The Swix Delda Women's Light Softshell Pants are versatile, fleece-lined pants for cross-country skiing and other fall and winter activities. A stretchy softshell fabric resists wind and wet snow, and articulated knees keep you moving freely. They're an easy, comfortable layer for frosty trail days at low to moderate effort.

Why we like it:

The deep hidden hand pockets get our vote. A real place to stash a phone or keys is rare in Nordic pants, and these hold them without bouncing.

Features and Functions:

Warmth starts on the inside with a soft fleece lining, while the outer recycled interlock polyester stretches in every direction and stands up to wind and wet snow. An eco-friendly water-repellent finish adds protection from moisture. Ventilation from the knee down keeps lower legs from overheating, and articulated knees with flatlock seams support a smooth stride. Elasticized ankles with zippers fit snugly over boots, and a zip-and-snap closure keeps everything secure.

Fit and Sizing:

Cut loose and comfortable, with four-way stretch so the relaxed shape never feels baggy. A wide elastic waistband with drawstrings dials in the waist.

Bottom Line:

A comfortable, weather-ready pant for women who ski, run or hike through the cold months at their own pace.
