Product Description

The Men's Skarvan Biobased Pants are an innovation in terms of functionality and sustainability: The material of these pants consists of 62 % castor oil-based polyamide, which increases their durability and significantly minimizes their ecological footprint. The pants are very stretchy, yet retain their shape and with the flexible waistband and slightly articulated knees are ideal for fresh air fans who love to move. Features include two side pockets and one zip pocket each on the leg and on the seat for important small items. The VAUDE Green Shape label stands for environmentally-friendly, functional products made from sustainable and bluesign® certified materials.

UPF rating of 50+

[according to the Australian/New Zealand standard AZ/NZS 4399:1996]Excellent UV protection so that you can enjoy the sun and mountain sports well protected. A UPF rating of 50+ means that a given piece of fabric allows less than 2% (<1/50) of the UV rays that hit it to penetrate through. The UV protection is achieved by fibre selection, weave or material thickness. VAUDE products contain no titanium dioxide, i.e. UV protection is provided solely by the construction of the material. Find out more about UV protection in bike apparel and UV protection in mountain sports apparel.

Stretch material

The fabric's stretch comes from either spandex in the fabric or from the type of knit or weave used for the material. This offers maximum freedom of movement.

Flex Waistband

Self-regulating band system. Particularly comfortable and wrinkle-free.

Material overview Main fabric: 85% Polyamide (thereof 53% biobased), 15% Elastane.

Biobased plastic

This product includes a biobased plastic containing castor oil. Normally, plastics are made from petroleum. In order to conserve this fossil resource, we went out in search of renewable alternatives. Castor oil grows without supplemental irrigation on poor soil and does not compete with the food chain. From the oil of the castor beans we produce fibers for clothing and plastic components such as zippers, buckles and hooks. They have the same properties of conventional materials — only "greener".

Water repellent finish Eco Finish

This product features our water repellent Eco Finish. Applied to the surface of your VAUDE product, it causes rainwater to simply bead up on the surface – without the use of environmentally-harmful fluorocarbons (PFC). Eco Finish protects you from the rain and helps keep nature clean. Find out more about Eco Finish.
