Essential 100% waterproof/breathable 2.5-layer hard shell pants for hiking and trekking.

Light enough to be an afterthought, until the downpour. Patagonia's Rain Shadow Pants give fully seam-sealed waterproof/breathable protection. They're made from packable and lightweight, H2No® 2.5-layer tear-resistant nylon with a Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish. On the inside, a raised pattern diffuses and channels moisture away from the skin, aids in hassle-free layering, and enhances long-term durability. Features include a buttoned, zip-fly separating waistband with gripper elastic. In addition, they have anatomically contoured knees and side zips that open from hips to cuffs and have protective storm flaps; the cuffs have gripper elastic and single-snap closures.
