The Marmot Women's Midweight Bottom uses innovative fabrics that provide breathable warmth as a base-laye. As part of the Upcycle product line Marmot has utilized the discarded waste materials from manufacturing processes in the creation of new products in order to minimize our impact on the environment. Without sacrificing performance this garment has an environmental feel good factor. All fabrics in this series feature a patented bi-component knit construction that uses different yarns on either side of the fabric. This creates two different surfaces: one that is optimized to move moisture away from the skin, the other to dry quickly. Flat lock construction means no side seams for greater comfort. Sized specifically for women to fit your body, not a smaller men's version.

Polartec® Power Dry®
Moisture and high relative humidity next to the skin cause discomfort. Polartec® Power Dry® keeps the skin dry through three complementary mechanisms:
1) The fabric is highly breathable and does not restrict the movement of moisture vapor.
2) "Touch points" on the fabric inner surface draw moisture. Sweat is wicked off the skin to the outside of the fabric where it spreads rapidly for evaporation. Polartec® Power Dry® fabrics move at least 30% more moisture away from the skin than single-component fabrics.
3) When the sweat reaches the outside of the fabric, it spreads out on the outer surface of the fabric, enabling it to dry at least 2 times faster than cotton.
