Beta's most destructive tester didn't just wear these shells, he basically lived in them for whole seasons of the wettest riding (and sometimes working) conditions around.
For trail riders looking for a combo of casual looks and a functional design, there's another new option on the market, this time from Scottish clothing brand Endura.
At the start of 2020, Endura committed to planting one million trees annually for the next ten years and they've exceeded their goal in the first year.
Riding in the colder and wetter months is about more than just a shell and some waterproof shorts. Nikki Hollatz and Colin Meagher talk us through a few essentials that will keep 'type 2 fun', well, fun.
Winter arrived with a bang this year in the Pacific Northwest, and we've reviewed an assortment of women's kits from Patagonia, Specialized, Pearl Izumi, Fox Racing, Madison, Showers Pass, and Endura that are designed for the changing seasons.
Our fall/winter gear guide is primarily focused on the double scoop in the sundae of winter riding: outer layers. We have kits from Endura, Maloja, Pearl Izumi, Dainese, Fox, Specialized, and Alpinestars to keep your off-season to an absolute minimum.
