Lagoped Supa

The Lagoped Supa pants were tested at the same time as the jacket from the same brand, Eve Lagoped (https://www.test4outside.com/produit/lagoped-eve/). They are designed for skiing and ski touring.

They are well cut, halfway between pure freeride pants and something for ski touring. A very versatile product.

You notice the comfort as soon as you put them on. This is due to the well-designed cut and slightly stretchy fabric. Worn without technical underwear, the Lagoped Supa is soft against the skin but it’s best to wear a base layer because the Supa aren’t insulated.

We worried that the pants might fall down as they aren’t salopettes, and they don’t rise very high at the back,  but they didn’t, the fit is secure thanks to the Velcro on either side of the hips. The Velcro is actually inside the pants so more difficult to access yet very secure adjustment. The whole system is not thick and therefore there’s no interference under a harness when out on a glacial zone.

On the thighs, a wide zip (waterproof) allows you to air your legs. Small netting to prevent the snow from sneaking in could’ve been a good option. Maybe Lagoped wanted to limit the price or weight.

The base of the pants is kitted out with black textile that protects against being battered. Curiously, it is also stretchy. The height seems well calculated, but skiers would probably like a little more width. However, we didn’t notice any weaknesses in the surrounding fabric after a few weeks of use.

The gaiter is easily adjusted with a vertical opening and a Velcro and an elastic that fits the boot’s shape. There’s the traditional small metal hook, to clip onto the boots, to prevent the gaiter from rising up when walking in powder, in a couloir for example …

 

These are very nice pants to wear because the knee area does not create folds when you bend your legs. No creases either on the outside of the legs which is often the case when the fabric is too stiff or if there is a large zip that allows you to take off the pants without removing your boots.

The pocket on the right thigh looks nice but it is very flat on the thigh and you can only accommodate soft objects: handkerchief for example. Its zip could be a little wider to be able to put your hand in deeper.

We liked the zips with small cords and plastic tips that don’t slip and get caught easily when you have cold fingers or wearing gloves.

 

The Sympatex membrane displays 20,000 Schmerbers but we didn’t test it in heavy rain. In the snow they are waterproof. The breathability is in line with what you can expect from this type of product, that is to say, that beyond a certain physical effort (ski touring for example), it is still necessary to use the air vents.

Last but not least, the Lagoped Supa is a product that has limited environmental impact. The membrane is 100% recyclable, manufactured without perfluorocarbons (PFCs used for their hydrophobic and oleophobic properties), without fluorocarbon treatment. They are manufactured in Poland and cost a little less than 390 euros.

The Lagoped Supa, like the Eve jacket of the same brand, is a very reliable product. Well-made, the cut is well-designed and very comfortable. The environmental aspect is very commendable and we support Lagoped fully. We also love the colors of their products.
