Outdoor Research Aspire Plus 3L Pants are our best-selling high-performance packable rain shell. These set a new benchmark for lightweight, durable, breathable, waterproof rain protection.

Equipped with an exclusive Nikwax DWR and made from 100% recycled three-layer fabric with movement-mirroring stretch, these pants are the first technical apparel in the outdoor industry certified carbon-neutral by Climate Impact Partners. The Aspire boasts a stretch 3L (three-layer) nylon shell and Nikwax's Direct-Dry, a high-performance, durable factory-applied DWR exclusive to our Aspire Collection.

Outdoor Research's proprietary AscentShell™ Dry technology ensures exceptional breathability, waterproofing, and wind resistance, effectively keeping moisture out while allowing sweat vapour to escape, helping to regulate body temperature.

The Aspire's mechanical stretch, articulated knees, and gusseted crotch provide an unrestricted range of motion, while full seam taping and YKK® Aquaguard® zippers offer additional moisture protection. The 3/4-length side zippers make it easy to put on and take off, even over footwear. When the sun comes out, the pants can be conveniently stowed in their back pocket and clipped to a harness or backpack daisy chain.

Ideal for hiking in the rain, cycling in tough conditions, or tackling a wet weekend adventure, the Aspire Plus Size 3L Rain Pants are designed for reliable wet-weather performance and are our most sustainable rain pants to date.
