Meanwhile, with their TruMotion® all-way stretch fabric, the Defender Pros also offer up excellent flexibility, ideal for pedalling up to the trailhead, and with easy mobility so you can fully enjoy the descents.

Mountain biking comfort is further bolstered by the combination of TruDri® fabrics, mesh panels and laser-cut ventilation to the front and back. TruDri® is very quick to wick away sweat before you feel any discomfort and laser-cut vents allow for cooling airflow on a warm day. You'll also be pleased to find the pants have a Durable Water Repellent finish. This will shed dirt and moisture when you encounter damp trails. The proven race-ratchet closure provides easy adjustment and keeps the pants from slipping while you move and pedal.

When the weather is blisteringly hot and MTB trails running fast, the Polartec® Delta™ fabric used in the construction of the Defend Pro Long Sleeve Jersey comes into its own. Delta™ is an active cooling fabric. It works with and enhances your body's natural cooling processes to boost your riding comfort. With its structured finish, lifting fabric off the skin, it offers increased airflow to boost the cooling effect of sweat evaporation while also reducing the wet-cling you find with normal jerseys. Ride hard. Build a sweat. But stay cool and comfortable. It's not just cool, though, it's tough too. Fox have used abrasion-resistant Cordura® panels over the shoulders and to the elbows. When you're nipping through tight tree-lined trails this fends of the snags and rips you get from overhanging branches and bushes. Lastly, the Defend Pro is cut for mountain biking.

Why let wet weather keep you from your mountain biking fun? The Defend 3L Trousers are made with a 3-layer waterproof fabric, are fully seam-sealed and feature a rain-shedding DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish too. Together they provide a reliable barrier against falling rain and the inevitable mud flicked off from muddy trails. While protecting against the rain, the Defend 3Ls are also built tough. Abrasion-resistant Cordura® is used in key areas to add durability and protection. The MTB-specific fit also makes room for knee guards, perfect for padding up when hitting more technical trails and for more rowdy riding. And when you’re riding hard, enjoying the testing conditions, the excellent breathability of the pants prevents you from getting a soaking from your own sweat on the inside. In wet weather, you’ll be staying dry inside and out.
While others might take a pass on riding when it’s wet, you’ll be hitting the trails and getting a big grin on your face. And it’s then the Defend 3L Water Jacket will prove its mettle. Rain protection is afforded by both its waterproof fabric and fully taped seams. Together they prevent any water from seeping inside, even during more prolonged periods of rain. Fox have also added a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, ensuring water and mud beads on the surface rather than soaking in. Not only does the Defend 3L keep the rain out, but thanks to excellent breathability the sweat you generate when riding won’t hang around inside either. And if you do find yourself needing a boost to airflow, underarm vents can be opened to let in some fresh cool air. Mountain bike ready features also include abrasion-resistant Cordura deployed in high wear areas. The hood is compatible with most MTB helmets, ideal for when the rain is particularly incessant. And wrist cuffs can be closed up to keep out the elements. Check the forecast. See rain. Still go for a ride.
For those of you who love to take on more pedal-intensive mountain bike trails, the Enduro D3O Knee Sleeves provide lightweight protection and stacks of flexibility. The sleeves are made using a combination of moisture-wicking micro-Lycra® and mesh panels. The micro-Lycra® allows you to move easily, never restricting you as you pilot your bike along fast-flowing trails. At the same time, the mesh rear panels maintain excellent airflow and breathability, minimising sweat build-up. At the top and bottom of the sleeves, silicone grips prevent them from slipping around too. Innovative D3O® Impact Protection These pads feature removable D3O® Impact Protection, an innovative solution to protection for activities that require flexibility and impact absorption. The D3O® polymer pads are soft and flexible in normal use, allowing full mobility as you tackle technical trails. And yet upon impact, the foam immediately works to absorb and dissipate crash forces, far beyond that of ordinary foams. With the D3O® padding present, you benefit from protection without restrictions.
The Defend Pro Long Sleeve Jersey is the top to pick when you’re looking forward to the speed, thrills and adrenalin-rush of challenging mountain bike trails. TruDri Technology provides rapid sweat-wicking, pulling moisture off your skin to prevent you from getting drenched during your ride. It’s remarkably quick drying too, stopping any uncomfortable clinging that would otherwise cause discomfort. Next come the Cordura® panels. Deployed across the shoulders and elbows, these offer protection from those cuts and snags that are inevitable when swooping past trees and bushes lining the trail. While tough, they maintain flexibility too. You'll also benefit from the mountain-bike specific fit of the Defend Pro jersey. Not too tight but not too loose either, it's just right to give you the freedom to move quickly and react to the ever-changing terrain beneath your knobbly tyres. A drop-tail also keeps you covered when you get off the back of the saddle or when in a low and aggressive riding position. And sleeves also accommodate pads, ideal for challenging trails.
