HIMALI Monsoon Hardshell Pant 2.0 - Men's K2 Blue, L

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I wore these on an ice climbing day where I needed to get them on and off quickly over crampons without taking my boots off. The full length side zippers made that painless, and the reinforced insteps showed zero wear after a full day of kicking into ice."Bad weather on a mountaineering objective rarely waits for a convenient moment, and the HIMALI Monsoon Hardshell Pant 2. 0 is built to handle it whenever it shows up. Picture pulling these on over crampons at a cold trailhead before sunrise, and the full length outer leg zippers make that a quick job instead of a fumbling one, even with gloves on. Underneath, a Toray(R) 20K/20K breathable waterproof membrane keeps precipitation out through rain, snow, and wind, while reinforced insteps stand up to the abrasion that crampons and ski edges throw at a pant leg all day. An increased rise keeps things secure under a harness, and a zippered thigh pocket with a waterproof YKK zipper keeps small essentials dry and accessible without needing to stop and dig through a pack.
