Marathon mountain days require two things: durability and light weight. The nylon/polyester stretch-woven fabric breathes, resists foul weather, and stretches yet recovers its shape. A soft, brushed interior maintains next-to-skin comfort, and the clean, low-bulk waistband and belt loops won't interfere with a harness. Gusseted bottom cuffs have flap-protected lO-inch zippers, scuff guards, gripper elastic and tie-down loops to seal out snow. The w elded-on single thigh pocket and two hand pockets close with welded-in zippers. With a two-way fly and a trim fit that allows for light underlayers. Imported.
