16 miles into a headwind atop your snowshoes?  It sounds miserable to some, but a seasoned snowtrekker digs a long haul. Good wool or fleece pants can keep those tired legs warm, but you still need protection from driving winds and snow. Our roomy Tundra Trousers are up to the task. We cut 'em large and long, then pre-wash them to snug up the fibers. They're nearly impervious to wind. The fibers are tight enough to slide through the brush. Best of all, they're invisible to perspiration, so your quads, butt,  and calves won't get swampy.

Like their heavier cousins, the Permafrost Pants, these have zippered hip pockets and deep fly front. The feathery textile snugs down at the hems to cover your boots, but they're light enough to stuff inside them too.

Fabric: 7 ounce Organic Cotton Canvas Color: Natural.  Sizes: SM, MD, LG, XL, XXL. Made in Duluth, MN from imported fabric.

** A word about fit. Our canvas pants s are not fashionable. They are not flattering. They are not fitted. They're walking tents with room for air to circulate around your insulation so it can work at maximum efficiency.
