Simple and durable, these over trousers have been winning awards for many years. Great for ventilation, very packable and incredibly light, it’s easy to see why.
Outdoor Research says
Waterproof, breathable, and lightweight, the GORE-TEX® Foray Pants have been winning awards for years for their dependable rain protection and feature-packed details. 3/4-length side zippers let you pull these on over your hiking boots mid-downpour, and vent out excess heat when you're working hard. Its back pocket doubles as a stuff sack so you can pack it down easily when conditions calm down and dry off, and it has a carabiner loop to easily clip onto a backpack or climbing harness.
Our Verdict
Made from Gore-Tex’s bluesign-approved 2-layered fabric, this is a very light, but heavy-duty construction. With a Hydrostatic Head of 28,000 and a Thermal Evaporative Resistance (RET) of 4.5, these over trousers boast some impressive stats.
¾ length zips are great for quickly putting on over boots and the dual zip design means you can also quickly ventilate heat if working hard in the rain.
An elasticated waistband, that can be cinched with a drawcord, ensures a good fit that won’t constrict.
A really nice feature is that the trousers easily stuff into the zipped back pocket, which makes them very packable.
