Thanks Colin. They aren't bringing out pants in the same fabric as the 180 are they?

Pants in general seem to lag behind the fabric curve compared to jackets. The ancient Golite Reed is I think still the lightest WB pant by far. Maybe manufacturers fear the effect of the extra wear and tear that pants get. But Montane would be no stranger to that with its Featherlites in the wind pants category.
