Description

A light rain pant for long days in wet mountain weather. The pants pack down into your trail vest and protect your legs as soon as the rain sets in. You wear them over your regular shorts or tights.

Put them on without taking your shoes off. The long leg zips let you pull them on over your trail shoes during a race or at an aid station. You notice this most after hours of rain, when your hands are cold and every stop counts.

Ventilation and freedom of movement. The breathable fabric lets moisture escape, so you get less clammy on climbs. The fabric is thin and rustles: on long descents you hear it most around your knees and pant legs.

Not sure? Choose these as mandatory rain pants for ultras or mountain tours where you carry them in your vest for a long time. If you mostly run short sessions in light rain, a rain jacket is enough.

Frequently asked questions

Do the rain pants fit over my shoes?

Yes, the leg zips run all the way to the ankle, so you pull the pants on over your trail shoes. The zips are water-resistant, so no water gets in through the zip.

Are the pants really waterproof and breathable?

The pants are waterproof up to 30,000 mm and, according to Ultimate Direction, meet the UTMB requirements for mandatory rain gear. They breathe well, but with high effort in warm rain you will always get a little wet on the inside.

How do I carry them in my vest?

The pants stow into their own inside pocket, so they pack down compactly into your trail vest.

Can I adjust the waist?

Yes, a drawcord in the waist lets you adjust the pants to your fit.

(Niet te) licht, goede kwaliteit

133 gram in maat L dus lekker licht, maar de stof is ook weer niet zo dun dat het fragiel aanvoelt. De stof is matzwart met wat structuur, dus lijkt haast een normale broek. De broekspijpen zouden onderaan wat wijder mogen zijn; het is nu met de rits open eigenlijk niet aan te trekken als je een paar trailschoenen draagt.
