Despite being the pants of choice for Tyler Chorlton, the Horsefeathers Korbu snowboard pants are, thankfully, not as baggy as the insanely oversized sweatpants the man used to don between shreds. Naturally there’s a bit more tech on display here, too…
“The Korbu pants are from the Tyler-designed ‘Addicted To Powder’ series, so you can bet they’ve been put through the ringer in the backcountry during the R&D stage”
The Horsefeathers Korbu snowboard pants are from the Tyler-designed ‘Addicted To Powder’ series, so you can bet they’ve been put through the ringer in the backcountry during the R&D stage. One feature that should please the pow-lovers is the waist gaiter, which forms an impenetrable seal at the top of the pants. If that’s not your thing, however, it’s easily removable.
Those serious about venturing further afield shouldn’t settle for less than fully taped seams, like the ones you’ll find here. They’re also breathable enough for long tours or backcountry kicker sessions, when the sweat built up from hiking needs to escape pronto in order to keep you comfortable.
