The North Face Slider 2027 – Shell Pants

The North Face Slider is a shell snowboard pant built for riders who live in the park. With a deliberately relaxed silhouette that gives your legs room to move, it suits anyone who spends their day hitting features, throwing grabs, or just cruising laps without feeling restricted by their outerwear.

The shell is constructed from a two-layer DryVent™ fabric made of 100% recycled nylon with a Non-PFC durable water-repellent finish, keeping you dry without relying on harmful fluorinated chemicals. The pull-on design pairs with an adjustable elasticated waistband for a dialled-in fit over your base layers. Inside, a lightweight 100% recycled polyester mesh lining adds a touch of comfort, while internal gaiters with gripper elastic seal out snow at the boot interface — a critical detail when you're stomping landings or punching through unpacked pow on the sides of the park.

This pant is ideal for freestyle-focused riders who prioritize mobility and a street-influenced look over heavy insulation. If you run warm, layer aggressively underneath, or ride in milder resort conditions, the Slider's shell construction is exactly the right call. The roomy fit also makes it easy to pull on and off over snowboard boots, which adds up over a full day of lapping.

• Is the Slider waterproof? Yes. The DryVent™ 2L fabric is engineered to be waterproof, windproof, and breathable, with seam-sealed construction for full protection.
• Does it come with insulation? No — the Slider is an uninsulated shell pant, designed to be worn with your own base and mid layers for a customizable warmth system.
