Monstrous Norwegian ice pillars and Chugach powder can leave you smiling but soaked. When conditions dictate the need for bomber, waterproof/windproof and breathable big-mountain alpine climbing bibs, our Super Alpines prove durable, dry and mobile. They feature 3-layer nylon GORE-TEX® Pro fabric with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish, tough nylon outer and key-area reinforcements, and a micro-grid interior that optimizes breathability. Watertight, fully separating side-zips allow easy on/off with boots and also form a drop seat; the pressed-pleat chest pockets stay flat, and two more pockets sit on the thighs; trim, watertight zippers throughout feature cleanly designed openings without excess weight and bulk. The ski-boot-compatible lower legs have scuff guards, internal gaiters, shock-cord adjustments and tie-down loops.

Material
Engineered with the most rugged, most breathable, durably waterproof and windproof fabrics, 3-layer GORE-TEX® Pro products meet the demands of outdoor professionals and serious enthusiasts. The 3-layer construction comprises a special high performance GORE-TEX membrane, bonded to a tough outer material and a specially developed robust inner lining. The benefit: no movement between the three layers, which means less wear and tear, and even greater durability.
