Designed for the discerning freeride enthusiast, the Millet COSMIC GTX 3L Ski Pants prioritize high-performance protection for off-piste skiing. Engineered to tackle challenging winter conditions, they combine a 3-layer GORE-TEX membrane with recycled polyester fabric. These ski pants offer a waterproof rating of 28,000 mm and breathability optimized for intense activity, with enhanced freedom of movement thanks to pre-shaped knees. They are ideal for skiers seeking technical gear focused on protection, durability, and functionality in the mountains.

3-layer GORE-TEX protection for demanding freeride

The Millet COSMIC GTX 3L ski pants are described as high-protection men’s ski pants, specifically developed for freeriding, with a design focused on weather management. Their 3-layer GORE-TEX membrane provides a waterproof rating of 28,000 mm, helping to keep legs dry during heavy snowfall or in deep snow. The advertised breathability of RET < 13 m².Pa/W supports extended efforts off-piste by limiting internal moisture buildup. The PFC-free durable water-repellent ( DWR ) treatment enhances protection against moisture while adhering to a fluorocarbon-free approach. The inclusion of the latest-generation GORE-TEX ePE technology offers a cutting-edge technical material designed to provide a balance between protection, breathability, and durability.

Comfortable fit and ventilation for mountain activities

To accommodate the skier’s full range of motion during freeriding, these ski pants are made from 100% recycled polyester, a fabric designed for durability and long-lasting performance. The pre-shaped knees accommodate repeated bending and shifts in weight, providing extra comfort during descents as well as on approach hikes. The adjustable waist with a hook-and-loop strap allows for a precise fit to the body’s shape, with removable suspenders that offer the option of additional support or greater freedom depending on needs. Belt loops round out these adjustment options, helping to keep the pants secure during intense days on the slopes. For ascents or milder conditions, large zippered vents on the sides help effectively regulate heat by allowing hot air to escape during exertion.

Field-tested features for off-piste skiing

For freeride use, the Millet COSMIC GTX 3L ski pants feature several details designed for deep snow and varied terrain. The integrated snow gaiters with anti-slip strips help prevent snow from entering ski boots, even during powder runs or frequent boot removal. The edge guard reinforces the lower legs in areas exposed to repeated friction and cuts from ski edges, reflecting a focus on durability in this sensitive area. A zippered pocket provides secure storage for a small item to keep within reach, helping to organize your gear without adding extra accessories. Finally, the retro-reflective trim enhances visibility in low-light conditions, a useful feature during late returns or in changing weather conditions.

With its recycled polyester fabric, 3-layer GORE-TEX membrane, and freeride-specific details, the Millet COSMIC GTX 3L Ski Pants are designed as high-protection men’s ski pants for challenging terrain and deep snow.
