Beloved by generations of MEC members for their do-it-all design, these pants are true classics. Maybe even radder than the originals, the Classic Modern Rad pants are the evolution of vintage trail wear. Updated with a higher waistline at the back, the latest generation of Rad pants offer even more comfort and coverage than our Anniversary Rads. The burly nylon material has been updated with a little added spandex, making the pants easier to move in. And, the new material has a smaller footprint, using recycled nylon, a PFAS-free DWR, and it’s Bluesign approved. Comfier and more sustainable, while still being great for climbing, paddling, hiking, and relaxing around camp, it’s no wonder we keep revisiting the Rad pants.
