Rab Women's Torque Mountain Shorts Tempest Blue Size M

Typical hiking shorts sacrifice either mobility or durability, but the Rab Torque Mountain Shorts for women deliver both through their Matrix™ stretch double weave fabric. This 95% polyamide, 5% elastane blend offers exceptional abrasion resistance while allowing unrestricted movement on demanding terrain. The slim, articulated fit with a diamond gusset ensures a full range of motion, and the fluorocarbon-free DWR finish sheds light rain and dirt without harming the environment. With UPF 50+ protection and quick-drying performance, these shorts are ready for rocky scrambles, long treks, and changeable mountain weather.

• Matrix™ stretch double weave nylon (95% polyamide, 5% elastane) for durability and freedom of movement
• Fluorocarbon-free DWR treatment sheds light rain and dirt
• UPF 50+ sun protection for high-altitude exposure
• Articulated design with diamond gusset for unrestricted stride

In daily use

On the trail, the Torque Mountain Shorts feel light and breathable, drying quickly after stream crossings or sweat-inducing climbs. The slim fit sits close without binding, while the 2-way stretch fabric moves with you on high steps and technical terrain. The waistband features a snap button and YKK® zip fly with belt loops, allowing a personalized fit. The zippered thigh pocket is perfectly placed for a phone or energy gel, and the rear zippered pocket keeps valuables secure. Whether you're hiking, trekking, or climbing, these shorts provide the performance and protection needed for all-day comfort.
