Swix UniversalX Women's Cross Country Ski Pant

They look like pants, they work like tights, they’re ideal for Nordic skiing, winter cycling, running, and hitting the snowshoe trail, they’re the Swix Women’s Universal X Training pants! Swix, based in Lillehammer Norway since 1946, is a leader in functional outdoor clothing and Nordic ski equipment and these pants have all the versatility you’d expect from a company that’s been perfecting comfort during aerobic activities in cold weather for 75 years. These are a regular fit with slight tapering in the legs to allow room to move and room for a baselayer if you need one. Trim and articulated knees with stretch sections on back of legs, thighs and knees give you unrestricted mobility and breathability where you need it while at the same time these pants move smoothly without fabric flapping around your legs. With a water-resistant finish to shed the flakes and a micromesh lining to improve moisture control these are an ideal pant for those cold autumn morning jogs, or the midwinter lap around the Nordic ski trail. Full length zippers make these easy on/easy off, so easy we don’t hesitate to recommend them as a layering piece over tights. Stash them in your gear bag and if you need a layer with wind and water resistance you can put them on right over your tights. For everything, hiking, biking, running, nordic skiing, to chasing after the dog, an essential for the active woman’s outdoor wardrobe.
