Original Freedom

The Iconic G-Pant

Where it all began

The Original Climbing Pant

The G-Pant is where it all began. Designed in the early 1980s with rock climbing in mind, these trousers quickly became a staple for those who valued movement, durability, and function.

Tough enough for the crag, but comfortable enough for everyday wear, they laid the blueprint for generations of outdoor-ready gear.

180 degree flexibility

Designed for Movement

The G-Pant was built for movement. That signature diamond-shaped gusset in the crotch was borrowed from high-kicking karate trousers, it allows for full 180-degree flexibility—perfect for scrambling up rock faces, and for pretty much anyone who needs a bit of extra movement.

Built to last

Tough, Functional, and Timeless

Made from organic cotton twill, the G-Pant is as tough as they come.

The built-in nylon belt and elasticated waistband means they are adjustable and comfortable. They have a relaxed shape, with a low rise and plenty of room around the hips. The legs gently taper from hip to hem.

Over the years, we’ve refined the details—adding a zip fly and rear pockets—but the core design remains unchanged.

Beyond Yosemite

More Than Just a Climbing Pant

The G-Pant’s versatility took it beyond the cliffs of Yosemite. By the mid-80s, skaters, surfers, and explorers of all kinds were drawn to its durable construction and effortless style. Before long, Gramicci had found a new audience—one that valued function just as much as form.

From Japan’s streetwear scene to forward-thinking outdoor stores around the world, the G-Pant cemented its place as an icon.

A New Take on a Classic

The New G-Pant Straight Fit

For 2025, we’ve introduced a new addition to the lineup—the G-Pant Straight Fit.

It’s everything you love about the original, but with a straight-leg silhouette for an even more relaxed shape. Whereas the G-Pant has an 8 inch hem, the G-Pant Straight-fit has a roomier 9 1/2 inch hem.

Wider at the hem, but still packed with those original Gramicci details, this new version is an alternative for those who like a little extra room.

Often Imitated, Never Beaten.

The G-Pant has been reimagined and reinterpreted by countless others, but nothing beats the original. Whether you go for the classic G-Pant or the new straight-leg version, one thing remains the same—these are trousers designed to move, built to last, and ready for whatever comes next.
