Arc'teryx Gamma Pant

To prevent rough mountain terrain and changing weather from restricting movement, the Arc'teryx Gamma Pant in Black combines high abrasion resistance with four way stretch performance. Constructed from Fortius DW 2.0 softshell fabric, this versatile technical trouser solves the problem of heavy, rigid outdoor pants causing overheating or chafing during strenuous ascents. Featuring weather resistant surface treatment, a low profile integrated belt system, and secure zipped cargo pockets, it provides lightweight protection and unhindered mobility across alpine trails and exposed crags.

Washing & Care Instructions

Arc'teryx Gamma Pant - Our FAQs

1. How water resistant are the Arc'teryx Gamma Pant in Black? The Fortius DW 2.0 fabric features a DWR coating that repels light rain and road spray, though a full hardshell trouser is recommended for persistent heavy downpours.
2. Can I wear a climbing harness comfortably over these trousers? Yes, the low profile adjustable belt and flat waistband are engineered specifically to lie flush under a harness or heavy backpack hip belt.
3. What season are these softshell pants best suited for? They perform exceptionally well from mid spring through late autumn, offering effective wind blocking without trapping excess body heat.
4. How do I reapply the water repellent finish after washing? Tumble drying on low heat re-activates the initial DWR treatment, but a wash in re-proofing spray can be applied periodically to restore water resistance.
5. Are the hem openings adjustable? Yes, the lower cuffs feature internal shock cords that pull tight around hiking boots to block out mud and debris.
