Why We Like The Recon Stretch Ski Pant
Whether we're earning our turns or lapping lifts, the Recon Stretch Ski Pant from Black Diamond keeps us moving freely in dry comfort. Its BD.dry waterproof membrane offers protection on stormy days while also providing breathability when we're on long tours in the backcountry.
We appreciate that the four-way stretch fabric keeps you moving on the skin track and mobile through tree runs. An updated, low profile PIEPS Pocket stows your avy gear when you venture out of bounds, and thigh pockets store your daily necessities. Offset side venting dumps heat when you're boot-packing and lapping turns in deep powder, while the high-mounted snow gaiter keeps out those fresh flakes for day-long comfort in the snow.

Not a Resort Pant
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Athletic build with larger thighs. And the fit is great, aside from the length. Just giving folks a heads up that plan staying on the front side. Wore these for two seasons resort skiing. These are great shells, but a little too breathable and froze my butt off on the chair, it's a softshell material and feel. Tried several layering options - capilene, puffer pants, wool ($$$) was still uncomfortably cold on days 20 degrees or below, with a little wind, brrrr. That said these are great for touring and/or spring skiing on the front side, great finish and venting as other reviewers note, pockets and design is well thought out. Fit is pretty long (32.5" inseam) great if your over 6ft tall. Writing this because it's marketed as a inbound pant and bc pant. Plan on using skins or touring - great pant. Plan on doing laps on a chair - not so great, unless it's late spring.
