Black Diamond BDVs

Fantastic pants. Made of Schoeller Dynamic fabric. Nice simple design. No frills. On me they had a nice loose fit in the seat/thighs (not too baggy...) but they taper down pretty tight at the ankles. The web belt works great to keep them up but is thin enough that it doesn't interfere with climbing harnesses or pack belts. Great design. The fabric stretches, it sheds light rain, it breathes. It's also pretty darn tough. The fabric is not great for colder weather. It's really lightweight. On cold days in the mountains, they offer very little in the way of insulation and the wind comes through a bit. If you're looking for full-on winter pants, look for something made of Schoeller Dryskin Extreme.
