What are the Elevation Pants?
Rab has designed these pants for women who have a love for adventure. Whether it's climbing in the crags of the Highlands, summiting the tallest peak of the Brecon Beacons or conquering the school run, these trousers provide similar comfort and durability to standard softshell pants with the flexibility and convenience of leggings.
What are they made of?
The Elevation Pants are constructed with a versatile, lightweight Matrix™ double weave, four-way stretch and a DWR (durable water repellent) coating. This specialised softshell fabric provides lightweight weather protection whilst helping to increase comfort and encourage freedom of movement.
What are their features?
The lightweight Matrix™ double weave fabric has a four-way stretch to improve mobility, making them suitable for challenging pursuits like outdoor climbing or scrambling steep summits. The deep, elasticated waistband offers the feeling of a second skin, like a legging that hugs and moves with the body, limiting that feeling of being squeezed and restricted that often comes with ill-fitting pants or a tight belt. They feel so good you might never want to take them off! A drawcord adjustment on the waistband enables you to personalise the fit around the midsection, optimising comfort. A zippered pocket on the right thigh offers secure storage for valuables that you want to keep close, such as your phone or keys, handy when dangling on an overhang or when you want to simply stroll across the local woodland with the minimum amount of kit. The seams look minimal and streamlined, helping to create an overall flattering design, combining functionality with style, an innovative, contemporary piece of outdoor wear suitable for a whole range of activities.
How do they fit?
The Elevation Pants are a slim fit, sitting next to the skin which offers a flattering shape without the bulk of regular hiking or climbing trousers.
Where do they fit in the layering system?
Wear these as a lightweight outer layer for activities that may require more dynamic movement and stretch or fit them underneath a pair of waterproof trousers for longer expeditions when extra protection from the elements is needed.
