"The Patagonia Powder Town Pant is built around a 2-layer H2No Performance Standard construction, a waterproof-breathable laminate over a 150-denier postconsumer recycled polyester face fabric with fully sealed seams, so a full day of lift-served riding in heavy snow stays on the outside. The front lining uses a tricot mesh that moves with the leg, while the brushed tricot on the rear panel adds warmth where the chairlift seat pulls heat away. What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""The boot gaiters have silicone grippers that lock out snow even when I'm postholing back to the lift, and the inner-thigh vents dump heat fast enough that I'm not soaked from the inside by the time I reach the top."""
