Rab Ladakh Gore-Tex Paclite Plus Pants

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Highly packable, highly breathable 2.5-Layer waterproof Gore-Tex Paclite Plus Pants.

Rab says: 

Ultralight and breathable waterproof pants, ideal for stashing in a pack. Designed to offer alpinists and mountaineers lightweight, packable, pull-on protection when the weather deteriorates, with ¾ length zip for easy on-off over boots.

Our Verdict

Hard-working, hard-wearing waterproof protection for alpinists and mountaineers. Very packable and very easy to put on. I’m a big fan of the triple zips on the ¾ length zips; this enables the trousers to be opened at the tops so that they can quickly vent heat, like pit zips, but for trousers.
