Shell Snow Pants for Backcountry Skiing

Climbing skins, bootpacks and long traverses generate plenty of heat, which is why shell pants skip the insulation. Oakley shell snow pants deliver waterproof, windproof protection in a lightweight, breathable package that lets you control warmth with your own layers. Thigh vents dump heat on the uphill, reinforced cuffs resist edge cuts and integrated gaiters seal out deep snow. Pair them with a base layer on spring days or add a mid layer when temperatures drop, and stay dry from the skin track to the final turn.
