The Rab Torque Light Women’s Pants. 

Rab has merged function and fit with the Torque Light. These straight-legged pants complement any shape, while the Matrix double-weave stretch fabric plus gusseted crotch made for flowing movement. The flattering, part-elastic waistband with snap fastening ensured that the pants stayed anchored while also being comfy. While pulling plastic, doing cardio, and weightlifting, our tester never had to readjust: “The waistband ensured they stayed put even when I took weird bouldering falls,” she said. She also dug the storage capacity of the two front, 11-inch-deep, open-hand pockets and the two six-inch-deep, zipped thigh pockets. MSRP: $115
