W’s Work Hard Pants - True Black

All-natural, fully featured outdoor pants for 4-season use. Warm, robust and extremely strong fabric made in Italy with 100% recycled wool.

What makes them special?
These 100% recycled wool pants are really something out of the ordinary. The Italian made, pure wool fabric is warm, breathable and adapts to your body like only an all-natural fabric can do. “Developed to transcend fashion trends, to withstand the passing of time, and to become more beautiful with a repeated use”, as the fabric supplier elegantly puts it. Work Hard Pants is a garment designed in harmony with nature crafted for a long life among forests, rapids and peaks.

How do they work?
The fabric is made with 100% MWool®, the next generation of recycled wool by Manteco. This circular raw material is obtained by mechanically regenerating and repurposing pre- and post-consumer garments and scraps. All of this in a 0-mile, transparent supply chain. Compared to a generic virgin wool fiber, this fiber has 65,5% less water consumption, 65,6% less CO2 emissions and 65,6% less total energy use. Instead of dyeing the fabrics, a blend of different recycled wool fibers is used to achieve a range of beautiful colors. The fabric is also extremely strong, having passed through a unique set of durability and quality tests and this structure and strength makes it ideal for hard use in the great outdoors.

This extraordinary fabric comes in a robust design with all the features you can expect from a pair of performance outdoor pants: Adjustable waist with integrated belt, double hand pockets, zippered side pockets, reinforced knees with knee bar sockets and volume adjusters at the leg endings.

When should I use them?
Designed for climbing, hiking and an active everyday life, these technical outdoor pants can accompany you all four seasons of the year. They thrive when the temperatures drop low, on a crispy autumn hike or early spring day at the crag.
