Durable, lightweight softshell pants with merino on the inside for long ski tours
We have improved our MERINO NATURETEC line down to the finest detail for the new ski touring season! The material used in our BACUN PANTS for men is now even more stable yet provides the same freedom of movement.
Of course, the functional design of the fabric remains exactly the same: The finest merino fibers on the inside are interwoven with a protective polyamide shell. Thus we achieve outstanding breathability without a membrane, while the material’s tight weave is still extremely wind and water-resistant. On the inside, merino fibers provide perfect moisture and temperature regulation. The natural fibers wick up moisture, transporting them to the fiber cores and then outwards so that the surface stays dry and comfortable on the skin.
Features such as the adjustable waistband and elastic ankle cuffs, which are very quick to adjust, guarantee that these ski touring pants for men fit perfectly. Reworked merino mesh inserts in the waistband provide extra comfort. What’s more, our BACUN PANTS for men have a slightly higher waist to protect your back from the snow and the cold. Integrated gaiters, which are coated with silicone on the inside of the ankle cuffs, also protect against snow. The thigh pocket has more than enough room for your avalanche transceiver, and the integrated light carabiner will prevent it getting lost. Other small items that are required quickly can be stowed away in one of the hip pockets. And in case it gets a bit more challenging: the side zippers will cool you down on sweat-inducing ascents!

Ortovox has relied on wool since 1988. That’s more than 30 years of experience in processing nature’s most functional fiber. From the first to the third layer, Ortovox thinks holistically and does not produce any item of clothing without sheep’s fiber. Ortovox’s expertise lies in the intelligent combination of the natural material with other innovative materials. With the comfort system created in this way, Ortovox enables unique functionality and comfort properties for all mountain adventures. Ortovox discovered merino wool for itself and all mountaineers in 1995. They use wool from the natural paradise of Tasmania. For several years, Ortovox has been using wool from the Swiss Alps, which is collected directly on site, for its unique Swisswool products. Here and everywhere in the world, Ortovox works exclusively with partners who share their ethical values ​​and social requirements.
