Lightweight, water-resistant insulating shorts with swisswool for ski tours

The swisswool plz boè shorts for men are ideal for the discerning ski tourer who knows that less is more: less weight, less volume but more performance.

The robust pertex® quantum outer layer makes our lightweight insulating shorts extremely windproof and abrasion resistant, with the quilted outer fabric providing a stylish pixel look. A 60 g/m2 swisswool® lining not only provides excellent insulation against the cold, the fibers also have a moisture-regulating function, absorbing up to 35% of their own weight in moisture. Thanks to its athletic cut and the use of elastic Merino naturetec light in the sides, our swisswool plz boè shorts for men adapts to your every move, even in the most demanding terrain. The adjustable waistband provides a perfect fit and makes them easy to put on or take off in any situation.

The swisswool plz boè shorts for men are therefore the ideal companions for demanding tours, when low weight and maximum performance are required.
