Mountain Research’s output may be meticulously crafted and unfailingly chic, but designer Setsumasa Kobayashi isn’t necessarily connected to the worlds of traditional fashion or hype driven streetwear. As to be expected from a brand whose biannual collections are conceived during a literal mountain retreat, practical functionality is always the foremost priority for Kobayashi and Mountain Research.

The MT Pants can conquer mountains or the trek across town with a classic relaxed fit that narrows to an elastic cuff to keep you as comfortable as you are insulated. But one look at the knee situation and you’ll know these are just any old outdoor pants.
