Foray Pant - Men's

GORE-TEX PACLITE is a specialized fabric technology that is both waterproof and breathable. This means it keeps rain and moisture out while allowing sweat to escape, keeping you dry and comfortable during activities like hiking or camping. It’s perfect for unpredictable weather, ensuring you stay protected without overheating.

Fully sealed seams are crucial because they prevent water from seeping through the stitching. Unlike regular stitching, which can create tiny holes, fully sealed seams are covered with waterproof tape, ensuring that your garment remains effective in keeping you dry, even in heavy rain.

The face fabric is the outer layer of the pants, made from durable 100% polyester plain weave. It acts as the first line of defense against the elements, providing protection from wear and tear while contributing to the overall waterproofing of the garment. A strong face fabric ensures your pants can withstand rugged outdoor conditions.

The inseam is the measurement from the crotch to the bottom of the leg. To find your ideal inseam, measure a pair of pants that fit you well or measure your leg from the crotch to your desired length. A proper inseam ensures comfort and mobility, which are essential for outdoor activities.

Packable pants can be easily folded or rolled into a compact size, often fitting into a designated pocket. This feature is incredibly useful for outdoor enthusiasts who need lightweight, portable gear that can be quickly accessed when weather conditions change. It allows you to carry less bulk while being prepared for unexpected rain.
