La Sportiva Monument Pant - Women's Cypress/Night Sky, L

The La Sportiva Monument Pant is built from stretch fabric with articulated inserts, so a steep switchback or a fast scramble doesn't mean fighting the pant to get there. A three-part waistband system, elastic, hook and eye, and an internal drawstring, keeps the fit locked in through elevation changes and pace shifts that would work a simpler waistband loose. Four zippered pockets, including a dedicated thigh pocket, keep gear secure and within reach without slowing anyone down to dig for it. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I pushed hard through a series of steep switchbacks and never had to stop and readjust the waistband or feel the fabric holding me back. That's the difference between a pant built for a casual walk and one built for actually covering ground fast."
