Rain Jacket Barrier 2 H2O
DIRT Series, lightweight, waterproof zippered, off-road rain jacket
For the times when you’re caught off guard – riding off road - by Mother Nature, the Barrier 2 H2O rain jacket is ready to keep you dry. Upgraded from a smock design in the previous iteration, a redesign based on clear rider feedback, the all-new Barrier 2 H2O is now a centre-front zipper jacket design. To offer the same quick-action, on-trail waterproofing prowess, but speeding up the time it takes to slip into when it really comes pouring down fast.
Rainwear for off roaders
With a 3L polyester ripstop outer shell - made to slide over your protective under layers without friction - coupled with 3L hydratex waterproofing, the Barrier 2 H2O jacket’s main goal is to keep you from getting soaked. An easy addition to your modular, DIRT Series kit, it packs easily into your backpack or vest and can be thrown on in a flash. Furthermore, the taped seams use a contrasting colour to create the graphic lines – but mainly to keep the water out, while the Aquaguard® front zipper prevents precipitation from entering through the front.
In the details
A hook-and-loop closure is included at the wrists for a better/closer fit, while the snap button helps affix the hood to the jacket while riding, preventing the hood from flapping around profusely. Additionally, the hood drawcords are finished in the cord tunnel so, when pulled tight, also don’t flap around in the wind while at speed.
Note: We advise women to order a size smaller than they would regularly buy.
Waterproofing
hydratex|3L
A 3-layer construction; the hydratex|3L membrane has a layer of protective tricot laminated to the back of the membrane. This results in a waterproof and breathable membrane that is also very durable.
Visibility
Laminated reflection at upper arms
Reflection panels ensure excellent visibility at all angles, allowing the wearer to be seen from all directions. To offer a more sophisticated look, the reflection panels are welded to the fabric. This welding process also eliminates stitching seams, making the garments safer.

Fit
Loose fit
The Loose fit is designed to prioritize both comfort and aesthetics. Unlike the Regular fit, the Loose fit has a more relaxed and generous cut which allows for maximum comfort and freedom of movement. This style also has a more casual look which adds to its appeal.
