What are the Downpour Mountain Pants?
They're lightweight, highly packable and protective waterproof trousers that are built with 2.5-layer Pertex® Shield technology. Soft and comfortable, they boast superb knee articulation for complete mobility, making them suitable for wide range of outdoor activities.
What are they made from?
The Downpour Mountain Pants use a 2.5 layer Pertex® Shield construction, which is a highly breathable, waterproof fabric designed for use in the mountains when protection, weight and breathability are key. This 2.5 layer material combines a robust 40D face fabric and a waterproof, windproof and breathable membrane with a smooth backer. The face fabric is finished with a PFC-Free DWR (durable water repellent) coating to encourage rain to bead off the trousers instead of soaking in, without the use of harmful forever chemicals.
Pertex® Shield delivers a hydrostatic head rating of 20,000mm and a breathability MVTR score of 20,000 g/m2/24hrs, meaning it offers great waterproof protection and breathability, making them suitable for various outdoor activities.
What are their features?
These versatile waterproof overtrousers have a concise feature set to keep weight and pack size to a minimum. A lightweight, part-elasticated waistband with a hoop and loop closure provides a secure and comfortable fit for a variety of outdoor activities.
Articulation at the knees and a long-length gusset at the crotch provide ease of movement for various outdoor activities. The full-length, two-way YKK® AquaGuard® side zips make it easy to pop them on and off when the heavens open, even over chunky boots. The side zips feature triple pullers for flexible ventilation options, whilst the internal storm guards prevent water and wind from entering the trousers via the zips. Snap closure adjustments to the bottom hem allow you to easily tailor the fit around a variety of different footwear styles.
