Backcountry MTN Air Pant

Why We Built The Backcountry MTN Air Pant

"Finally, packable wind-resistance for my legs too. And I really appreciate how the material is still ultralight and really breathable." —Gearhead® Expert Sammy

When we reach the summit, we pull on our Backcountry MTN Air Pant for protection against crisp alpine winds that still lets our burning thighs cool down. The elastic waist and oversized, universal fit slide easily over our hiking shorts, and the hems´ drawcords let us cinch out gust-blown dirt. Just like the other layers in our Mountain Air Collection, this pant is built with Pertex Quantum Air material that does the most at the lowest weight—optimal breathability, tremendous wind-resistance, and water-shedding prowess. As we make our way back to the trailhead, the light yet burly ripstop panels save our skin from overreaching branches and rough rock scrambles, and the treated fibers keep us dry as the gray clouds roll in and start to spit. Performance aside, the construction´s recycled content and PFC-free water-repellent finish keep our conscience clear, letting us focus more on getting out there.
