The North Face DIABLO REG STR Hiking Pants

Designed for women who hike in the mountains under demanding winter conditions, The North Face DIABLO REG STR pants are ideal for those who tackle high-altitude approaches, ridge climbs, or ski touring excursions. Their stretchy softshell fabric combines freedom of movement with protection from the elements, while their tapered cut toward the ankle provides a snug fit without restricting technical movements.

A stretchy softshell fabric designed for winter hiking

The DIABLO REG STR pants are made from a fabric composed of 93% polyester and 7% spandex, a combination that ensures true stretch in all directions. In the field, this translates to appreciable ease of movement during technical sections: navigating rocks, steep climbs, or the wide, sweeping movements typical of ski touring. The softshell fabric also retains a certain flexibility even in sub-zero temperatures, making it particularly well-suited for the winter collection.

WindWall™ technology and a water-repellent finish to handle changing conditions

To cope with variable weather conditions at high altitudes, the pants feature WindWall™ technology, a windproof treatment that reduces the penetration of cold air without adding bulk to the fabric. Complementing this protection, a durable, non-PFC DWR water-repellent finish allows water to bead up and run off the surface, limiting fabric saturation during light showers or when walking through snow. This finish, free of perfluorinated compounds, meets a growing environmental standard in the manufacture of outdoor gear.

A Cut Designed for Efficiency in Motion on The North Face DIABLO REG STR Pants

The “Regular Tapered” fit features a standard waistline at the front and back, with a relaxed fit at the thighs that gradually tapers toward the ankle. This tapered silhouette eliminates unnecessary bulk while maintaining comfort when sitting or bending. The adjustable bottom hem allows you to customize the length to fit your footwear or current conditions. For practicality, two zippered hand pockets and one zippered back pocket keep your personal belongings secure during mountain outings.
