Men's Granite Creek Pant

Men’s Granite Creek Pant

Mountain Khakis says that they were “careful to not overbuild these pants” — despite the fact that this lightweight, nylon pant is moisture-wicking, dries quickly, provides UPF 50+ sun protection, is packable, and has three zip pockets for all of your accessories.  From Mountain Khakis’ press team, “Too many features can be distracting. Especially for us guys who focus on words like ‘Bud’ and ‘Coors’ and ‘PBR.'”  Despite all of these features, the Granite Creek Pant still employs the “clean lines” and relaxed fit that Mountain Khakis are known for.  They retail for $72.95.
