How To Layer Shell Pants
Shell pants provide weather protection without insulation, designed to pair with adjustable layers underneath.
Warmth Without Bulk
Shell pants are designed as the ultimate adaptable outer layer, working in tandem with the base layers beneath to control warmth and comfort.
Begin with a thermal base layer for insulation and moisture management.
On colder days, add a mid-weight leg layer or fleece tight for additional warmth.
Finish with your shell pants to protect against snow, wind, and wet conditions.
This modular system is ideal for skiers who experience fluctuating temperatures, offering complete flexibility without unnecessary bulk.
Flexible Warmth Control
Technical skiing demands gear built for the elements. Opt for high-breathability shells, waterproof membranes (20K–30K+), sealed seams, and fabrics designed to move with you. Prioritise articulated sleeves, snow skirts, reinforced hems, and ventilation zips — the features that keep you dry, protected, and agile when conditions shift fast. Pair with stretch pants or insulated softshells for comfort and range of motion.
