What are the Muztag Pants?
The Muztag Shell Pants are a super tough, breathable pair of waterproof trousers designed for year-round use in the worst conditions nature has to offer. Winter climbing, technical ascents or wat winter in the mountains – the Muztags will handle it all. They have been engineered to deliver the perfect balance between protection and weight.
What are they made of?
The Muztags are made using a 40D Gore-Tex Pro Most Breathable membrane. It provides the perfect combination of comfort and toughness, allowing moisture vapour to escape even when you’re working hard – so you’ll be kept dry from the inside as well as the outside.
At the bottom of the trousers, the Muztags feature 300D crampon patch reinforcements at the ankle to deal with crampon strikes and slipped footwork. The trousers are then given a DWR coating to help water and snow bead off.
What are their features?
The Muztags feature a 7/8th 2-way YKK AquaGuard side zips down the legs that allow you to take the trousers off and put them on without having to remove your walking or mountaineering boots. The zips both have an internal storm guard to seal out the elements and triple pullers so you can unzip to get to your pockets or use them as vents to dump excess heat. The zippered fly is a 2-way YKK AquaGuard zip and the fully adjustable and removable braces provide extra reassurance and stability when you’re making big moves. If you don’t fancy using the braces the Muztags have additional belt loops and waist adjustment. The underboot attachment points and ergonomically shaped hem easily accommodates mountain boots whilst still allowing you to see your feet on tricky moves.
How do they fit?
The Muztags use Rab’s Regular Fit, so the trousers don’t sit skin-tight allowing you to fit walking trousers and baselayers on underneath them without hindering your movement.
