Mountain Equipment Switch Women's Pant

The Switch Women's Pant provides temperature regulation and windproof protection, making them perfect for cold mountain conditions. They can be worn alone for approaches, between camps, or on demanding pitches and also serve as an insulating layer for harsher environments. Lightweight and quick-drying, these pants are a must-have for any winter, alpine, or Himalayan expedition.

Innovative Active Insulation

The Switch Pant's insulation has a special Octayarn Warp-knit lining that is modern, light, and highly wicking.

Under the microscope, Octayarn's hollow fibres, each with eight protruding 'teeth,' create a 3D structure that traps warm air while wicking away moisture. This boosts insulation and breathability, all while reducing weight and bulk.

Octayarn’s soft, breathable weave works without an inner lining, making it highly efficient at moving moisture away from the skin. It dries quickly after tough climbs, keeping you comfortable through high-intensity activities.

The lightweight stretch-woven outer provides wind resistance and fluorocarbon-free water repellency, shielding you from light rain and cold winds. The gusseted crotch and stretchy fabric offer full freedom of movement for high steps, and the trim fit ensures it layers smoothly. An elastic waistband with a drawcord provides an adjustable fit, with hand pockets and a thigh pocket for stashing essentials.

A Cold-Weather Essential

The Switch Pants represent the best of active insulation, perfect for women working hard in cold weather. Ideal for pre-dawn starts or long days in rugged terrain, these pants offer warmth, comfort, and mobility. They pack small but deliver big when it comes to fast-paced, cold-weather adventures.
