The Torrentshells do exactly what pared-down rainwear should: they keep you dry through spring showers or boomer thunderstorms. These H2No Performance Standard rain pants are made from 2.5-layer nylon with a waterproof/breathable barrier and a Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish. They feature a simple pull-on style with an elastic drawcord waistband, articulated knees and three zippered pockets (two handwarmers, one back hip). The zippered lower legs have adjustable hook-and-loop cuffs, and the pants stuff into the left handwarmer pocket (with carabiner clip-in loop).
