Jack Wolfskin Activate XT Pant Mens

ACTIVATE XT PANTS MEN Our ACTIVATE product line epitomises the soft shell concept in its purest form: basic weather protection, extremely good breathability and superb freedom of movement.

The ACTIVATE XT PANTS are the latest addition to the ACTIVATE family. Designed specifically for demanding trekking and mountain sports wear, the pants have a body-hugging ‘active fit’ and the critical wear zones on the inside of the calves are additionally reinforced with extremely tough CORDURA 500D to help guard against crampon bite and mechanical abrasion. Equipped with six useful pockets for essential small items.

Adjustable Hem The adjustable hook & loop hem on the trouser legs of our pants prevents wind or snow from getting in. It also stops you from getting snagged or tangled.

Elastic Waistband
EGULAR WAIST, the waist band sits just below the navel at the front and is slightly raised at the back. This design offers protection and freedom of movement for classic outdoor activities such as general mountaineering, trekking, hiking and travel.

The ACTIVE FIT is a body-hugging, narrow leg cut that is generally used with stretch fabrics. It was developed for mountain sports requiring plenty of freedom of movement, where excess fabric might prove a hindrance.

Articulated Knees

Articulated Knees A detail on our trekking and weather protection trousers. The knee section is anatomically tailored to conform to the natural biomechanics of the leg, significantly improving freedom of movement.

A highly abrasion-resistant fabric made from strong polyamide fibres with a textured surface. We use it to reinforce areas subject to particular wear and tear, such as the shoulders, elbows or knees.

There are different strengths (Denier) of material, according to the area of use. We use CORDURA 300, 400 and 500. The higher the strength, the stronger the fabric.

CORDURA® is a trademark of the specialist American performance fibres manufacturer, INVISTA.

Light weight, low pack volume, bi-stretch freedom of movement and maximum breathability – the perfect spring/summer/autumn soft shell material.

Its tight weave provides good wind and weather protection (D.W.R. = Durable Water Repellent), while burls on the inside made of textured nylon provide some thermal retention and allow air circulation between fabric and skin.
