What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: “These pants are next-level. I’ve used them for alpine riding, scrambling, and muddy hike-a-bikes, and the articulation and weatherproofing are unreal. They breathe well, move even better, and pack down small. It’s like armor without the bulk.”Built for days when the terrain is unforgiving and the weather unpredictable, the 7mesh Guardian Apex Pant is our new standard for high-output adventure. Whether we’re grinding up a soggy forest road, navigating exposed rock slabs, or setting up camp after dark, this pant blends all-weather defense with mobility that feels nearly custom-fit. Made with GORE-TEX ePE—a PFAS-free innovation that’s both waterproof and breathable—the Apex is a high-performance pant that doesn't compromise on sustainability or durability. Designed with a decades-deep understanding of motion, the Apex features exceptional articulation, reinforced wear zones, and a double-zip hem that adjusts effortlessly for cycling shoes or ventilation. The no-flip belt and locking waist adjusters keep things dialed mid-mission, while a zippered side pocket secures the essentials. From remote mountain bike routes to alpine ridge scrambles, we trust the Guardian Apex Pant to go the distance, no matter how wild the weather or the objective.
