A staple of hard-playing moun- tain folk, time-honored Guide Pants are now more worthy than ever of crag, ski or scrappy alpine abuse. Soft but burly and highly breathable, the stretch-woven fabric resists weather in any season, while knee and seat articulation keeps tele-turns and high-steps smooth. The waistband and belt loops are cleaner and have less bulk, and the zippered ankle cuffs feature gripper- elastic gussets with tie-down loops to seal out snow. Two thigh pockets are glued in and close with low-bulk, water-repellent DWR zippers. The improved fit allows for underlayers. Imported.
