Are Threshold Rain Pants Packable for Backpacking?
The top buyer question: are Mountain Hardwear Threshold rain pants packable for backpacking? Yes — they pack into their own pocket, shrinking to stuff-sack size for a pack lid or side pocket. The 3-layer waterproof/breathable build is the same construction found on spendier shells, at a fraction of the price.
Do They Fit Over Hiking Boots?
Yes. The 3/4 side zips run from hip to hem, letting you pull the pants on and off over boots without removing footwear — and doubling as max ventilation when rain pauses.
Weight and Pack Size
Light enough for shoulder-season backpacking and compact enough to forget it's in your pack until the sky opens. Elastic cuffs and a drawcord waist seal out weather without added bulk.
