What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"These are the pants I grab when I'm heading out for a big tour. They're light and super breathable for the skintrack, but the 20K/20K Dermizax fabric is tough enough for stormy descents. The built-in belt and long side vents make them perfect for long days in the mountains."The Freebird 3L Pant is built for backcountry tours where mobility, protection, and breathability are non-negotiable. Its 20K/20K Toray Dermizax EV 3-layer shell keeps us dry in heavy snow while letting excess heat and moisture escape during the climb. A wide cut and stretch construction give us the freedom to kick turns, bootpack, and move through technical terrain without restriction. Thoughtful touring features include long side zips for ventilation, an integrated belt for secure fit, and Cordura(R) reinforcements at the hems for durability against crampons and ski edges. The internal boot gaiter keeps snow out, while multiple zippered pockets-including a beacon sleeve-keep essentials close at hand. With a RECCO(R) reflector for added safety, the Freebird 3L Pant is ready for deep days and big objectives.
