Patagonia Womens Rain Shadow Pants (Autumn 2012)
Light enough to be an afterthought until the downpour; our Rain Shadow Pants provide fully seam-sealed waterproof/breathable protection. They're made from packable, lightweight and tear-resistant 2.5-layer 100% nylon with an H2NoŽ barrier and a DelugeŽ DWR (durable water repellent) finish. On the inside, a raised pattern diffuses and channels moisture away from the skin, aids in hassle-free layering, and enhances long-term durability. Features include a buttoned, partially elasticized separating waistband with a zip-fly; a clean, comfortable finish; articulated knees; and fully separating side zips with snap closures at the ankle and waist. Gripper elastic cuffs. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program. Details Lightweight 2.5-layer tear-resistant nylon shell with a waterproof/breathable H2No barrier and Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish Highly engineered interior surface texture channels moisture away from skin, and protects the waterproof/breathable barrier from abrasion and slides easily over layers Clean-finished separating waistband is partially elasticized and has a zip fly Fully separating side-zips are watertight, coated and treated with a Deluge DWR finish; snap closures at the ankle and waist Articulated knees 2.5-layer, 2.5-oz 100% nylon, with a waterproof/breathable H2NoŽ barrier and a DelugeŽ DWR (durable water repellent) finish. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program 297 g (10.5 oz) Made in Vietnam. Material 2.5-layer H2NoŽ shell fabrics are waterproof, windproof, breathable and highly packable. They combine a water-repellent shell fabric with our H2No waterproof barrier and a raised pattern on the inside, instead of the full-coverage interior scrim used in 3-layer fabrics. The raised pattern makes 2.5-layer fabric packages lighter and more compressible while still protecting the waterproof barrier.
