Expedition 8000 Salopettes Pants deliver peak warmth and protection for extreme cold missions
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I took these salopettes to Denali and they were an absolute game-changer. The down insulation held up even during summit pushes in brutal temps, and the full-length side zips were clutch for venting and fast changes at camp."
When we’re gearing up for summit pushes on the world’s tallest peaks or embarking on Polar expeditions where failure isn’t an option, we trust the Expedition 8000 Salopettes. Rab designed this high-altitude specialist piece with serious warmth and protection in mind, combining 850-fill European goose down and PrimaLoft® Gold synthetic insulation to keep us moving when temps plunge and storms rage.
Built with Pertex® Quantum Pro on the outside and Pertex® Quantum lining on the inside, these salopettes shield us from wind, snow, and ice while offering excellent breathability and packability. The box wall construction and differential cut ensure efficient insulation performance, while features like full-length venting zips, a kangaroo front pocket, and mitt-compatible details make life at 8,000 meters or -40° feel manageable. Every pair is hand-filled in Derbyshire, UK, ensuring uncompromising quality for the most demanding objectives.
