Madison DTE 3-Layer Waterproof Bib Trousers
With an updated fabric and designed for 2026 - 27 for riders who refuse to let bad weather bring a ride to an early finish, the Madison DTE Waterproof Bib Trousers provide serious protection in wet, windy and demanding conditions.
Part of Madison’s Defy the Elements collection, these trousers combine a fully waterproof construction with highly breathable stretch fabric. The relaxed—but not baggy—fit makes them comfortable for long days in the saddle, while articulated knees allow you to move and pedal naturally.
The waterproof bib section provides additional coverage through the waist and lower back, helping to keep out rain, spray and mud. Adjustable shoulder straps hold everything securely in place, while elasticated ankle cuffs create a close fit and work neatly with your riding footwear.
With a substantial 20,000mm waterproof rating and equally impressive 20,000g/m²/24hr breathability, the DTE Bib Trousers are built for prolonged exposure to proper British weather. A fluorocarbon-free DWR finish helps water and dirt bead away from the outer fabric.
Secure zipped pockets provide useful storage for your riding essentials. The zips are highly water-resistant rather than completely waterproof, so we recommend protecting phones and other moisture-sensitive items.
