Product Information

Full details

The Rab Torque Mountain Pants are high-performance softshell trousers designed for adult male hikers, climbers, and mountaineers who require durable yet flexible gear. They are an excellent choice for everything from technical scrambles to multi-day alpine treks, offering superior stretch and quick-drying properties that keep you moving comfortably in rugged terrain. One caveat to keep in mind is that while they are highly protective and hardwearing, they are primarily designed for alpine activity and may feel more specialized than casual everyday trousers.

FAQs

Are these pants waterproof?

They are made from Matrix softshell fabric, which is wind and water-resistant, making them ideal for light showers and breathable protection, but they are not fully waterproof.

Can I wear these for climbing?

Yes, the articulated knees, gusseted crotch, and high-stretch fabric are specifically designed for the demands of rock climbing and scrambling.

How do I wash them?

Machine wash with a mild detergent on a gentle cycle. Do not use fabric softeners, and air dry them for the best results.

Are they suitable for winter use?

They are best for three-season use. For extreme winter conditions, you may need a thermal base layer underneath or a more specialized heavy-duty winter shell.

What does the gusset at the hem do?

The zip gusset at the hem allows you to expand the width of the leg opening to fit over larger mountaineering boots.

Troubleshooting

The pant leg feels too tight around the boot.

Unzip the gusset panel at the hem to increase the width and provide more room for your boot cuff.

The pants feel loose around the waist.

Use the low-profile belt loops to add a belt, or ensure the snap closure is correctly fastened to engage the part-elasticated band.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional freedom of movement due to stretch fabric and articulation
  • Highly durable and hardwearing for rocky or rugged terrain
  • Quick-drying material is ideal for variable mountain weather
  • Adaptable leg cuffs accommodate diverse footwear

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme deep-winter or waterproof conditions
  • May feel too technical for casual urban use
  • Specific waist sizing requires accurate measurement before purchase

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Rab Torque Mountain Pants, use the belt loops or the internal elasticated waist to establish a secure, comfortable fit before heading out. Compatibility is maximized by the zippered leg gussets, which should be adjusted to suit the diameter of your footwear's ankle cuff. When it comes to care, machine wash the pants in cold water using a technical gear cleaner or mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical properties of the softshell material. Always hang-dry your pants in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to maintain the fabric's integrity and shape.
