Description
Move freely at the crag, gym, or along the trail. The fabric is woven instead of knit to resist abrasion better. Multiple drop-in pockets keep small items handy when you're at a hanging belay. Great for climbing, yoga or hiking, these tights are your gateway to good times outside (or inside).
- Stretch woven nylon and spandex is durable enough for climbing and hiking.
- Wide yoga pants-style waistband is comfortable under a harness or hipbelt.
- Internal drawcord ensures they won't slip out of place.
- Drop-in stretch pockets on the hips and back of waistband store your phone, lip balm, keys and other small essentials.
- Gusseted crotch and stretchy fabric ensure room to move.
- 7/8-style with a 25-inch inseam.
