The North Face Freedom Pant - Men's TNF Black, L/Long

The Freedom Pant builds on The North Face's waterproof DryVent shell with a stretch fabric blend that wasn't part of the prior non-stretch build, so knees and hips move through a full range on the hill instead of fighting the fabric. A WindWall lining cuts wind chill without adding insulation, and a FlashDry seat panel manages moisture in the one spot that takes the most contact on chairlifts and sidehills. That combination lets the pant handle a full storm day while leaving the warmth layer entirely up to what's worn underneath. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I noticed the stretch the first time I dropped into a mogul line without feeling the fabric pull across my thighs. It moves with a deep knee bend instead of fighting it, which matters more than any spec sheet number once I'm actually skiing."
