Rab Phantom Waterproof Pants

Product detailed description

In addition to the very popular Rab Phantom ultralight waterproof jacket from the trail running collection Skyline, we now also offer Rab Phantom waterproof pants. Weighing just 72 grams in size M, they rank among the lightest items on the outdoor market. Yet, thanks to the stretchy Pertex® Shield 2.5L 7D fabric, they offer standard protection of 20,000 mm water column and breathability of 20,000 g/m²/24h.

Given their excellent packability into an integrated palm-sized mesh pouch (located on the lower back), these pants are ideal as backup "rain pants" for mountain runs, or for "fast and light" hiking and trekking.  The pants are stretchy with a very well-designed, ergonomic, unisex cut (available in sizes XS–XXL) and allow for maximum range of motion. The waist is partially elastic with a drawstring that can be secured. The leg cuffs feature a gusset with a snap and Velcro for easy wear with trail shoes. They also allow you to pull them over and use them with sturdier ankle-high hiking boots, for example. Like the jacket, the Rab Phantom Pants are designed for the lightest possible weight, and naturally, they lack pockets.

The Rab Phantom is ideal for all ultralight enthusiasts heading out on mountain adventures where the weather can quickly turn sour. Paired with the Rab Phantom jacket, you get an ultralight, waterproof, and highly breathable set that should be in every hiker’s backpack. As part of his gear for the demanding Hayduke Trail, our founding father Petr K. also chose this model as his backup waterproof pants. Read more about this famous trek on our blog.
