In place of all the bells and whistles one usually finds on waterproof ski pants, the Mountain Hardware Men's Epic Pant is built for one simple reason, to provide protection on go-light, go-fast backcountry trips. Multiple pockets, side zips, and belt loops are not found on the Epic Pant, but the Conduit Silk coating provides an all important waterproof barrier that breathes and feels smooth and dry against bare skin or a base layer. Articulated knees keep you striding in comfort as you push on through rain, snow, or sleet to reach your next camp.
Very Useful
use these pants all the time, great product
Combined with Altrec's Customer Service...Great Buy!
Purchased these pants along with the MH Epic Jacket after spending a camping weekend in the rain w/o a decent set of waterproof garments. The pants fit me fine. I'm 5'9", 180, and the large is just a tiny bit long in the waist and a little long in the legs but I'm pretty sure the medium would be too small. The waist is more comfortable (doesn't bunch up or sag) and there is plenty of legroom. Perhaps a bit too much legroom as the pants feel a bit too wide but should be perfect with a pair of tights or something under them. I haven't had the pants out in the rain to test them but if they perform as well as the Epic Jacket I have I'm sure I'll be happy with them.
Fantastical
Super lightweight and cool-feeling. Oh yeah, it keeps you nice and dry, too.
