Rab Ascendor Walking Pants
Alpine climbing in the shoulder seasons calls for these midweight, articulated pants, balancing protection, low weight, and unrestricted mobility.
A staple in your walking wardrobe, these slim, highly articulated, midweight softshell pants deliver the mobility and protection you need for pitching alpine routes in mixed conditions. Engineered with our toughest double weave Matrix fabric, they endure scrapes with rock while keeping bulk to a minimum, ensuring a comfortable fit with your harness. Kicker patches defend against crampon tears and offer durability where you need it most, whilst the low-bulk waistband sits comfortably under a harness, with a snap closure and zip fly. The pants can be combined with a range of boots thanks to the snap adjustment at the hem and the two zipped hand pockets and one thigh pocket provide plenty of storage on the move and are, again, compatible with a harness. The knee lift, articulation and a long-length gusset all provide excellent freedom of movement, allowing you to tackle whatever the great outdoors holds ahead. A DWR finishes off the pants, keeping you protected in light showers.
