Key Features for Every Condition in Utah:
The core of the SMARTY® system is its 2-Layer infiDRY® fabric, typically offering an impressive 20,000mm waterproof rating and 15,000gm2 breathability. This robust combination ensures superior protection from heavy snowfall, slush, and driving winds while allowing significant moisture vapor to escape, keeping you dry and comfortable during high-output activities. For enhanced durability, many recent versions feature Duracore™ fabric, engineered to be exceptionally abrasion-resistant, ideal for the rigors of resort riding or backcountry excursions. All critical seams are fully taped with Bemis® tape, creating an impenetrable barrier against moisture.
The defining feature, however, is the removable SMARTY® 3-in-1 Stretch Poly Fleece Pant Midlayer. This innovative design allows you to wear the pants in three distinct ways:
- Shell + Fleece Liner: For the coldest days at Alta or Snowbird, offering integrated insulation and maximum warmth.
- Shell Only: For moderate temperatures or when you're working hard, providing waterproof protection and breathability without excess bulk.
- Fleece Liner Only: This soft, comfortable fleece jogger can be worn casually around the house, in the lodge, or for quick errands in Millcreek, effectively giving you two pants for the price of one.
The SMARTY® Cargo Pant is designed with a Modern Fit, providing a balance of room for layering and mobility without being overly baggy. It features ample storage with a 12-pocket design (or similar cargo configurations), ensuring you have space for all your essentials. Air-Flo™ mesh-lined inner leg vents offer quick temperature regulation when needed, and the Pant Jacket Connect™ system allows for seamless integration with a compatible 686 jacket for a complete snow-blocking barrier. Additional details like BOA® Compatible Boot System in Gaiter (allowing on-the-fly BOA adjustments), boot gaiters with boot lace hooks, reinforced inner kick panels, and a 500D Horseshoe Hem provide long-term durability and functionality.
