20-denier nylon ripstop face keeps the pant lightweight and packable.

Considerations & Trade-offs

Minimalist design means there are no pockets, so it’s not built for carrying small essentials on its own.
The 20-denier nylon ripstop face keeps the pant light and packable, but it is a lighter-duty construction than heavier shell fabrics.
Two-way side zips add ventilation and make on/off easier, but they also introduce more openings than a simple pull-on pant.
This is a rain shell pant focused on waterproof protection and movement, so it’s best viewed as a weather layer rather than an all-purpose everyday pant.
