What are the Torque Mountain Shorts?
They're highly versatile and practical shorts, ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities in warmer climates. Durable, breathable and stretchy, they offer a great range of movement and boast plenty of pockets to keep all your trail essentials close to hand.
What are they made from?
The Torque Mountain Shorts use Matrix™ Fabric throughout, a specialised line of softshell fabric selected by Rab for its unique performance qualities. Matrix™ double-weave is a soft stretch fabric that blends polyamide and elastane to create an air-permeable fabric that breathes exceptionally well, keeping you cool while working hard. It's also wind-resistant and offers UPF protection to shield you from sun exposure, protecting you from the elements without hindering your range of movement. The shorts are lined with smooth recycled polyester fabric for enhanced moisture-wicking capabilities.
The shorts are finished with a fluorocarbon-free, durable water repellent (DWR). This water-repellent coating offers light protection against rain showers. However, it doesn't mean the material is fully waterproof. Using a fluorocarbon-free treatment is much more environmentally responsible than regular treatments because they don't use chemicals harmful to the environment.
What are their features?
The Torque Mountain Shorts have a part elasticated waist with a double snap closure and YKK® zipped fly. The bonded self-fabric belt loops are low profile, so they don't dig in as you move or get in the way of your climbing harness.
For storage, there are two pockets, one zipped hidden rear pocket and a zipped thigh pocket, perfect for tucking away small essentials like a mobile phone, GPS, energy gels or snack bars.
