The Solidus Story [Our Solidus Leather]
We wanted to make leather pants.
Leather pants are designed for durability, warmth, and versatility. With those fundamentals in mind, we experimented with different materials to identify a durable, lightweight, high-quality leather.
Leather pants can restrict range of motion.
To improve the function of our Solidus leather pants we generated a proprietary technical performance knit textile EXOKNIT. Panels of EXOKNIT were added to high-stress point areas to maximize range of motion, and military grade mesh was included around the crotch area to maintain durability.
Our pockets have side-back placements to prevent distortion of the silhouette and an exterior leather casing over the deep pocket to keep items hidden and secure. We finalized our design with our signature hardware finishes.
- snap hooks along the waistline and thighs,
- sliding straps along the thighs
- Fidlock V-buckle (added for customization and adjustments)
This is how we developed Version 1 of the Solidus pant.
Each IGO product is developed with the same process of scrutiny and innovation to create garments that stand the test of time.
