Product Info

The Helly Hansen Switch Cargo 2.0 Pant is made for skiers who want warmth, weather protection, and enough pocket space to carry all the little things. HELLY TECH® PERFORMANCE and 40g PrimaLoft® Black Eco insulation keep you protected and comfortably warm, while 2-way stretch and articulated knees make it easy to move. Add cargo pockets, reinforced hems, boot gaiters, and ventilation openings, and these pants are ready for ski days, snowshoe adventures, and everything in between.

We recommend this for:

Resort skiers who want warmth, weather protection, and plenty of storage. They’re especially suited to casual-to-active skiers, snowshoers, and anyone who likes having room for essentials without carrying a pack. The versatile design also makes them great for sledding, winter adventures with the kids, and other cold-weather activities.

Technical Features

Warmth Rating

With 40g PrimaLoft® Black Eco insulation, the Switch Cargo 2.0 offers lightweight, everyday warmth without feeling bulky. It’s a good match for active resort days, with room for a base layer or lightweight midlayer when it gets colder.

HELLY TECH® PERFORMANCE, fully seam-sealed construction, and a DWR treatment provide solid protection from snow and moisture. It’s well suited to regular resort skiing and winter activities. Helly Hansen does not publish a specific water-column rating, but HELLY TECH® PERFORMANCE is estimated to perform in the 14 - 18K range.

Helly Tech® Performance

HELLY TECH® Performance is Helly Hansen’s versatile waterproof, windproof, and breathable technology designed for active outdoor use in changing conditions. Built for high-output activities like skiing and snowboarding, it provides reliable protection from snow, wind, and moisture while allowing excess heat and sweat vapor to escape. It offers a strong balance of weather protection, breathability, and durability for all-day performance on the mountain.

Best for: Resort skiing, snowboarding, touring, and active winter adventures where you need dependable protection without sacrificing mobility or comfort.

PrimaLoft® Black Eco

PrimaLoft® Black Eco is a lightweight synthetic insulation made with recycled materials that delivers reliable warmth, softness, and packability while maintaining performance in damp conditions. Designed as an efficient alternative to down, it retains heat even when wet, dries quickly, and provides comfortable insulation without adding unnecessary bulk.

Best for: Active outdoor use where you need lightweight warmth, breathability, and dependable performance through changing weather conditions — making it a great choice for ski pants, jackets, and other high-movement gear.

RECCO®

RECCO® is a rescue technology designed to help professional rescue teams locate people in the backcountry or mountains. A lightweight, passive reflector integrated into gear responds to signals from a RECCO® detector used by trained rescuers, helping narrow down a person's location during avalanche searches or emergency situations.

Best for: Skiers, snowboarders, and outdoor adventurers who want an added layer of safety when exploring the mountains. RECCO® does not replace avalanche gear, training, or safe decision-making, but it can improve the chances of being located by rescue professionals in an emergency.
