There’s nothing worse than arriving at your destination all wet and soggy. It can even be dangerous if the cold gets in your hands and body. For fair-weather riders, this may not happen often, but tour, adventure and endurance riders know that investing in waterproofs is a must. With Richa, you can rely on waterproof materials such as Gore-Tex®, which offers a 100% waterproof guarantee and keeps you dry on all your adventures.

Gore-Tex®
Ride Dry, Ride Free: GORE-TEX® Technology in Richa Motorcycle Gear
When it comes to motorcycle riding, weather is unpredictable—but your gear shouldn’t be. At Richa, we believe nothing should come between you and your ride, especially not the rain. That’s why we use GORE-TEX®, the gold standard in waterproof, windproof, and breathable technology, across a wide selection of our motorcycle jackets, trousers, gloves, and boots. With GORE-TEX®, you stay dry and comfortable in all conditions—so you can ride longer, further, and safer.
What is GORE-TEX®?
GORE-TEX® is a world-renowned membrane technology developed by W.L. Gore & Associates. It’s designed to provide durable waterproofing and windproofing while allowing moisture from sweat to escape. This ensures that you remain dry from both the outside and the inside—something no ordinary waterproof material can achieve.
How GORE-TEX® Works
At the core of the GORE-TEX® technology is a microporous membrane that contains over 1.4 billion pores per square centimeter. These pores are small enough to block water droplets and wind but large enough to allow water vapor to escape. When bonded to performance fabrics and sealed with GORE-TEX® tape, the result is guaranteed waterproof protection that lasts.

GORE-TEX® in Richa Motorcycle Jackets
Richa offers a wide range of GORE-TEX® jackets tailored for touring, adventure, and all-weather riders. These jackets combine cutting-edge protection with world-class waterproofing and breathability.
All-Day Comfort, Rain or Shine
With GORE-TEX® integrated into our jackets, you get gear that performs in all seasons. Whether you’re caught in a thunderstorm or facing a chilly mountain pass, our jackets keep you dry, warm, and comfortable. The membrane is often paired with thermal liners and ventilation zippers, giving you maximum versatility.
Durability You Can Count On
The GORE-TEX® membrane is bonded to abrasion-resistant outer materials, such as Cordura or Armacor, ensuring your jacket not only repels water but also offers serious protection in case of a fall. For long-distance riders and serious tourers, this durability is invaluable.
GORE-TEX® in Richa Motorcycle Trousers
Rain doesn’t just hit your shoulders—it soaks your legs too. That’s why Richa GORE-TEX® trousers are engineered to offer full lower-body weather protection without restricting movement or breathability.
Seam-Sealed Waterproof Construction
Our motorcycle trousers with GORE-TEX® technology feature seam-sealed interiors to prevent even the smallest water ingress. Combined with heat-resistant panels and reinforced seat areas, they’re built for performance and protection.
Zippers, Vents, and Layering
Most Richa GORE-TEX® trousers come with adjustable ventilation, zippered closures, and thermal liners. Whether you’re crossing damp city streets or wet alpine roads, you stay comfortable and dry thanks to the adaptive design.

GORE-TEX® in Richa Motorcycle Gloves
Wet hands are cold hands—and that’s not just uncomfortable, it’s dangerous. Richa GORE-TEX® gloves are designed to keep your hands warm, dry, and responsive in all riding conditions.
Guaranteed Waterproof Protection
Every glove with the GORE-TEX® membrane is 100% waterproof and windproof, keeping your hands protected in heavy rain, snow, or cold wind. Unlike basic waterproof liners, the GORE-TEX® membrane ensures moisture doesn’t build up inside, allowing your skin to breathe.
Grip and Control in Wet Weather
Our GORE-TEX® gloves are designed for optimal dexterity and grip, even in soaking conditions. With features like leather palms, visor wipers, thermal insulation, and secure wrist closures, these gloves are ideal for touring, commuting, and year-round riding.
GORE-TEX® in Richa Motorcycle Boots
Your feet deserve just as much protection as the rest of your body. Richa GORE-TEX® boots are built to shield your feet from water, wind, and cold—while remaining breathable and comfortable for long days in the saddle.
Dry Feet = Happy Rider
Nothing ruins a ride faster than wet socks. That’s why our boots use GORE-TEX® Performance Comfort Footwear membranes to create a 100% waterproof and breathable barrier. Whether you’re riding through puddles or walking through mud, your feet stay dry and blister-free.
Built for All-Day Riding
Richa GORE-TEX® boots offer more than just waterproofing—they also feature ankle and shin protection, anti-slip soles, and reinforced toes and heels. Comfort padding and moisture-wicking interiors make these boots perfect for touring or commuting.
When you invest in motorcycle gear with GORE-TEX®, you’re not just buying protection from the elements—you’re investing in confidence, performance, and comfort.
