The Gold Standard of All-Weather Leather Up for sale is a rare pair of Hein Gericke Gore-Tex Pro Shell leather trousers in a highly sought-after UK 44. These represent the pinnacle of Hein Gericke’s engineering—combining the abrasion resistance of premium leather with the 100% waterproof guarantee of Gore-Tex laminate. Unlike standard "drop-liner" waterproofs, the Pro Shell technology means the Gore-Tex is bonded directly to the leather. Water beads off the surface instantly, preventing the trousers from becoming heavy and waterlogged in a downpour. Key Features & Condition: Condition: Superb. Includes detachable thermal liners. These have been meticulously cared for. The leather is supple, all zips are original and smooth, and there are no scuffs or road rash. Provenance: Single owner from new. Originally purchased from the renowned Bridge Motorcycles in Exeter. Includes the original (though faded) purchase receipt. Protection: Integrated Hiprotec CE armor in the knees. Cooling: Features TFL Cool Leather technology, which reflects UV rays to keep the leather significantly cooler in direct sunlight. Connectivity: Full-length heavy-duty waist zip to connect to Hein Gericke or compatible jackets. Comfort: Large accordion stretch panels above the knees and lower back for a perfect fit in a seated riding position. Sizing & Measurements (Laid Flat): Label Size: UK 44
Why buy these? Hein Gericke no longer produces kit of this calibre. To buy a modern equivalent with Gore-Tex Pro Shell Leather (such as from Rukka) would cost over £800. This is a fantastic opportunity to own high-end, "bomb-proof" touring gear at a fraction of the original price.
