The backcountry can be unforgiving. Nature doesn't care who you are or what you're trying to do, it will send inclement weather, hurricane-force winds, blizzards, and downpours for hours at a time. The Shralpinist Pant was designed with a three-layer GORE-TEX PRO fabric to provide the ultimate weatherproof protection for long expeditions. Its body-mapped construction provides breathability on the inner legs, with rugged durability in the seat and knees. While this pant is prepared to protect you from most inclement weather, we recommend pairing this shell with a natural/synthetic baselayer or mid-layer for added warmth.
