The Men's Black Diamond Dawn Patrol Pant is a versatile softshell pant for winter backcountry adventurers. If personal manpower is the way you get up and down the mountain, then the breathable, stretchy, double-weave fabric in these pants are for you. Treated with a durable water repellent finish, it sheds light snow. Heat escapes so you don't overheat, while zippered thigh vents can be opened to further cooling during extensive high-output moments. Down at the cuffs, snow gaiters keep snow out while allowing boot access, plus instep patches protect against sharp gear.
