33,000ft Women's Rain Pants - Lightweight Waterproof Outdoor Overpants

In this review the 33,000ft Women's Rain Pants stand out as straightforward, practical overpants for outdoor use; they are aimed at hikers, anglers, commuters and anyone who needs a reliable, breathable layer that keeps rain and wind out. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of waterproof protection and breathability: the pants use a welded TPU membrane and fully sealed seams with a 5000mm waterproof rating while the mesh lining and 5000g/m2/24hr breathability rating help prevent overheating during active use.

Key Features

• Waterproof construction: Fully seam-sealed and welded fabric with a TPU membrane provides dependable rain protection for wet conditions.
• Breathable lining: Mesh lining improves airflow and breathability at a 5000g/m2/24hr rating so you can stay comfortable during exertion.
• Adjustable waist: Fully elasticated waistband with internal drawstring lets you fine-tune the fit and layer these over regular pants.
• Quick on/off leg zips: Half leg zippers and Velcro ankle closure allow pulling the pants on over footwear and tailoring the leg opening.
• Secure pockets and visibility: Two zipped pockets with flaps keep small items dry and a reflective piping slit improves visibility in low light.

Who It's For

The 33,000ft rain pants are best for outdoor enthusiasts who need a lightweight, packable waterproof shell that breathes during activity: hikers, anglers, cyclists and commuters will appreciate being able to wear regular pants underneath and stay dry. The functional leg zips make them particularly useful when you need to change quickly without removing boots.

Those who need heavy insulation or technical mountaineering hard shells should look elsewhere, because these are designed as a waterproof overpant and not a fully insulated or extreme-climate layering piece.
