The zipped pockets allow you to safely store your essentials on the move. The clean waistband and integrated belt provide a comfortable fit, even when carrying a pack.Our VerdictThe Approach Pants are a rare piece that doesnt shout for attention but quietly earns their place in your kit. The Alpine fit and articulated knees give them the right shape for steep ascents without ever feeling restrictive, and the Ascender fabric dries quickly while standing up to scrapes from brush or rock. The integrated belt works well, often i want to change them out for a belt I actually like, but I have no complaints with this one. Pockets are thoughtfully placed the zipped thigh one is especially handy for maps or snacks. At 290g for the Medium, they’re well-suited for long-distance days where function and comfort are your priority. – Reviewed by Ultralight Outdoor GearFeaturesAlpine fit with articulated knees2 front pocketsZipped rear and thigh pocketsIntegrated belt with button waist closureSpecificationsSmall pair weighs: 278gMedium pair weighs: 290gLarge pair weighs: 297gXLarge pair weighs: 306gMaterial & ConstructionASCENDER fabric is light, comfortable and fast drying, 100% Polyamide
