It all starts with the right base. Same for base layers in ski touring or freeriding. The pieces that come first on and last off can make or break your day in terms of warmth, ventilation or fit on long days out in the mountains. The Ortovox Thermovent line perfectly combines lightness and warmth through innovative production techniques and the selection of proven raw materials. The Merino Thermovent Shortpants are characterized by their ideal weight-to-insulation ratio and smart 3D body mapping. With their breathable and stretchy mesh structure on the thighs, this super lightweight base layer guarantees ideal ventilation and moisture management while still providing excellent heat retention. A special knit structure in the knee area also ensures warm joints without any bulk to allow a natural range of movement. So thanks to 3D body mapping, the different areas of these pants have been smartly tailored to the needs of the different areas of the body they cover. More warmth where it is needed but also enough sufficient ventilation on the parts of the legs that need more cooling.
The flat knitting technique used to produce the pants creates no cutting waste in production, thus making the product more sustainable, as only as much is knitted as used or needed. Consisting of 95 percent merino wool, the Thermovent Shortpants feature a very high share in raw material, making it more eco-friendly. With its proven characteristics, merino keeps you warm or cool, depending on the circumstances, but in any case helps to prevent bad odors, even on longer tours or when worn over multiple days. The pants are super soft and comfortable to wear, from the elastic waistband to their stretchy seams. They are also the perfect length to use in combination with ski socks, creating less bulk while still not riding up during movement. The Ortovox Thermovent Shortpants come in a neutral dark grey blend and sizes XS to XL for women and S to XXL for men.
