Altura Dynamic Pant Fabric
The Altura Dynamic Pant uses a 4 way stretch Nylon that is optimal for comfort. This 175 g/m² double-weave fabric (93% nylon, 7% spandex) offers durability, mobility, and all-day comfort with just the right amount of structure. It's soft-on-skin feel and ultralight weight led many of our testers to start calling the Altura their "tactical performance pajamas" while out on the trail.
These pants are lighter, more breathable, & give you pajama-level comfort.
One factor of the comfort levels found in the Altura Dynamic Pant is the built-in mobility features. These pants were designed to give you unrestricted range of motion for rugged conditions.
Both the gusseted crotch and articulated knees improve mobility in these pants, and the trim fit is just roomy enough, without excess.
Another factor of comfort is breathability.
The Altura Dynamic Pant is equipped with large but low profile zipper vents to help dump heat during strenuous activities & maintain comfortable temperatures on the trail.
The Altura Dynamic Pant is highly specialized for backcountry use, with a high emphasis on comfort & mobility. You can go more places more easily without sacrificing comfort or protection.

"They honestly feel like wearing pajamas that are durable."
"I nicknamed these pants my tactical pajamas, they’re that comfortable. Mobility was fantastic, loved the light soft fabric."
"Mobility, cut and sizing was dead on. I liked the slight taper and elastic band around the bottom of the pant as it allowed the pants to stay secured around your boot and not ride up. I put on close to 50 miles of hiking with these pants and found zero restriction in mobility."
"The fit and comfort of the pants is excellent. They have plenty of stretch but don't feel baggy. The cut is just right for my build."
"Side zips were amazing, the mesh panel preventing leaves and debris from getting into the pants was phenomenal. Built in belt I LOVE."
"All of the features were perfect IMO. I am a huge fan of the hip vents for breathability. The pockets were good for a simplistic approach, too."
