Flylow Chemical Pant

  • Accessible pockets and beacon attachment system
  • Effective venting
  • Lightweight
  • Attractive design profile

This shell pant sticks to a no-frills, low-profile design, but there’s plenty of easily accessible pockets, including a designated spot for your beacon, which means you can keep equipment, lip gloss, or whatever, at arms’ reach instead of deep in your pack. There’s nothing extra to get in your way especially if you’re dropping your knee in a Telemark turn or dropping a cliff off the back side of the mountain. These ski pants are also plenty breathable for days in the backcountry with help of effective venting systems for warm spring days and intense efforts.
