Chockstone Alpine LT Pant - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve climbed in a lot of softshell pants, and this one hits a sweet spot. The stretch is excellent for high steps and heel hooks, and the adjustable waist sits comfortably under a harness. I like that the fabric holds up against rough granite but still breathes well on long approaches."

Steep approaches, long pitches, and unpredictable alpine terrain call for gear that moves without hesitation. The Chockstone Alpine Light Pant from Mountain Hardwear is built for those days when we’re shifting from trail to rock to belay ledge without slowing down. Its lightweight feel keeps us comfortable during long climbs, while the streamlined fit layers cleanly under a harness and moves easily through big steps and technical sequences.

A durable double-weave softshell fabric balances abrasion resistance with four-way stretch, giving us the confidence to commit to tricky heel hooks, wide stems, and awkward off-width moves. The adjustable waist with an integrated belt keeps the fit dialed without interfering with our harness, while articulated knees maintain freedom of movement on steep terrain. Zippered pockets secure small essentials, and hem adjustments help seal out debris when we’re navigating loose alpine approaches.
