Developed in conjunction with Andy Strapz, the new Held Rainblock Zip pants are being hailed as the ‘Duck’s Gut’s’ by Andy.

“Held made both a full zip through pant but used an ‘old-fashioned’ non-breathable backed fabric and the fabulous Rainblock pant that was constructed of superlight, 2.5 layer stretch and breathable material. The idea is that the outer layer is water repellent and stretch, the mid layer breathable waterproof and the 0.5, is a coating to stop the pores of the second layer wearing and clogging up with grime and the like.

“Made in Germany and Andy Strapz worked together to combine the zip through concept with the fabulous 2.5 layer Rainblock fabric but it fell on deaf ears at Held HQ in Germany. With a little smooth talking, Held Germany agreed to make the pants exclusively for the Aussie market, plugged the idea into the Held production system and we came up with Rainblock Zip. Eat yer heart out world!”

The result is a super-packable, breathable, full-zip open pants which are super easy to get on while on the side of the road, comfortable and waterproof. They are supplied with a mesh storage bag.
