The Montane Women's Malli Merino Tights represent a highly technical first layer, engineered for mountaineers, ski tourers, and trail runners seeking an optimal balance of thermal insulation, low weight, and durability. These leggings feature advanced Core Spun Merino yarn technology, where durable nylon fibres are wrapped in fine 18.5-micron merino wool. This achieves exceptional mechanical abrasion resistance while retaining all the natural benefits of wool, all at a minimal weight of just 125 g.

The carefully selected fabric blend combines 84% merino wool, 11% polyamide (nylon), and 5% elastane at a fabric weight of 140 g/m², ensuring next-to-skin softness, rapid drying, and complete freedom of movement. Merino wool acts as a natural thermoregulator, keeping you warm in freezing conditions while efficiently wicking moisture during intense ascents, retaining thermal protection even when damp. Furthermore, the natural antibacterial properties of merino fibres prevent unpleasant odours, making these tights the ideal choice for multi-day alpine tours and expeditions.

A refined, ergonomic close fit (Trim Fit) hugs the body precisely, allowing for frictionless layering under shell or insulated trousers. Flatlock low-profile merrow seams eliminate chafing, while a comfortable elastic waistband keeps the tights securely in place during dynamic activities. Crafted with Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) certified merino wool and backed by Montane's commitment to bluesign® standards and the Fair Wear Foundation, these tights unite supreme technical performance with high environmental and ethical responsibility.
