Patagonia Alpine Guide Softshell Pant - Men's

Item #PAT1292 | 16 in Stock

How are these pants for cold weather heavy aerobic activities?...

By Ranked #1468 - Men's Pants January 16, 2009

How are these pants for cold weather heavy aerobic activities? Say peakbagging in snowshoes at 0 to 10 degrees F? I hate overheating and am on a quest for the perfect pair of winter pants. I've got uninsulated TNF Freedom pants but find them too hot most of the time when I'm on the move. Do these pants breath well and make temp regulation easy without stripping or adding layers?

I think you'd be very happy with these pants in the conditions you mentioned. I wear mine in a lot of different conditions and they breathe really well while still protecting from the wind and wet.
