When the skies cut loose an epic storm-of-the-season the Cloudveil Women's RPK Pant stays dry regardless of weather and snow conditions. The key is the Gore-Tex® Soft Shell fabric which is warmer softer and more supple than standard Gore® breathes freely when you're overheated on the lift ride up and seals you up during a leg-burning run down. High abrasion areas are reinforced with durable Schoeller Dynatec to ward off 'with wild abandon' edge cuts. An internal ankle gaiter keeps out the bottomless powder and a 3/4-length outer thigh-to-cuff zip provides much needed venting when you overheat from the exertion of rapid laps. On the next tram up a long slash zip utility hand pocket holds a convenient gog-wipe while you reach in the strategic thigh pocket for some energy bar fortification. Leaning against the window elasticized tabs cinch up the tricot lined belt-looped waist as you prepare to barge the door for first tracks down the newly opened backcountry.
