Unisex cut
The built-in overshoes are guaranteed to protect your shoes in rainy weather and can be folded into the leg of the overpants in dry weather.
Remember to properly fasten the overshoe’s elastic behind the heel for secure pedalling.
Our 540 and 900 City Cycling Overpants have a specific cut for both men and women.
Which tests are carried out to ensure the overpants are waterproof?
These overpants’ durable, coated fabric and sealed seams make them entirely waterproof. A fabric’s water resistance is expressed in mm (test based on the ISO 811 standard). The product is resistant to pressure from 2,000 mm of water. The finished product is approved in a shower test in the lab, where we recreate the conditions of an average downpour: 60 L water per square metre per hour for 2 hours.
How to ensure the lifespan of your rain overpants
To keep your overpants waterproof in the long term, we recommend regularly reactivating the fabric’s water-repellent property. You can do this every three washes or after a dozen uses in the rain. The overpants’ water-repellent property can be easily reactivated with heat: put them in your dryer for about 15 minutes. After washing, be sure to rinse completely.
Eco-friendly
A mass dyeing process is used to dye the fibres during the production of the fabric to reduce the environmental impact, water consumption, and pollution.
A rating to compare products’ environmental impact
On a scale of A to E, these rain overpants received a B.
An ABCDE rating shows the environmental impact of a product. Put forward by ADEME, it takes into account production, transportation, usage, and waste generated at the end of a product’s life. Decathlon displays this information voluntarily to help you identify products with lower environmental impact.

Compatibility with lights and pant clips
You can clip lights behind each leg using the 2 attachment systems.For more freedom of movement, you can use pant clips to tighten the cuffs.
For optimal protection
Wear your overpants with a waterproof poncho or jacket.
Component breathability
Hydrophilic coating (RET = 12): Limits condensation inside the garment. To determine a fabric’s breathability, we test its evaporative resistance or RET (based on the ISO 11092 Standard). The lower its resistance, the more the fabric allows perspiration to escape, increasing its breathability.For example: RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric. 9 < RET < 12 = highly breathable fabric. 12 < RET < 20 = breathable fabric. RET > 20 = slightly or not breathable fabric.
