As the weather turns increasingly unpredictable, the Catalyst Foundry is your best ally for going farther and staying longer in the field. By blending some of our best features into one softshell pant, a formidable tool has been added to your kit for punching late-season tags. Removable knee pads, waterproof layering in the seat and knees, 37.5 fleece lining, and mapped brush chap panels keep you protected and comfortable from sunup to sundown, making these pants a sure bet when the conditions are anything but predictable.

This pant uses a rigid waistband with no stretch. If your waist falls close to or directly between sizes, select the next size up.
