The Enchantments earn their name in summer – as do the Cascade Mountains. In rain-drenched zones, pull on our new Torrentshell Stretch Pants. They give full H2No® Performance Standard waterproof/breathable protection, and the 2.5-layer nylon ripstop fabric stays durable while stretch panels in the articulated knees keep you high-steppin’ in your rain pants. The full-length, two-way separating side zips have watertight, coated zippers (with snap tabs at the top and bottom) and the waist has a watertight zip fly with a snap closure. The waistband is partially elasticized and the elasticized cuffs seal out moisture. Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish.

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.
