Product Description
Riding to the best of your ability requires gear that enhances your skills by not only protecting you from the outside elements, but also by functioning internally to keep you dry and maintain a comfortable body temperature. Firstgear’s Technical Performance Gear (TPG) accomplishes these tasks by employing an integrated layering system where each piece performs a specific function. TPG’s three-part system consists of Basegear to keep you dry, a Tech Liner to maintain the correct body temperature and a selection of jackets and pants designed to allow the first two layers to operate properly by protecting against outside forces. TPG is the first system initially designed to function as a cohesive three-part system.

Think of TPG Basegear as a unisex second skin that not only protects you from chafing and bacterial build-up, but that also combats body odor and keeps you dry. Constructed of fabric that’s lighter than cotton, TPG’s Basegear keeps you feeling fresh by helping to keep your skin moisture-free.

Features:
  • Moisture transport system wicks the sweat from your body keeping you cool and dry
  • Basegear’s heat-release mechanism keeps your skin surface as cool as possible to help maintain core body temperature – increases in core body temperature can cause muscle fatigue and slow reaction time
  • Fabric is 50% lighter than a cotton t-shirt after 60 minutes of exercise
  • Releases 80% of its moisture after 30 minutes of rest, while cotton only releases 35% of its moisture after 30 minutes of rest
  • All seams flat-stitched for added comfort under layering system
  • UV 50+ protection from sun elements helps control body temperature to reduce fatigue
  • Anti-bacterial protection

tom buffalo,  NY balls These things fit fine, I wear a size 32 pants 170 lbs 5'9". These aren’t skin tight, but they aren’t loose or anything. When I have them on and pull up the leathers, they stay in place, aren’t tooo expensive and keep me comfy so I’m happy

Mark R Ventura,  CA Firstgear - Basegear Pants Work well, a little loose in the waist but nothing you can't live with. I wear them under jeans and they've worked well in mid 50's, lo 60's.

Charles Caldwell Mt View,  HI Works well I ordered XX-large and they fit but should have ordered X-large. Don't know, but you might need to order one size smaller. They keep me cool under my levis' and I don't even remember their there. I also bought the shirt that goes with this. I'm happy.

Donald H. Wendland Loudon,  TN Firstgear base pants These pants wear just fine and do what they are advertised to do. They feel great, except for the LOOSE WAIST BAND. The waist is not true to size, could be much more snug. But under your outer protective pants they would be ok.

peter san diego,  CA Exactly What I Was Looking For I bought these pants looking for that extra layer of clothing to keep my posterior warm on the cold mornings that I'm out riding. I'm telling you, in the 28 to 35 degree weather that I've been riding in lately these pants underneath my jeans has made a world of difference. My legs no longer feel like they're going to fall off after an hour ride in the freezing weather. Great buy!!
