What is the differences between the Beta AR pant and the Beta LT pant? They seem to be described similarly and it's not apparent in the pictures. I know that "LT" means lightweight, but I am curious what they did to make them lighter.

ar (all around) uses gore tex pro shell, lt (light) uses gore tex paclite, the lt also uses a lighter face fabric and does not have the keprotec instep patch or internal gaiter

The main difference is the weight of the face fabric. The LT uses a super-fine filament fabric that saves weight but still maintains good durability, although not quite as much as the thicker Beta AR fabric.

Lt does not have pockets or reinforced knees. The AR has Powder cuffs with gripper elastic and lace hook and Keprotec™ instep patchs. Thats about it
