VERY ROBUST, TECHNICAL SOFTSHELL PANTS WITH INTEGRATED GAITERS FOR HIGH ALPINE TOURS
Mighty glacial crevasses, combined rock and ice terrain and impressive summits: On alpine tours, we need clothing that is adaptable and that we can 100 % rely upon. This is exactly where WESTALPEN SOFTSHELL line comes into play: A combination of scuff-resistant MERINO NATURETEC RIPS inserts, NATURETEC LIGHT material and fine merino wool on the inside makes this line robust, breathable and comfortable.
- What’s special about the WESTALPEN SOFTSHELL high-alpine touring pants is the QUICK-GAITER system, which completely replaces gaiters: This hem adjustment developed by ORTOVOX can be easily and quickly adjusted in three steps and fits seamlessly over mountaineering boots.
- The fastening straps for under your mountaineering boots are made of abrasion-resistant Dyneema material and allow for neat, easy storage when not in use.
- Thanks to additional features such as ventilation zippers and abrasion-resistant schoeller® inserts for protection against sharp edges, WESTALPEN SOFTSHELL high-alpine touring pants can be adapted to all situations and weather conditions.
- Merino mesh inserts at the adjustable waistband make the pants even more comfortable.
- For the sake of the environment, these high-alpine touring pants are also PFC-free and manufactured entirely in Europe, thus avoiding long transport routes.
