Arc’teryx has partnered with Skip, a Google X Labs spinoff, to create the MO/GO hiking pants, which are designed to make hiking less strenuous. The pants have a lightweight electric motor at the knee that can enhance leg strength and are now available for pre-order for $4,500, with shipping expected in late 2025.
$4,500 exoskeleton like pants that claim to reduce perceived weight by 30lb.
