Montane Men’s SkiMo Softshell Mountain Pants are superb legwear for all activities at altitude including ski mountaineering, ice climbing and mountain walking. Thanks to the Chameleon4 softshell fabric, these trousers are both water resistant and wind resistant and they are specifically designed to combine this weather protection with a high degree of freedom of movement so that your performance level is unhampered. For your comfort, the fabric wicks away perspiration for drier skin while twin mesh-lined thigh vents help to keep your body cool when you are working hard. In addition, the Diamond Face rip-stop weave reinforcement provides a high level of abrasion resistance to protect the insteps against crampon damage. A snug fit for these Montane Men’s SkiMo Softshell Mountain Pants is assured thanks to the hook-and-loop stretch side adjustments and further customisation is provided by such features as the removable braces and gaiters.
