What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I’ve been wearing the Crux 3/4 Pant on climbs and approaches all season, and they’ve seriously impressed me. The 18-inch inseam gives me full mobility without overheating, and the stretch-cotton ripstop is burly without being stiff. They dry fast, resist snags, and the low-profile belt stays out of the way under a harness."We rely on the Crux 3/4 Pant when the route gets technical and the rock gets abrasive. Royal Robbins built these cropped adventure pants to honor classic climbing style while packing in modern performance details. The 18-inch inseam gives just the right amount of coverage without restricting movement, and articulated knees let us stem, jam, and scramble freely on the wall. The cotton-rich ripstop fabric is blended with elastane for added stretch, delivering abrasion resistance that doesn’t feel stiff or heavy. An integrated, low-profile belt and elastic waistband ensure a secure fit under a harness or backpack strap. Side stash pockets keep essentials close, and a UPF 40+ rating helps shield us from the high alpine sun. Whether we’re pushing into granite cracks or moving fast on technical trails, these pants are ready.
