BLACKYAK has gone the extra mile to prioritize safety and durability in the Thulagi GTX 3L Pro Shell Bib Pant. Function combined with sustainable design.

Thoughtful design for more safety

BLACKYAKS's Thulagi GTX 3L Pro Shell Bib Pant is a prime example of what outdoor enthusiasts, professional mountaineers, and ambitious amateurs need to make their adventures both exhilarating and safe. The Thulagi GTX 3L Pro Shell Bib Pant is constructed using the highly breathable Gore-Tex Pro 70D 3-layer fabric. This choice of material not only ensures exceptional durability but also offers superior wind proofing and waterproofing. The Thulagi GTX 3L Pro Shell Bib Pant boasts a rugged design with a higher-cut Cordura bib, providing maximum protection from the elements. The thoughtful design extends to mesh pockets on the bib for secure storage and harness-compatible side pockets with an integrated avalanche transceiver leash. “These features ensure that everything you need is always within reach during your adventures”, says Maximilian Nortz, Managing Director International Business at BLACKYAK. For comfort and adaptability during outdoor activities, these bib pants include two-way ventilation zips that open fully at the bottom. This innovative design keeps you comfortable and helps regulate your body temperature as you tackle varying terrains and weather conditions.
