From deep powder days to spring slush sessions, the Dispatch pants provide a masterful blend of technical protection and rider-centric design, ensuring you stay dry, comfortable, and focused on your line from the first chair to the last run.

At the heart of the Dispatch pants is the legendary GORE-TEX membrane, offering unparalleled waterproof and windproof protection that is "Guaranteed to Keep You Dry™". Coupled with fully taped GORE-TEX seams, every potential entry point for moisture is sealed shut, creating an impenetrable barrier against snow, sleet, and wind. This advanced shell design allows you to layer according to the temperature, making it a versatile and indispensable choice for the entire season. Whether you´re facing biting winds on the lift or unexpected downpours, your lower half remains completely shielded and comfortable.

Built to withstand the rigors of daily riding and backcountry missions, the Dispatch pants feature rugged 500D reinforced panels on the knees and inner kick panels. This workwear-inspired durability means you can ride hard, explore new terrain, and handle your gear without hesitation. Functionality is paramount, with a smart 5-pocket design including waterproof front hand pocket zippers and a spacious thigh cargo pocket to secure all your essentials. The integrated Pant Jacket Connect™ System creates a seamless barrier against snow on powder days, while thoughtful details like the lift ticket eyelet and internal key clip add everyday convenience.

Experience unrestricted movement and personalized comfort on every turn. The articulated fit moves with your body, while the Air-Flo™ inner leg vents provide rapid temperature regulation when you start to heat up. The boot integration is flawless, featuring a BOA® Compatible Boot System within the gaiter, a boot gusset with snap closure, and a lace hook to ensure a perfect, snow-free seal. Fine-tune your fit on the fly with the external waist adjustment system for all-day comfort without pressure points.
