Patagonia Shelled Insulator Pant - Men's Basin Green, M

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I pulled these on for a late-season fishing trip where temperatures dropped fast, and the wind was relentless off the water. The windproof laminate made a real difference, and the stretch in the shell never felt restrictive when I was wading or casting from awkward positions."The alarm goes off before first light, and the thermometer outside says this is not a shorts kind of day. The Patagonia Shelled Insulator Pants are exactly what you pull on when the river is calling but the cold is pushing back hard. Built for fishing in cool to cold conditions, they combine a three-layer stretch-woven shell with a windproof laminate and soft grid-fleece insulation that keeps warmth close without turning the lower half into a stiff, bulky mess. Whether you are wading a tailwater in November or hiking into a backcountry lake as the season closes out, these pants move with you and stay out of your way. The 86% recycled polyester and spandex blend stretches in every direction, so casting, crouching, and scrambling over river rock all feel natural. A PFAS-free DWR finish handles light moisture and spray without soaking through, and the windproof membrane underneath takes care of the kind of cutting cold that makes lesser pants feel useless by midmorning. An elasticized waistband keeps the fit comfortable across a long day on the water, and hook-and-loop ankle cuffs let you dial in the fit over wading boots or seal things up tight when the wind picks up. Two front drop-in pockets and a rear zippered security pocket keep essentials close without getting in the way of a good cast.
