pants
There’s a mighty fine line between auguring in and riding to glory often just the timing of a pole plant or a half-degree shift of the hips. Powderkeg Pants use stretch-woven nylon, laminated to a waterproof/breathable barrier in a motion-friendly design. They’re lightweight and soft, with thigh vents to let off steam. Reinforced knees, seat and cuffs fend off alpine granite and sharp edges. Upper legs are lined with brushed grid mesh that moves moisture and glides snag-free over layers. Full-featured gaiters with gripper elastic, cam buckles and stretch panels stay put, even when you’re post-holing. Thigh vents and a handy right-thigh pocket are accessible under pack straps or harness.
