Equator Pants
The lightest technical pants we’ve ever built.
- Lightweight pants weighing 350 grams
- Made with silk-like cotton from the Nile Delta
- Advanced ventilation system with 332 laser cut vents
Home to some of the hottest and most humid places on the planet, the equator carves through dense tropical jungles, warm seas, and crowded cities. Instead of seasons or temperature changes you’re more likely to be hit by a wall of heat, sun, rain and humidity. But as global temperatures rise and climate zones shift, designing clothing for the equator is like designing for our future.
So the Equator Pants are built to keep you comfortable in all 40,000km of one of the most extreme environments we currently inhabit. The pants start with one of the lightest and softest fabrics on the planet – a rare, silk-like cotton from the Nile Delta – which we combine with ultrafine nylon and elastane for durability and stretch.
Designed to keep you comfortable in even the most extreme heat, they’re highly breathable, UV resistant, and come with an advanced ventilation system built with 332 laser-cut vents and super soft Italian mesh.
Technical Details

We start with the softest cotton from the Nile Delta
Life at the equator offers us a glimpse of our future – a world of non-stop sun, heat, humidity and rainstorms. So we’ve built the Equator Pants to equip you for it. To build pants that can work in all 40,000km of the equator we start with a world-class base material – a rare cotton called Karnak Menoufi. One of the lightest, softest fabrics on the planet, Karnak Menoufi is a silk-like cotton that’s only found in the Nile Delta, and only grows in the years when the rain, soil and wind conditions are perfect. And it’s exactly the same material we use to build our Equator Shirt.


Lightweight and breathable
As global temperatures rise and climate zones shift, clothes have to respond. That’s why the Equator Pants are built to handle extreme heat. The material is highly breathable, which means sweat can escape fast. They’re also super lightweight at 350 grams, which makes them easy to wear or pack on any adventure.

Fast drying from rain and humidity
Rainstorms and humidity are going to soak you one way or another at the equator, so the key is about drying really fast, rather than trying to avoid getting wet. The fabric is ultra lightweight and elastic so it dries quickly, making the pants as at home in a rainforest as they are in a city. And the extra airflow from the ventilation will help your skin dry faster at the same time as the pants.




Size + Fit
The Equator Pants are designed with a regular fit. If you’re on the borderline between two waist sizes, we recommend going for the smaller size.
