Outdoor Research Women's Aspire 3L Pants - Waterproof Trousers

The Outdoor Research Women's Aspire 3L Pants are waterproof trousers for demanding conditions, from wet hikes to alpine terrain. AscentShell™ Dry 3L fabric combines waterproofing, breathability and stretch so you stay protected without overheating when you are working hard.

The 3/4-length side zips let you pull them on over boots and vent fast on a steep pull, while articulated knees and a gusseted crotch keep technical steps feeling natural. The back pocket doubles as a stuff sack, internal instep lace loops keep the cuffs in place and a carabiner loop is there for essentials. A PFAS-free Nikwax Direct Dry DWR keeps water beading off over time, YKK® Aquaguard® zips seal the openings and the construction is fully seam-taped.
