Made with omni-tech material that blocks out cold winds and snow, these waterproof, breathable snow pants are ready to take on whatever activities the winter season may bring. These pants are also seam sealed and coated with a waterproof nylon to give you extra protection from the elements, making them great to wear on rainier days as well.

While they’re lightweight and breathable, these pants also feature a mesh lining on the inside to lock in heat and keep you cozy and comfortable while skiing, snowboarding, or even hiking when you want an added layer of warmth. A drawcord adjustable waist and an impressive range of 18 sizes make these pants well suited for anyone, and adjustable leg openings go the extra mile to eliminate cold wind on your skin.
