WHY DO YOU NEED DOWN SHORTS?
Down jacket, vest, sleeping bag... We are used to such accessories, and probably no one would argue about their usefulness. But shorts? Why would you need them?! And yet, even though it may seem that down shorts are the epitome of extravagance, you will quickly discover that they are rather a testament to extraordinary practicality. They will likely prove to be the most versatile element of your winter wardrobe.
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN FROM THIS POST?
- Who can benefit from down shorts?
- What are the advantages of down shorts?
IN BRIEF
Down-filled shorts are perfect as a warming layer after training, a long hike, or during activities in low temperatures. Side zippers allow you to unzip the shorts along the entire length of the legs, making it easy to put them on or take them off over your shoes (or even skis!).
DOWN SHORTS FOR DYNAMIC ACTIVITIES
Shorts with down filling were created with activities in low temperatures and during breaks on outdoor excursions in mind. They excel especially after training or a long hiking or ski touring trip. You can also use them as an additional warming layer over thermal tights during running workouts. One great advantage of Pajaksport's down shorts is that they have zippers along the sides of the legs, so you can put them on at any time without taking off your shoes. Winter excursion enthusiasts know how inconvenient it can be to change clothes on the trail. Meanwhile, you can quickly put on Phantom Cargo or Lynx shorts and enjoy comfort even while setting up a tent or preparing a base camp.
As befits a product with natural filling, down shorts are lightweight and compressible, so they don't take up much space in your gear. This is another advantage that makes them an invaluable part of an outdoor wardrobe, suitable for spontaneous light trips as well as longer escapades.
PAJAK DOWN SHORTS
Pajak offers three models of shorts with down filling. All of them perform excellently in cold conditions, providing you with comfort and optimal protection against chilling, without restricting your freedom of movement during activities.
PHANTOM CARGO
Phantom Cargo is the result of Pajak's collaboration with the Lange & Lange design studio. Inspired by space suits, these shorts were created as part of the Capsule collection. They are made of ultralight TOREX™ Airtastic™ fabric with a hydrophobic DWR layer. Combined with Pajak's Polish white goose down filling with 750 FP, Phantom shorts not only guarantee comfort in the coldest conditions but are also exceptionally compressible and lightweight. After packing them into the included compression sack, they have a volume of about 1 liter and weigh just over 200 grams.
One significant advantage is the reinforced crotch and back panels, as well as a stable waist closure and reliable fly with YKK/ITW Nexus zippers. The use of these types of zippers prevents heat loss in one of the most critical areas of the shorts, and their reliable system doesn't jam, even when handling them with cold, stiff fingers.
The Phantom Cargo shorts also feature practical pockets, from which the product takes its name. Two front pockets and smaller back pockets allow you to conveniently carry small essentials.
GHOST SHORTS
In terms of design, Ghost Shorts are a down classic. The uniform Airtastic™ fabric with a hydrophobic DWR layer, X construction, and filling with Polish white goose down with a loft of 750 FP make these shorts ultra-lightweight and super practical. When compressed, Ghost Shorts weigh 150 grams and take up a volume smaller than a standard water bottle. They are also equipped with reliable YKK zippers along the legs, allowing you to put on the shorts without removing your pants. The waist of Ghost Shorts is adjustable with an elastic drawstring, and the bottom edges of the legs are reinforced with binding.
LYNX SHORTS
The Lynx collection is the result of Pajak's collaboration with artist Paweł Swański. It is a true tribute to nature! The lynx has been one of the most important animals in Poland for centuries, but human activity has severely limited its population. Today, lynxes are making a comeback, especially in the Beskid forests. The beauty of these magnificent cats is clearly visible in the design of the Lynx line.
In this model, the lining is also made of ultralight TOREX™ Airtastic™ fabric, while the external fabric is polyester with an original print available in four variants. The animal motif makes Lynx Shorts a real treat for fans of graphic style in the outdoors.
If you enjoy dynamic activities, down shorts are the perfect addition to your outdoor wardrobe. Forget about the risk of cooling down during autumn and winter outdoor trips, and get yourself practical Phantom Cargo, super lightweight Ghost Shorts, or stylish Lynx Shorts at pajaksport.pl today!
