Durable, protective, and built for deep days, these freeride hardshell pants deliver serious backcountry performance with a loose, movement-friendly fit.

Part of the streamlined and highly functional Ravine Series, the Ravine Free 3L Pants are engineered for freeriders who want gear that can keep up with rugged terrain, variable conditions, and big objectives. The design prioritizes durability, weatherproof protection, and uncomplicated functionality—from long skin tracks to steep descents.

The pants feature the new Ravine 3L laminate, a non-porous PU membrane that is naturally durable, highly weatherproof, and easy to care for. With an outer made from 51% recycled polyamide, the fabric stands up to constant movement, abrasion, and stormy weather.

• Waterproof rating: ≥ 20,000 mm

• Breathability: up to 25,000 g/m²/24h

• Weight: 586 g

• Windproof and long-lasting

• Back panel lined with merino for warmth and comfort where you need it most

This combination keeps you dry during wet storms, ventilated during high-output touring, and protected from gnarly winds at elevation.
