GORE-TEX® PRO 80D Construction

The Mountain Equipment Lhotse Pant uses 3-layer GORE-TEX® PRO 80D fabric throughout. This robust hard shell construction is designed for mountaineering where protection, durability, and reliable performance are essential.

Alpine Fit with Articulated Knees

The Alpine fit provides a practical shape for technical mountain activities, while articulated knees allow greater freedom of movement. This makes the pants suitable for climbing, scrambling, and other demanding alpine movements.

3/4-Length YKK® WR Side Zips

The 3/4-length YKK® WR side zips make it easier to put the pants on and take them off when conditions change quickly. They provide convenient access while maintaining the practical design required for mountain use.

Integrated Belt and Brace Attachment Points

An integrated belt with a double press-stud waist closure provides a secure and comfortable fit throughout the day. Brace attachment points are also included for users who prefer additional support.
