Designed by Women for Women
Every T9 design embodies great ideas from women with decades of experience as designers and a lifetime of experience as adventurous women. Women who run, hike, camp and climb and know what it takes to get the job done right.
The design details in each pair of pants come from personal experience: loads of pockets to stash our keys and dog treats on early morning runs. Waistbands that stay comfy under backpacks. Technical fabrics that move and stretch as we scramble up boulders. That’s what we mean by “designer label.”

Hey Design Ladies! A+…I am in love with the Clamber pant. Please make the short length in more colors. I will be ordering the Clamber capri and shorts as a Christmas present to myself. Keep up the great work!
