The Outdoor Research Cirque III Pant matches the energy of technical summits. The tough yet breathable fabrication resists tears and abrasions against rock and ice while also resisting winds and moisture to prevent our bones from getting chilled by the alpine's cruel conditions. As we climb, the movement-mirroring stretch and articulated knees ensure it will be only our own mobility that holds us back. And for added peace of mind on our journey, we keep our beacon safely clipped and zipped inside the thigh pocket.
