What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"These are the pants I grab for cold, dry days when breathability and flexibility matter most. They vent like champs on the skintrack and handle wind without overheating. I love the athletic fit, and the reinforced knees and seat mean I don’t worry about wear and tear."When conditions are dry but demanding, we count on the lofoten flex1 Pants to power through powder laps and big mountain ascents. Built for freeride skiing and sidecountry adventures, these softshell pants deliver the breathability and mobility we need for cold-weather pushing without the bulk or stiffness of traditional hardshells. The flex1 double weave softshell material blocks wind, breathes effortlessly, and stands up to rugged terrain with a soft, durable touch. Reinforced panels at the knees and seat provide extra protection in high-contact zones, while the high rear waistband, articulated knees, and integrated waist adjustment system ensure a dialed fit that moves with us. Whether we’re dropping cliffs or setting skintracks, these pants bring big mountain performance with a freeride soul.
