Cirque III Pant - Plus - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve used the Cirque III Pant for everything from spring ski tours to mixed alpine climbs. The softshell fabric sheds wind and light snow, and it’s durable enough for technical routes. I love the adjustability—it fits comfortably with a harness and layers, and the updated fit makes movement super natural."

When the weather’s fickle and our route demands precision, we reach for the Outdoor Research Cirque III Pant. With an updated fit and enhanced mobility, it’s built for the demands of ski mountaineering, mixed climbing, and technical backcountry missions. The softshell construction is wind- and water-resistant, and offers just the right amount of stretch to move with us through high-output efforts and rugged terrain.

Built with a bluesign®-approved nylon/spandex double weave and Kevlar-reinforced scuff guards, the Cirque III Pant is made to hold up to crampons, ski edges, and all-day alpine abuse. Features like boot lace hooks, grommets for instep cords, gusseted ankle zips, and zippered pockets add function, while adjustable tabs at the waist ensure a dialed fit over baselayers or under a harness. This pant doesn’t just keep up—it leads the way on our most technical objectives.
