Home to some of the hottest and most humid places on the planet, the equator carves through dense tropical jungles, warm seas, and crowded cities. Instead of seasons or temperature changes you’re more likely to be hit by a wall of heat, sun, rain and humidity. But as global temperatures rise and climate zones shift, designing clothing for the equator is like designing for our future.
So the Equator Pants are built to keep you comfortable in all 40,000km of one of the most extreme environments we currently inhabit and one that’s set to grow. The pants start with one of the lightest and softest materials on the planet – a rare, silk-like cotton from the Nile Delta – which we combine with ultrafine nylon and elastane for durability and stretch. They’re then engineered with an advanced ventilation system built with 332 laser-cut vents and super soft Italian mesh.
Over the last few years, the pants have been worn everywhere from Death Valley California and the Australian Outback, to the deserts of Oman. They’re highly breathable, dry fast after downpours, and you can now wear them with our as an ultra lightweight travel suit to keep you cool in the heat.
