Protest PRTHindon Softshell Snowpants

The PRTHindon is a softshell ski trouser built for regular skiers who want stretch and breathability without the weight of a full insulated pant. Made from 94% recycled polyester with a 10,000 mm waterproof rating and PFC-free water repellent treatment, they'll keep you dry through powder and spring snow. The 10,000 g/m²/24h breathability means moisture escapes when you're working hard.

Why we rate it

The fitted cut and stretch fabric give you freedom of movement—important when you're carving or linking turns. The pre-shaped legs follow your body's natural angle, so you're not fighting the fabric. Elasticated inner cuffs with silicone grip keep snow out and stay in place through moguls and crud. The 300 g/m² fabric weight means they pack small and won't bog you down if you're skinning up or spending time in the resort.

The high waist and snap-button closure are classic ski-pant engineering that works. Two zippered pockets hold essentials. Zippered leg cuffs let you get boots on and off without undoing the whole waist, and they sit over ski boots cleanly.

Who it's for

Women skiers of any ability who prefer softshell over insulated trousers—especially those who run warm or ski resorts with variable weather. The fitted cut suits a curvier fit without being tight through the thighs. High waist suits most torso lengths well.

Fit and feel

Fitted through the hip and thigh with a high waist. The stretch fabric moves with you—no binding or ballooning. Pre-shaping in the knees and calves follows your natural ski stance. Sizing runs true to EU dress sizes (S/36, M/38, L/40, etc.); the fitted cut means if you're between sizes, the larger one will give more room through the glutes and thighs.
