Description
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
“These pants are my go-to for ski touring missions. The Proflex fabric breathes way better than traditional hardshells but still keeps snow out when I’m breaking trail. The stretch is huge for kick turns, and the thigh vents let me cool off fast. Reinforced cuffs and crampon patches mean they hold up to real backcountry use.”
When we’re skinning under a breaking sunrise or traversing into untouched bowls, the Rab Khroma Kinetic Pant keeps us dry, mobile, and focused. Built with 20D Proflex fabric, these pants deliver the stretch and breathability of a softshell with the reliable waterproofing of a hardshell—perfect for demanding backcountry days where both uphill comfort and downhill protection matter.
Articulated knees and a hint of stretch help us move naturally on technical kick turns, while outer-thigh vents keep airflow steady during steep ascents. Reinforced hems and crampon patches boost durability against sharp edges and rugged terrain, and integrated gaiters seal out snow when we’re breaking trail through deep powder. Finished with ski-specific pockets and easy waist adjustment, the Khroma Kinetic balances function, comfort, and protection for long days exploring alpine terrain.
