The RAB Incline AS Pants are softshell trousers designed for men who want reliable protection and freedom of movement on the trail. They’re aimed at anyone tackling damp, windy conditions while hiking, scrambling or climbing, offering a balance of weather resistance and stretch.
Made from 100% polyamide with a two-layer Matrix construction, these pants resist light showers and dry quickly when you’ve worked up a sweat. The regular fit allows room for layers or a climbing harness without feeling restrictive, and the PFC-free durable water-repellent finish sheds drizzle without relying on harmful chemicals. A small amount of recycled content (2%) shows a nod to reducing environmental impact.
The two-layer Matrix system bonds a hard-wearing face fabric to a protective membrane, so you get wind resistance and breathability in one. The DWR (durable water-repellent) coating makes water bead up and roll off the surface, helping the fabric stay light and quick to dry. Because it’s PFC-free, the finish avoids perfluorinated compounds often used in conventional treatments.
