The North Face Summit Chamlang Softshell Pants Women's TNF Black Size L

WindWall™ technology cuts wind chill by up to 90% while maintaining breathability—a fortress against alpine gusts without sacrificing comfort during high-output climbs. These softshell pants are built for mountaineering and alpine climbing, part of The North Face's Summit Series, engineered for performance in demanding conditions.

Overview

The main fabric is a 93% recycled nylon and 7% elastane double weave, offering durability and stretch. A non-PFC durable water-repellent (DWR) finish sheds light precipitation, while articulated knees and a gusseted inseam allow unrestricted movement on technical terrain. An integrated belt with tension-lock buckle ensures a secure fit, and two secure-zip thigh pockets keep essentials accessible. Snap closures at the cuffs with internal gaiters seal out snow and debris, and kickpatches reinforce high-wear areas.
