Women's Exploration Pant
160D 93% Recycled Nylon + 7% Elastane · Non-PFC DWR · Roll-Up Secure-Snap Hem · Mesh-Lined Hand Pockets · Secure-Zip Thigh Pocket · 266 g · Numeric 2-12 · SHT/REG/LNG Inseams

Hiking is easier in the Women's Exploration Pant. Lightweight stretch fabric moves with you over uneven terrain, while a roll-up securable hem provides lower-leg ventilation on warm climbs or stream crossings. Two hand pockets and a secure-zip thigh pocket hold what you need, and a non-PFC DWR finish sheds light showers when the weather rolls in. Tapered to the ankle for a clean line over hiking shoes.

Regular Fit, Tapered to the Ankle
A regular fit through the hip and thigh tapers to a clean ankle — delivers a polished silhouette that sits cleanly over hiking shoes without the baggy feel of traditional trail pants.
Non-PFC DWR Finish
A non-PFC DWR finish causes light rain, morning dew, and trail splashes to bead up and roll off — keeps the fabric from saturating during wet-weather hikes and damp underbrush.
93% Recycled Nylon Body
Body fabric is made with 93% recycled nylon — durable, lightweight performance with a much lighter footprint on the planet than virgin nylon.
Stretch Construction
A 7% elastane blend adds two-way stretch — moves with you through high steps, scrambles, and steep descents without restriction or bagging at the knees.
Waistband with Belt & Grosgrain Loops
A waistband with belt and grosgrain belt loops sits cleanly under a pack hip-belt without digging in — grosgrain loops are stiffer and more durable than standard webbing loops for heavy belt use.
Zip-Fly with Snap Closure
A zip-fly with snap closure keeps the front secure on the move — fast, secure, and easy to operate one-handed at rest stops.
Mesh-Lined Hand Pockets
Drop-in, mesh-lined hand pockets breathe during high-output activity and ventilate hot hands — the mesh interior keeps the pockets from getting clammy on warm-weather hikes.
Secure-Zip Thigh Pocket
A secure-zip thigh pocket on the right holds a phone, keys, or trail snacks — the zipper keeps contents from bouncing out when you're scrambling or moving fast.
Darted Knees
Darting at the knees pre-shapes the pant for natural articulation — eliminates fabric bunching behind the knee when you're stepping over logs, scrambling, or descending steep terrain.
Open Back Pockets
Open back pockets hold a map, snack bar, or thin liner gloves — sit within easy reach and add extra storage without adding bulk to the front profile.
Roll-Up Secure-Snap Hem
A roll-up, secure-snap hem holds the cuff neatly in place when you want lower-leg ventilation — converts the pant to capri length without the bulk of a separate pair or messy rolling.
Logo on Left Thigh
A clean TNF logo on the left thigh — subtle, recognizable branding that doesn't shout.

What's Included
In Box
1 × Women's Exploration Pant

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild technical wash — close the secure-zip thigh pocket and any hook-and-loop before tossing them in.

Turn the pants inside-out before washing to protect the non-PFC DWR finish, the secure-zip thigh pocket, and the embroidered logo.

Tumble dry on low heat for 20-30 minutes to reactivate the non-PFC DWR finish — heat is essential to keep water beading on the surface rather than saturating the face fabric.

Do not bleach, do not use fabric softener, and do not use dryer sheets — all three can coat the 93% recycled nylon + 7% elastane blend and degrade the stretch recovery, the breathability of the mesh pocket lining, and the DWR finish.

Do not iron, do not dry clean, and do not wring the pants when wet — wringing can damage the elastane fibers and stretch recovery over time.

Re-apply a non-PFC DWR spray-on treatment (like Nikwax TX Direct or Granger's Performance Repel) after several washes or whenever water stops beading on the surface — refreshes the water-shedding performance and extends the life of the recycled nylon fabric.

Hang the pants to dry fully between uses, especially after sweaty hikes or wet weather, to prevent mildew and odor buildup in the mesh pocket linings.

Store folded in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid hanging by the waistband belt loops long-term, which can stretch the waistband out of shape.

Check the secure-snap hem buttons periodically for wear — the snap mechanism is the most likely point of failure over years of rolling and unrolling, and replacement is straightforward with a standard snap kit.
