The Mountain Equipment Makalu Women's Pant is a durable and versatile waterproof trouser designed for hiking, scrambling and mountaineering in changeable mountain conditions. Made with robust 3-layer GORE-TEX fabric, these trousers provide dependable waterproof, windproof and breathable protection while remaining comfortable enough for all-day use.
The 70D GORE-TEX construction offers a strong balance of durability, weather protection and comfort, making the Makalu an excellent choice for year-round mountain adventures. The Alpine fit incorporates articulated knees for unrestricted movement and provides room for additional layers without creating unnecessary bulk.
When bad weather arrives, the ¾-length YKK® AquaGuard® side zips make it easy to pull the trousers on over walking boots or crampons. They can also be opened for additional ventilation during strenuous climbs. An integrated belt and double press-stud waist closure provide a secure fit, with attachment points for braces when required.
Reinforced kick strips protect against crampon damage and abrasion, while adjustable hems allow the trousers to be sealed closely around mountain boots. With two secure hand pockets and a two-way fly zip, the Makalu offers practical performance for demanding days outdoors.
