From exposed ridgelines to overgrown singletrack, the Women's Summit Pants offer lightweight protection and breathable comfort for your warm-weather trail missions. Designed for aggressive pedaling and confident movement, these women's mountain bike pants deliver coverage without the bulk, so you can ride hard, stay cool, and keep moving.
Built with the same lightweight, durable stretch fabric as our Summit Shorts, these pants offer just enough protection from brush, sun, and trail allergens without sacrificing airflow. Perforated leg panels enhance ventilation, while two zippered Trail Access™ pockets are smartly positioned to shift contents behind your legs for comfort while pedaling. The external G-hook waist adjustment dials in a secure, low-bulk fit that won't sag mid-ride.
Finished with PFAS-free PI Dry® water-shedding technology, a 31.25" inseam, and compatibility with most knee pads, these pants are a go-to for riders who demand performance in changing conditions. And with recycled content in the build, they're part of your commitment to responsible adventure.

Reviews
Nice material ; they should stretch out a little for the tighter fit
"Compared to other size medium PI pants, these are a tag smaller/tight. It could be that the material is stiff, but still stretchy. I know that’s a contradiction. I’m hoping they stretch out a little bit with wear. Had to keep since on final sale. I feel I’m always between sizes; small vs medium and size 6 vs 8."
Way too small
"I’m consistently and 8 and these run more like a 6. Too tight on me and unfortunately I can’t return because they were final sale."
Summit Pants
"Love these pants! Getting used to not having pockets in the typical spots, but I think it makes the pants more flattering. Lightweight, breathable, fun colour. And makes my peach look great!"
Perfect fit. True to size.
"Perfect fit. True to size. Love the vented legs."
Summit pants
"Love these!"
Ordering a 2nd pair
"At 5’9, most athletic pants are just a hair too short for me, but these are perfect. Living in Hawaii I need some thin pants and these are perfect. They have a lot of flex, they are formfitting and actually flattering. Love the pockets perfect for hiking also. True to size. Ordered size 6, 5’9 135lbs"
Summit pants
"Great pants lightweight. Not great waist adjustments and legs are tight. I sized up and still found the legs tight but sizing up more and the waist wouldn’t work Pants are long length. Have to fold up the bottom a couple times. Good quality"
Perfect fall riding pants
"Got these for bike commuting and mountain biking when it's getting a little nippy outside. They won't be warm enough for true cold weather but are perfect for cooler temps. Roomy enough to wear over a padded liner and allow freedom of movement, but not baggy."
Great pants ‘
"I love them! They are really comfortable, fit is perfect and they look great. I’m 5’4’’ 130, narrow hips. They are pretty much perfect for me."
Just don’t fit me
"This is the 2nd pair of PI pants that fit great except they are so tight in the calf I can’t get them up to where they are supposed to sit."
