From maker's figures 3/10How much they add to your pack. 3: Below average. Fine for some trips, not others.

Estimate from maker's specs
In short
Good for
- Winter hiking and mountaineering in sleet, showers and storms
- Steep ice and rock, with Spectra ankle patches against sharp crampons
- Walkers who want an 80D GORE-TEX Pro hardshell with full-length zips and belt loops
Strengths
- 80D 3-layer GORE-TEX Pro with a fluorocarbon-free ePE membrane, 28,000 mm hydrostatic head (Rab)
- Full-length two-way side zips: pull on over layers or bulky footwear
- Spectra ripstop kicker patches at the ankle against sharp crampons
- Hook-and-loop waist adjustment, belt loops and brace attachment points
- Snap hem adjustment, eyelet boot attachments and two hand pockets
Weaknesses
- 443 g in size M, against 296 g for Rab's Namche Hike GORE-TEX pants
- Rab pitches it at winter hikers and mountaineers, with 80D fabric at 131 gsm
- Fly zip, belt loops, brace points and snap hem: more fastenings than the part-elasticated waist on Rab's lighter pants
