Montbell says: 

The well appointed and value oriented Thunder Pass Pants are cut full for effective layering and offer all of the basic features seasoned travellers require. Packable and comfortable these rain pants are not too light, but they do offer functional coverage at a bargain.

Our Verdict

Durable and hardwearing waterproof over trousers made from a 50-denier nylon ripstop. Articulated knees and the innovative Samue Leg Closure System, which takes inspiration from the Zen monks of Japan, and is an innovative system to adjust the length of the pant legs, these make for well-fitted trousers.  They have a nice cut that allows for layering underneath.
