These comfortable all-season Outdoor Research pants are extremely lightweight, stretchy, and versatile thanks to AscentShell™ 3L breathable waterproof technology. Throw these on over bulky hiking boots in a flash with their hip-high side zips, and take on any forecast.

Designed to do more than rest at the bottom of your pack as an emergency layer (yes, they're great for that too), Motive AscentShell Pants are optimised for movement, protection, and comfort.

AscentShell™ 3L breathable waterproof technology gives you the very best seam-taped rain protection, with an electrospun air-permeable membrane that releases excess heat. The result are pants that keep you dry from the inside out, weigh less, and pack down into their own back pocket.
