Volcom L GORE-TEX PANT - 2027

The Volcom L GORE-TEX Pant has been a staple for a reason. It’s a no-BS snowboard pant built for riders who want legit weather protection without going to a super technical-looking fit. The relaxed cut gives you plenty of room to move and layer without feeling ridiculously baggy, and the 2-layer GORE-TEX construction is ready for everything from Vail storm days to wet spring laps.

Volcom’s Zip Tech® jacket-to-pant interface is one of our favorite features. Pair these with a compatible Volcom jacket and you can zip the two together to help keep snow from getting up your back when it gets deep—or when you end up on your ass.

For 2027, the L GORE-TEX uses recycled 2-layer nylon with PFAS-free technology, backed up by fully taped seams and YKK® AquaGuard® water-repellent zippers. Mesh-lined leg vents let you dump heat when you're riding hard, while the reinforced rise and back hem are there for the abuse snowboard pants actually take.

This is an easy pant for us to recommend if you want one shell you can ride basically all season.
