What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I like these because they're actually easy to get on when the weather turns-those ankle zips save time. The stretch fabric feels way less restrictive than classic rain pants, especially on steeper climbs."We pack the PreCip Evo Flex Pant when variable weather is on the itinerary and staying light on our feet matters. Marmot's NanoPro(TM) waterproof membrane delivers breathable protection through passing showers and steady rain, while the recycled ripstop fabric adds built-in stretch that keeps our stride natural across slick roots, rocky steps, and long miles. Slide zips at the ankles make it easy to pull the pants on over boots, and once we're moving, the elastic waistband and internal drawcord keep the fit secure without feeling restrictive. Zippered hand pockets and a zippered back pocket protect essentials we want close at hand, and when the skies finally clear, the pants stuff into their own pocket for compact, pack-friendly storage. With dependable waterproofing and flexible comfort, the PreCip Evo Flex Pant becomes a go-to layer for shoulder-season treks and fast-changing trail days.
