What are the Topitza Softshell Pants?
If you're seeking something durable, stretchy and comfortable, look no further!
The Topitza Pants are softshell trousers that offer reliable weather resistance and freedom of movement. They're perfect for technical mountain activities like scrambling and climbing, yet suit more leisurely adventures too, whether hiking or trekking for multiple days at a time.
What are they made of?
These trousers comprise a blend of polyamide (nylon) and elastane. This combination of yarns creates a super durable, wind-resistant yet soft and stretchy material that works perfectly for long mountain days. Material is treated with a PFC-free DWR (durable water repellent) for enhanced weather resistance, ensuring light rain or snow will bead off the fabric instead of soaking in. Being PFC-free, this treatment is much less harmful to the environment as it doesn't use toxic perfluorinated chemicals, aka 'forever chemicals', that stay in the atmosphere.
Lining inside feels smooth next to the skin to ensure all-day comfort without restriction or excessive bulk.
What are their features?
A higher, elasticated waistband optimises coverage, support and comfort to keep you feeling your best when out on the trails.
For storage, there are two zipped hand pockets, one zipped back pocket and a zipped leg pocket, giving you plenty of space to store small essentials without hindering movement. The zipper of the leg pocket is also laminated to enhance weather resistance and increase durability, making it ideal for more valuable items like a GPS, mobile phone or wallet.
A gusset in the crotch increases mobility and reassures any trouser-splitting concerns you may have when stepping up high (we all have them!).
Preformed knees give a more natural shaping to the legs for added comfort and mobility where needed. Ankles are reinforced to help prevent them from snagging on jagged rocks or crampons, should you be wearing them. They also have a drawstring on each hem, allowing you to cinch material around your boots to keep the weather out and stop any excess material from flapping around.
