Norrona Femund Flex1 Pant - Women's Navy Blazer, M

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I wore the Norrona Femund Flex1 Pant on a long mountaineering objective that had a serious approach, some technical ridge work, and a lot of vertical, and the mesh-lined thigh vents were something I was actively grateful for on the steep calorie-burning sections where softshell pants usually have me overheating before I even get to the crux. The Custom-fit waist and ankle zippers meant I could dial the fit around my boots without any bulk bunching up underneath my crampons.""Technical mountain days demand pants that move as well as you do, and the Norrona Femund Flex1 Pant was built to meet that standard without compromise. The flex1 fabric blends recycled nylon, polyester, and elastane into a softshell that stretches in every direction, and articulated knees with a gusseted crotch mean the pant accommodates high steps, wide stances, and everything a demanding route puts in front of you. A PFC-free DWR coating sheds light moisture and trail-side brush without relying on harmful chemicals, keeping the construction responsible without sacrificing performance. When the pitch steepens and the effort spikes, mesh-lined thigh vents open up to dump heat and moisture before they become a problem. The Custom-fit waist system and belt loops let you tune the fit precisely, while ankle zippers and a gaiter hook dial in the lower leg around hiking shoes or mountaineering boots without creating bulk or gaps. Seven pockets, including a dedicated phone pocket inside the right thigh, keep essentials organized and accessible whether you are navigating a technical ridge or transitioning at a high camp. Bluesign approved and built from recycled materials, the Femund Flex1 Pant earns its place in a performance kit without leaving an outsized footprint behind."
