Black Diamond

Alpine Light Pant - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I wore the Black Diamond Alpine Light Pant on a long alpine route that mixed steep hiking with some technical scrambling and they handled the full range without a single complaint. The 4-way stretch fabric never pulled or restricted even on high steps and awkward body positions, and the integrated belt kept the fit locked in through hours of movement without any adjustment needed. The cordlock hems were a small detail I appreciated on the exposed ridge sections where loose fabric would have been an annoyance."

Wind-washed ridges have a way of testing every piece of gear you brought, and the Black Diamond Alpine Light Pant was designed specifically for that kind of environment. Whether you are threading a technical scramble or grinding out a long approach in variable conditions, these pants stay out of the way and let the climbing do the talking.

Black Diamond built the Alpine Light around an 88% nylon, 12% elastane fabric with 4-way stretch and a DWR treatment that handles mountain weather without adding bulk or restricting movement. The integrated belt locks in a precise fit at the waist and eliminates the need for a separate belt on long days where comfort compounds over miles. A gusseted inseam opens up the stride on steep terrain and high steps, while cordlock adjustable hems keep the pant legs controlled in wind and clear of the ground on rough surfaces. Five pockets, including a right side zip, keep essentials accessible without disrupting the clean, movement-forward silhouette that makes these pants equally at home on a crag as they are on a summit approach.
