Kids think of drizzle and downpours as playdates. Fortunately, Torrentshells are like-minded. They’re made of 2.5-layer 100% nylon ripstop H2No® Performance Standard shell with a waterproof/breathable barrier and a Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish. The elasticized waist in these built-to-take-it kids’ rain pants allows for easy on/off and layering, and an internal drawcord provides a secure fit. With articulated knees and elasticized cuffs to keep the wet chill out, reflective trim for visibility and webbing loops inside the cuffs to attach tie-down straps.

Material
2.5-layer H2No® Performance Standard shell fabrics are waterproof, windproof, breathable and highly packable. They combine a water-repellent shell fabric with a waterproof barrier and a raised pattern on the inside, instead of the interior scrim used in 3-layer fabrics. The raised pattern makes 2.5-layer fabric light and compressible, while still protecting the waterproof barrier.
Technology
Deluge® DWR
Patagonia’s proprietary durable water repellent fabric finish, Deluge DWR, lasts substantially longer than standard DWRs. Garments with the Deluge DWR finish have like-new repellency after years of extensive use.
