Swix Horizon Pants 2.0 W – women’s warm ski pants

Manufacturer’s product number: 10433-26
Colour: Dark navy · 75100

Swix Horizon Pants 2.0 W are women’s warm softshell pants for cold-weather cross-country skiing. The insulated front adds warmth against wind when the aim is to accumulate easy kilometres and keep the thighs comfortable over a longer outing.

Woven softshell and articulated knees support skiing movement. A brushed lining panel adds comfort, and the high waist provides coverage in a skiing stance.

Zipped hand pockets and leg zippers add practical functionality. The DWR finish repels water, while reflective details improve visibility in low light.

XCSKIguru Tips

• For long, easy endurance outings in freezing conditions: consider Horizon when thin training pants leave your thighs cold early in the session. Front insulation adds warmth without relying entirely on base layers.
• Pair with Horizon Jacket 2.0 W. Dark navy pants suit both the matching jacket and Cherry. The outfit is geared towards easy skiing in cold weather; for hard intervals I would compare the lighter Triac outfit.
• When to add merino? Polaris Baselayer Pants W add warmth for cold, easier sessions. For a brisker outing, I would first try thinner technical underwear because the pants already have insulation.
• Different warmth above and below: if the thighs need insulation but the back gets sweaty, pair these with a lighter ski jacket. Warm pants don’t require an equally warm upper layer.
