases in the future.
Thrilled to hear the Basilisk pant is a perfect fit for your knee braces! Flexibility is key, and we're glad it meets your needs. Thanks for recognizing our customer service - we're always here to help!
