"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""These pants are awesome for cold-weather workouts. The corduroy front blocks wind shockingly well, while the softshell back keeps things breathable on climbs. The articulated knees make a big difference when you’re really striding out, and the leg zips are perfect for pulling them on over boots. They’re warm, sharp-looking, and built to move."" We love the Boulder Pant for its rare mix of technical protection and modern styling on winter training days. Wind-resistant corduroy fabric shields us from icy gusts, while the brushed interior delivers soft warmth that keeps our legs comfortable through early-morning starts and long, steady efforts. The back panel’s 3-layer softshell with a TPU membrane offers extra water-repellent and wind-resistant performance, giving us confidence when snow starts falling mid-workout. Articulated knees and elastic panels support natural movement on climbs and descents, allowing us to stride freely without restriction. With thoughtful details—like YKK zippers, leg zips for easy transitions, and secure hand pockets—these pants check every functional box while maintaining a clean, athletic silhouette. Finished with a PFC-free DWR coating, the Boulder Pant protects us and the environment during every nordic lap or cold-weather adventure."
