Alpine GORE-TEX 3L Pants

The Alpine GORE-TEX C-Knit 3L Shell Pants are men’s freeride shell pants from Peak Performance, its pro shell for off-piste skiing. A 70-denier recycled nylon ripstop face sits over an ePE membrane, and the soft C-Knit jersey backer keeps the three-layer fabric comfortable against the skin without losing breathability. They’re fully seam-sealed, rated to a 28,000 mm water column, and made without intentionally added PFAS.

Peak Performance calls them highly durable, and the lower legs get the most reinforcement. Cordura protects the hem, and snow gaiters with anti-slip elastic seal over the boots. Half-leg zips open to control temperature, loops take a jacket’s snow skirt, and a RECCO reflector makes the wearer searchable to professional rescuers. The fit is regular and mid-rise, with straight, articulated legs, and they weigh 550 g. Shown in Black.
