GORE-TEX Dispatch Shell Pant - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This is the Dispatch Bib for people who run a separate base layer system and don't want the top. Everything that made the bib a favorite is here: fully taped GORE-TEX seams, 500D reinforcement at the knees and kick panels, cross-venting for the skin track, BOA compatible gaiters. The thigh cargo pocket is genuinely useful in the backcountry and the RECCO tech is the kind of thing you hope you never need but are glad is there. For high-output days in serious terrain, this is the pant I'd reach for."

Skin tracks have a way of exposing every weak point in your kit. The moment you start generating heat, you need venting that actually works. The moment the weather turns, you need waterproofing that doesn't quit. The 686 GORE-TEX Dispatch Shell Pant was designed in Japan by guides who know both sides of that equation and tested through 200-plus day seasons by Mammoth Unbound Park Staff who have no patience for gear that gives out early.

The 2-layer GORE-TEX shell is built from 100% recycled bluesign approved nylon with fully taped seams throughout. Cross-venting inner leg vents open up on the climb and close down on the descent. Triple 500D reinforcement at the knees, kick panels, and hem facing means the areas that take the most abuse are ready for it. The BOA compatible gaiter system keeps your boot interface sealed without stopping to fiddle, and RECCO technology adds a layer of searchability in avalanche terrain. Thigh cargo pockets, a key clip, and the Pant Jacket Connect system round out a pant built to be the last one you need to buy for a long time.
