As the best performing laminate in the eVent lineup, alpineST delivers the ultimate in long-lasting, waterproof breathability to shield users from extreme conditions. Its durable construction maintains high levels of waterproofness and breathability through dozens of washes, and is ideal for demanding activities, providing the ultimate shield from the elements.

“When we looked to source materials for our Performance 3L Pant, eVent became the only choice that made sense for us,” said Jesse White, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer for WHITESPACE. “Not only does alpineST provide the performance we demand, but like WHITESPACE, eVent is a forward-looking company, making products that help reduce environmental impact by forgoing PFAS chemicals and incorporating recycled materials.” 

Engineered for the harshest conditions, the Performance 3L Pant blends the alpineST laminate with fully taped seams for uncompromising waterproofing and breathability. Articulated construction and 4-way stretch gaiters move naturally with every turn, while the expandable cargo system and thermal media pockets keep essentials close. Finished with a PFC-free DWR and recycled materials, these pants deliver technical protection with a refined, responsible design.
