Description

Ptarmigan Ultra Down Pants by SKRE at Remlite; ultralight hunting gear NZ for insulation, warmth, and mobility in mid-late season hunts.

The Ptarmigan Ultra Down Pants by SKRE are engineered to deliver uncompromising warmth and packability, making them an essential insulation piece for mid to late-season hunts. At Remlite, we specialise in ultralight gear designed for New Zealand’s demanding backcountry, where maintaining body temperature is critical for safety and performance. These pants are the perfect companion to the Ptarmigan Down Jacket, completing a system built for extreme layering.

Weighing only 1 lb 2 oz (510 g), the Ptarmigan Pants combine lightweight efficiency with premium insulation. They are filled with 5.2 oz of 850+ fill power, water-repellent goose down, ensuring exceptional warmth without excessive bulk. This high-performance insulation provides superior heat retention while remaining compressible enough to pack easily into the included compact stuff sack.

The outer face is constructed from a durable, 2-layer brushed polyester fabric, treated with a DWR finish to resist moisture. Reinforced waterproof knees and seat add durability in rugged environments, keeping you dry when kneeling or sitting on damp ground. Additional features include a Duraflex buckle, adjustable nylon webbing for a secure fit, and a zippered fly for convenience.

Two full-length, two-way YKK side zips allow easy on-and-off access without removing boots, making these pants highly practical during long hunts in changing conditions. Whether glassing from an exposed ridgeline, waiting in alpine snow, or setting camp in cold valleys, the Ptarmigan Ultra Down Pants deliver unmatched warmth and reliability.
