Two pants in one, because the best clothing doesn't ask you to choose between the trail and your plans. The Women's Switchback 2-in-one zips off at the thigh to convert from cargo pant to cargo short in under a minute, no bag change, no wardrobe decision. Made from nylon with inherent water resistance that doesn't wash out, an elastic drawstring waist that holds all day, and six pockets that keep the carry on you. The baggy fit moves through a trail, a terminal, and everywhere the day ends up. Black or Dark Grey, both go wherever you do.

Women’s Switchback Convertible Cargo Pant - Black / 28

₹5,499.00
The Switchback Story

She Doesn't Plan One Kind of Day.

Trail-ready. City-appropriate. Converts to shorts in under a minute.

The Switchback zips off at the thigh when the trail gets hot and zips back on when the evening cools down. No spare pair, no bag change, no compromise. Water-resistant nylon, six pockets that replace the bag, and an elastic waist that's been comfortable since hour one and is still comfortable at the end of the last day. The baggy fit moves on a climb, in transit, and through every version of the trip that didn't match the itinerary. Dressed for the trailhead at 8, at the market by noon, dinner sorted by evening. One pant. Your whole day.

Built for Both. Engineered for Everything.

01
UPF-50 Protection

UPF-50 Protection

UPF-50 is woven into the fabric — blocking 98% of UV-A and UV-B radiation. On a high-altitude trail or a sun-baked city pavement, your legs are protected whether you thought about it or not. The kind of feature that works quietly in the background on every single wear.

UV Sheild
02
Water Resistant

Water Resistant

Water resistance is inherent to the nylon. Rain beads off. Splashes dry fast. It performs the same on the twentieth trip as the first. No re-treatment, no degradation, no moment on a wet trail when you realise it's stopped working.

Weather Protection
03
Ripstop Construction

Ripstop Construction

The nylon is ripstop — a reinforced grid weave that stops a tear from spreading the moment it starts. Catch it on a fence, snag it on a corner, wear it daily for two years — it holds its shape and its integrity. The fabric that earns its price over time.

Fabric Technology
04
Six-Pocket Architecture

Six-Pocket Architecture

Two front hand pockets, two rear flap-close patch pockets, one zip-close and one flap-close thigh cargo pocket — six storage zones, each placed and sized for a specific purpose. Not decoration. Not an afterthought. A system.

Air Flow System
05
Active Cooling

Active Cooling

Cooling technology built into the fabric — not applied on top of it. The result is a pant that actively manages heat rather than trapping it. On a 38°C city day or a noon-sun trail, this is the difference between a pant you fight and one you forget you’re wearing.

Temperature Control
BUILT FOR INDIA

Where to Wear

Her Day. Not a Category.

A woman hiking outdoors in a coastal town setting, wearing a beige ribbed tank top, dark gray cargo shorts, and carrying a tan backpack.

Travel

Pack one pant for six days. Not because you're underpacking, because the Switchback covers a trail day, a city day, a travel day, and every unplanned day in between.

A woman wearing a beige and brown vertically striped button-down shirt and dark trousers sits next to a crate of blueberries in an outdoor market setting.

Everyday

Black and Dark Grey don't announce their category. The baggy silhouette works through a market, a long walk, an errand run that turns into a half-day out. Not outdoor gear that tolerates the city, a pant that was never limited to one environment.

A woman hiking through a shallow river with rocks, wearing a beige crop top, gray cargo pants, brown hiking boots, and a camouflage cap, carrying a water bottle and a backpack.

Trail

The water resistance handles the stream crossing. The ankle drawcord keeps the hem clear on the descent. Six pockets keep the permit, snacks, and phone on the body. By the time the trail ends at a town you didn't plan to stop in, you're still in the Switchback.

Women’s Switchback Convertible Cargo Pant
In a Class of Its Own

Six Reasons It Earns Its Place in the Bag.

01

Two Garments. One Pant.

If the trip needs both a pant and a short, the Switchback means packing one instead of two. Weight saved, space saved, one fewer decision at 5am. On a trip where everything in the bag has to justify itself, a garment that does two jobs earns its place ahead of everything.

02

Water Resistance That Doesn't Wash Out

The Switchback's resistance is part of the fibre. It performs the same on the last trip of year two as it did on the first trip of year one. No re-treatment, no degradation.

03

A Fit That Works Everywhere

Most cargo pants signal outdoor gear the moment they walk into a room. The Switchback's baggy silhouette in Black or Dark Grey reads as a clothing choice, not a category declaration. Trail to restaurant, trailhead to terminal, you look like you chose correctly.

04

An Elastic Waist That Goes the Distance

Rigid waistbands are fine for the upright, active hour. They announce themselves through everything else. The Switchback's elasticated drawstring waist is comfortable across a long-haul flight, a full trail day, and the transit that connects them.

05

Six Pockets That Give the Bag a Day Off

Properly sized. Properly placed. Hip for rotation, thigh for volume, back for flat storage. The everyday carry fits on the body with room to spare, not the overstuffed two-pocket compromise, but a full distributed carry system. On the right day, the bag stays home.

06

Black and Dark Grey Go Everywhere

Colourways that need context create decisions. Black and Dark Grey create none. In a wardrobe built for movement, colourways that work everywhere aren't the safe choice. They're the only logical one.

About Six Pocket

Every Pocket Has a Job

01

Left & Right Slant Hip Pockets

Full-depth slant entry on both sides, big enough for a phone, reachable without adjusting posture or breaking stride. The constant-rotation pockets. Clean entry, no flap hardware. The front pockets that actually work.

02

Left & Right Front Cargo Pockets

Large flap-close cargo pockets at the front thigh, sized for volume. A wallet, a foldable layer, a small camera. Flap closure keeps them secure on a trail or in a crowd. Positioned at the thigh so the weight sits stable and low, not pulling forward at the hip.

03

Left & Right Back Pockets

Flat storage at the back for the things that go in once and come out when needed. Sized to sit flat against the body. No bulk, no visible shape when empty. Present when needed. Invisible when not.

04

Zip-Off Leg System

The legs detach at the thigh via a seam zip running along the outer leg. The zip is clean — no visible overlap when open, no hemline compromise when the legs are off. The detached legs are compact enough to stow into one of the front cargo pockets, keeping the conversion option available throughout the day rather than left behind. The short length is proportional to the wide-leg silhouette: the same fit logic, half the length.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Treat It Right. It'll Last.

Close all zip pockets before washing. Machine wash cold with similar colours.

Do not bleach.

Tumble dry low or hang dry.

Do not bleach. Do not dry clean.

The water resistance is inherent to the nylon and is maintained through standard cold-wash care — no re-treatment required.

The Switchback Story

A switchback on a trail
is where the path finds a better route up the mountain, not straight at it, but
across it. Building height without the brute force. The design logic behind
this pant works the same way.

The trekking category
designs for the pure trail day. The city category designs for the pavement.
Neither designs for the person whose week contains both, often on consecutive
days, sometimes on the same one. The Switchback fills that gap. Baggy fit that
moves across terrain and contexts without explanation. A convertible zip that
turns one garment into two without adding a second to the bag. An elastic waist
built for the full duration of the trip. Water resistance that won't quit. Six
pockets that make the bag optional.

For someone that is not
defined by where they go, but are defined by the fact that they go and
prepared, and again. #EddieSetGo.

THE EB PROMISE

Eddie Set Go. Built for people who stop waiting and start moving.

In 1936, Eddie Bauer went on a winterfishing trip, nearly froze to death, and came home with one thought: nobody hadbuilt the right gear, so he was going to build it himself. He didn’t wait forconditions to be perfect. He didn’t wait for someone else to solve the problem.He just went and did it. That’s EDDIE SET GO — the belief that thebest adventures don’t happen to people who are ready. They happen to people whodecide to go. Every piece in this range was built forthat decision. The moment you stop overthinking the forecast, the weekend, theright time, and just go. We’ve taken care of the gear. The rest is on you. And if anything we’ve made doesn’t hold upto the adventure you took it on — we want to know about it. That’s not apolicy. That’s who we are.
