GORE-TEX® Protection, Core 686 Function

• PFAS-Free DWR: A C0 PFAS-free durable water-repellent finish helps water bead off the outer fabric.
• Air-Flo™ Inner-Leg Vents: Zippered vents help release heat and moisture during active laps, hikes, and warmer riding days.
• Reinforced Durability: 500D reinforced inner kick panels and 500D bottom-hem inner facing add protection in high-wear zones.
• Clean 4-Pocket Storage: Front hand zippered pockets, a side seam pocket, inner key clip, and lift-ticket eyelet keep essentials secure without overcomplicating the design.
