SYSTEM LAYER GUIDE
L4 - WIND PROTECTION
Ultralightweight, Highly Flexible, Treated for Comfort, Designed for Layering
Performance Fit
Low-profile design with an elastic waistband and tapered cuffs improves mobility and ease of layering.
Ultrapackable
Ultralightweight softshell and a streamlined fit combine to ensure easy stowing when not in use.
Double-Treated Fabric
Clear outer shell coating softens hand feel, and a DWR finish provides weather-resistant protection.
Multi-Season Versatility
The Men’s Avid Ultralight K4 Pant is a streamlined alternative to the Ventum Ultralight K4 Pant, designed for active, multi-season use and with increased ease of layering under additional protection. The trim, tapered profile and ultralightweight fabric ensure easy mobility and layering, and wind-resistant protection wards off chilling gusts while retaining warmth generated from activity.
Built for Versatility
Ultralightweight, quick-drying fabric with 4-way stretch combines with articulated knees to provide versatile performance as both a layer and a standalone jogger. A dry clear coating offers a softer hand feel, and a hidden passport pocket and key clip add convenience to everyday use and adventuring alike.
The Avid Ultralight K4 Pant is crafted with bluesign®-certified textiles—verified for ecological safety at every step of manufacturing—and is certified STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® as free from harmful levels of more than 100 substances.
Bulk-Free Profile
Low-profile construction with tapered cuffs and an elastic waistband delivers a trim fit, allowing comfortable layering beneath additional protection without bulk or bunching up. Combined with air-sealing softshell performance, the Avid is an ideal midlayer for extreme cold environments.
Air-Sealing Softshell
The wind-resistant softshell seals out chilling gusts while retaining warmth built up from active use, ideal for active use in cold to temperate weather or as a midlayer in extreme cold environments. A durable water-repellent (DWR) finish helps light precipitation bead up and roll off.
