Ryder Lite pants test

I'm trying Ryder Lite as a replacement for the heavier Ryder pants, which seemed to fray way too soon. I'll provide a review after I've worn them for long enough to establish their wear ability.

Runs small

I have worn the same size pants for years. Plus, exclusively Kuhl pants for over 10 years - most comfortable I have found. However, The Law and Ryder, suddenly are tight. This on top of me having picked back up running 6 months ago and lost some 10 lbs. So, at REI, I tried two other brands, both fit in the size I have always worn. --- Kuhl, what's up with the shift is sizing?

Great Ryder Pants - Just a Little Lighter

The KUHL Ryder Lite Klassik has the same great fit and function I’ve come to expect, but with a lighter fabric that makes them even more versatile. Comfortable, durable, and perfect for both everyday wear and outdoor adventures—another win from REI!

Don't buy

I ordered these as I own a few pair of Kuhl's Rydr jeans. Completely different fit. No stretch and runs small. Had to return. If this was stated in your description I would not have purchased.Thanks REI for charing me $7.99 for the return. I will not be buying from REI again.

Some Kuhl pants have unexpected leg length.

My normal Kuhl pants are size 33x32. I ordered these in size 34x32 because some reviews said there would be shrinkage (the pants are mostly cotton). On arrival, the pant leg was WAY to long. I washed the pants twice to get shrinkage. After washing the waist was better, but the seat of the pants were more baggy than my normal 33x32 Kuhl pants. And the pant leg was still too long. I returned these to REI.

Holy grail

All of Khul's pants in Klasic and full fit are incredible. I use them for just about anything from working around the farm, forestry field work, SAR to going out on the town. I'm blown away by the durability as they last way longer than anything from Carhartt or similar work style brands. The pocket layouts are always perfect as they don't end up making you look too tactical or like you're wearing European style outdoor pants making them incredibly versatile.

New Product Design is First Rate

This is my 2nd Ryder Lite Purchase in the last 2 months. The new design includes a conventional jeans type metal button clasp in lieu of the snap.This is a huge improvement. The jeans material remains durable and the lightweight will prevent overheating on warmer days. Waist and inseam are true and consistent with kohl products. I find the cut/fit to be roomy but not baggy. Kohl, please add more colors and use that button on all your jeans.

Great balance between sporty look and comfort

I love the Rydr series, that's what started my journey with Kuhl. So when they came out with the Lite version I had to give them a try. What excites me about this series is that I can wear them almost year round and be happy. Another breakthrough for me was the sporty fit with just enough stretch to make them comfortable. As usual they look good and the fabric quality is very nice.

Great casual pant

These are a very casually designed pant. They look great but are more baggy through the legs than many of the Kuhl pants that I own. I would not wear these in my casual work office environment, they are more of a night out, coaching kids, parent on the sidelines, weekend pant for me. I appreciate the nice construction and the fact that they have great color selection.

Ryder Lite pants are GTG

Wonderful pants, great fit, I liked them so much I bought a second pair. The cut, the little bit of stretch, the gussets, the lined waistband, all great. I love the new button which is a huge upgrade over the snap. I wish the heel had reinforcements like some of the other models. I also wish there were no reflectors (which I cut off as best I could).
