Molecule Outdoor Lightweights Ripstop Cargo Pants

Molecule Outdoor Lightweights – lightweight ripstop cargo pants

Molecule Outdoor Lightweights 55003 combine practical cargo styling with lightweight cotton ripstop and a more streamlined fit than Molecule’s classic baggy styles. The result is a comfortable and functional pair of cargo pants offering a good balance of low weight, freedom of movement and durability.

Streamlined fit with freedom of movement

The Outdoor Lightweights have a straight, streamlined cut that sits closer to the body than Molecule’s roomier cargo pants. However, they are not designed to be tight-fitting and still provide good freedom of movement for everyday wear and active use.

The lightweight fabric can make the trousers feel slightly smaller than Molecule’s heavier Heavy Duty styles. Always use the measurements in the size guide and compare them with a pair of trousers that fit you well.

Size reference: A person measuring 180 cm and weighing 82 kg wears size Large.

Lightweight cotton ripstop

The trousers are made from 100% cotton with a ripstop weave. Ripstop can be recognised by its subtle grid structure, which is designed to help prevent small tears from spreading through the fabric.

The lightweight and breathable material makes the Outdoor Lightweights particularly suitable for warm weather, travel, outdoor activities and active everyday use.

Practical pockets and adjustable leg openings

The practical design includes angled hand pockets, roomy cargo pockets on the thighs and rear pockets with protective flaps. Panelled knee construction adds to the functional and military-inspired appearance.

The leg openings can be adjusted, allowing the trousers to hang straight or sit more closely around your footwear.

Outdoor Lightweights and Featherweights

The Outdoor Lightweights and Featherweights share the same lightweight ripstop construction and streamlined Molecule styling. The main difference is the leg length:

• Outdoor Lightweights: Full-length ripstop cargo pants
• Molecule Featherweights: Lightweight ripstop cargo shorts

Looking for a heavier fabric?

If you like the streamlined design but prefer a heavier and more substantial fabric, consider the Molecule Heavy Outdoors cargo pants. This model is made from heavyweight cotton with a stonewashed finish.
