Inside The Wasatch Ripstop

Stretch Ripstop Fabric

Built to move and built to last, the Wasatch Ripstop blend solves the trade-off between tough and comfortable so these bottoms keep up without slowing you down.

Water-Resistant Finish

The DWR finish sheds moisture so the fabric stays dry when conditions shift. It's also PFC-free, meaning the protection comes without the harmful chemicals typically found in older water-resistant treatments.

Built Responsibly

Every Wasatch Ripstop style uses 61% recycled nylon and carries OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification, independently tested against more than 100 harmful substances so the gear is as safe to wear as it is to make.

Pull-On Waistband

No buckles, no buttons. The elastic waist with an internal drawcord slips on fast and adjusts to you, so the fit is comfortable from your first step to the last.
