Held Tavino Base Men's Waterproof Adventure Motorcycle Trousers Black
The Held Tavino Base in Black is a waterproof men's textile motorcycle trouser for adventure and touring use. Its 2.5-layer laminate construction combines an integrated Held-Tex membrane with direct crotch ventilation, an adjustable fit and supplied D3O joint protection for mixed-weather riding through summer and spring to autumn.
Who is it for?
These trousers suit road, touring and adventure riders who want dependable waterproofing without losing the ability to increase airflow in warm, dry conditions. Regular, short-leg and slim fit options make the Tavino Base particularly useful for riders who struggle to achieve the correct knee-armour position in a single standard leg length.

Held Tavino Base questions and answers
Are the Tavino Base trousers waterproof?
Yes. Held specifies an integrated Held-Tex climate membrane that is waterproof, windproof and breathable.
Which protectors are included?
The trousers include height-adjustable Level 1 D3O T5 Evo knee protectors and CE-certified hip protectors. Held's current product page does not state a protection level for the hip protectors.
What protection class are they?
Held confirms certification under EN 17092:2020 but does not publish a specific A, AA or AAA class in its current product information. This description therefore does not infer one.
Can they connect to a jacket?
Yes. A connecting zip is fitted, and the Tavino Top is the matching jacket. Held states that a connecting-zip adapter can be necessary when jacket and trouser sizes differ.
What warranty applies?
Held provides a standard two-year manufacturer warranty from the date of purchase. Keep your proof of purchase and follow Held's care instructions.
