Dynamo Waterproof Pants Montane Outlet

Montane’s Dynamo Pants are a lightweight overtrouser that provide great protection from bad weather. They’re great value, made from quality Pertex Shield fabric that is more hard-wearing than some “superlight” overtrousers out there.

Montane says: 

The Dynamo Pants features lightweight, versatile PERTEX® SHIELD fabric which offers an excellent balance of weather protection, breathability and durability for all season walking.

Our Verdict

Montane’s Dynamo Pants are a bit of a lightweight workhorse, fully waterproof and constructed from a heavier fabric than some of the ultralight overtrousers available, making them the more durable choice.

Despite being this light, Montane haven’t skimped on the feature set. There’s an elasticated waist with cinch cord adjustment, press studs on the ankle and velcro adjustments on the calf to reduce volume and 3/4 side zips which allows you to get them on and off over your boots easier when your in a hurry.

No pockets, gaps, openings of fly – just the features you really need.
