What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I’ve worn the Topanga Pants from trail to town, and they’ve quickly become my everyday go-to. The UPF 50 protection is a bonus for long days on sun-exposed crags, while the cotton-nylon ripstop blend holds up to rough rock and overgrown trails. The elastic waistband and articulated fit give just the right mix of comfort and movement."When the weekend takes us from slabby boulders to post-send snacks downtown, the Topanga Pants keep pace without missing a beat. Marmot built these with the versatility we crave—stretchy, breathable, and ready for both chalky climbs and casual hangs. The midweight ripstop fabric is abrasion-resistant and surprisingly soft, and the articulated fit ensures that we’re never restricted when reaching for a hold or hustling across town. With thoughtful details like a UPF 50 rating for sunny sessions, a gusseted crotch for mobility, and a mix of secure and drop-in pockets, the Topanga Pants are a perfect blend of utility and low-key style. The elastic waistband, drawcord, and belt loops combine to give us the best of all worlds—trail-ready performance with everyday comfort. Whether we’re climbing, commuting, or kicking back, these pants just make sense.
