Patagonia Mixed Alpine Pant - Women's Black, 2

The Patagonia Mixed Alpine Pant maps waterproof fabric to the knees and seat, exactly where spindrift and wet snow punish a pant hardest on a mixed route, while breathable side panels and a gusset keep the legs moving freely through high steps and stemming. A low-profile waist closure and webbing waistbelt sit comfortably under a harness, with laser-cut suspender attachment points hidden inside the waistband for days that call for extra support. Scuff guards and built-in snow gaiters seal out debris at the cuff, sized to work with alpine boots or light ski-touring boots. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I knelt into wet snow on a belay ledge for twenty minutes straight and never felt it come through, and the side panels still let me high-step onto the next placement without the pant fighting me."
