Dude, you know good pants when you see them. The thirtytwo Essex Pants have a 10k, two-layer REPEL waterproof-breathable construction to help keep out the cold and wet, with lined handwarmer pockets for comfort on and off the mountainside, and triple stitch construction for extra assurance that you can do all the things that make snowboarding fun. Diamond inner thigh venting helps you dump heat when you start to really get on a roll and don't want to slow down, with reinforced a reinforced hem and kick panels to minimize wear from binding abrasion.
