Columbia Skien Valley Cargo Insect Shield Pants - Dark Stone
Beige trekking pants made of lightweight yet damage-resistant polyester. The UPF 50 sun protection effectively blocks harmful UV rays and promotes moisture wicking, ensuring comfort in hot weather. Perfect for mountain trips and hiking.
The model uses the innovative Insect Shield technology, which involves permanently imbuing the fabric with permethrin, an insect repellent. This solution reduces the risk of bites without compromising comfort. The substance is imperceptible, odorless, and safe for skin contact. The technology has been registered by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Omni-Shade technology, Omni-Wick system
The Omni-Shade technology used in the pants effectively protects the skin against a wide spectrum of UV radiation, minimizing its negative impact. The Omni-Wick system is responsible for efficient moisture wicking, transporting sweat from the skin to the outside of the fabric, helping to maintain optimal body temperature and a dry feeling even during intense activity.
Mesh ventilation inserts, integrated belt
The design includes shaped knees and ribbing at the bottom of the legs, which increases freedom of movement and allow the pants to fit better with footwear. Mesh ventilation panels are located at the back of the knees to support effective air circulation. The waistband features an integrated, detachable belt for precise circumference adjustment and a better fit.
Practical pockets
The model includes a functional set of pockets - 2 classic side pockets, back pockets, a cargo pocket with Velcro, as well as 2 zippered pockets, including 1 on the back and 1 on the side.

Omni-Wick is an innovative technology characterized by efficient wicking of body moisture, temperature regulation and fast-drying materials. It keeps the skin dry and comfortable during activity, and can reduce the development of odors.
Omni-Shade keeps you safe during sun activities. Thanks to its compact weave construction and UV-absorbing substances, it effectively blocks ultraviolet A and B rays (UVA and UVB). It features several levels of sun protection, indicated by a numerical filter value such as SPF50.
Insect Shield is a technology used in Columbia clothing that permanently integrates the insecticide permethrin into the fabric fibers. This provides long-lasting protection against insects such as mosquitoes, ticks, flies, and black flies. The advantage of this technology is that it is invisible and odorless, which means that the clothing retains its natural look, breathability, and comfort. The technology has been registered by the American Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and is safe for users.
