What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I love these pants for summer hikes and backpacking trips. The AirExchange fabric is super breathable, keeping me cool even when the temps rise. Plus, the UPF 50 sun protection is a huge bonus when I'm out all day. The snap closure and internal drawcord let me adjust the fit just right, and the elastic waistband adds comfort. They dry fast too, so if I hit a creek crossing or get caught in the rain, I’m never stuck in soggy pants for long."Warm-weather trekking calls for breathable comfort, and the AirExchange SolarShield Pant rises to the occasion.
