Karpos K-Performance Mountaineering Pants Black/Fluorescent Green Karpos

Pants designed for mountaineering. Made with a hybrid construction, they offer thermal insulation, excellent resistance and quick drying.

Technical pants developed with the best mountaineers. Karpos has combined Matteo Della Bordella's experience in the mountains of Patagonia and Luka Stražar's on the remote faces of Pakistan to create the ultimate pant, every mountaineer's best friend when the going gets tough and the going gets tough. Thanks to their hybrid construction, they can take on the toughest challenges without compromising movement and speed. Made from Thermodrytex Plus, they are quick-drying and offer optimum thermal capacity: the ideal pants for the most demanding mountaineer. Cordura® K-Stretch fabric inserts on the front and upper back provide enhanced abrasion resistance and wind protection. The pants also feature cut protection in rip-stop elastic Dyneema® fabric, and an internal gaiter at the bottom of the legs with a hook for securing to the shoe. Pants carefully designed down to the smallest detail, ideal for the most demanding mountaineer.
