Description & Features
The Karbon Adult Nitrogen Side Zip Ski Pant is an insulated stretch pant built for ski racers, coaches, and performance skiers who need weather protection with easy on-and-off functionality. Full side zips let you remove the pant with ski boots on, while Quadra Stretch fabric and articulated knees provide the mobility needed for skiing, course work, and race-day movement.
Karbonite 20,000 waterproof protection, fully sealed seams, and integrated snow cuffs help keep winter weather out, while 60 gsm Thermolite Active insulation provides lightweight warmth. Mesh-lined side ventilation helps manage excess heat, and removable high-back suspenders, an adjustable waistband, reinforced construction, and double-fabric scuff guards make the Karbon Adult Nitrogen Side Zip Ski Pant well suited to demanding days on the mountain.

Construction & Technology
Karbonite 20,000 Waterproof Protection
Karbonite 20,000 provides high-level waterproof protection for demanding alpine conditions. Combined with fully sealed seams, integrated snow cuffs, and the Nitrogen's technical outer construction, it helps keep racers and skiers protected from snow and moisture throughout long days on the mountain.
Quadra Stretch Fabric
Quadra Stretch construction allows the pant to move naturally with the skier rather than restricting an athletic stance. Combined with articulated knees and a stretch fit, the flexible fabric supports mobility through skiing, course inspection, training, and work around the race venue.
Thermolite Active Insulation
Thermolite Active insulation provides lightweight thermal protection while maintaining the mobility required for active skiing. The Nitrogen uses 60 gsm insulation to balance warmth and low bulk, making it practical for layering over race suits and other performance apparel.
Full Side-Zip Race Construction
Full-length side zippers make the Nitrogen especially useful for alpine racers by letting you put the pants on or take them off without removing your ski boots. Racers can wear the insulated pants over a race suit while waiting, inspecting, or riding lifts, then remove them efficiently before a run.
Mesh-Lined Side Ventilation
Side-seam zip vents use mesh lining to increase airflow when you need extra cooling. This allows racers, coaches, and active skiers to regulate heat during course work, training, and changing weather conditions without removing the pants.
Race-Ready Lower-Leg Protection
Double-fabric scuff guards reinforce areas exposed to repeated contact with ski boots and edges, while integrated snow cuffs use snap closures and gripper elastic to create a secure interface around the boot. Ankle zip openings provide additional access and adjustment at the lower leg.
