        Comments about REI Mistral Pants - 32" Inseam:

        I love these pants and wear them everywhere, all year round. I use them for almost all outdoor activities, but they look enough like normal pants that I also wear them around town and to work as well because they are so comfortable. I like them so much I bought another pair.

        They are breathable in high exertion activities, yet they always keep you warm enough when at rest. They stretch, allowing for great freedom of movement, and are also very durable. I use them for rock climbing on cold or windy days and they have so far been immune to abrasion.

        They block out the wind and are water resistant, shedding off snow or a light drizzle easily. And if they do get wet from a downpour, they dry off fast, generally under an hour. In winter weather, just wear a pair of REI midweight long underwear and you will be set for insulation.

        Don't wear them if you expect to be out in rain for prolonged periods, or in an activity where pants get exposed to a lot of wetness like kayaking or downhill skiing-for that go with waterproof pants. For everything else, these pants will be great.

            Comments about REI Mistral Pants - 32" Inseam:

            I bought a pair of these when I was visiting Seattle and was so utterly chuffed with them that I ordered another pair when I got home to UK, which is quite a compliment considering the vast extra cost and hassle involved. I practically live in them from late Autumn to early Spring. The plus points have been well covered in other reviews [@]: very comfortable, very hard wearing, reasonably trouser-like in appearance, not waterproof but they dry out quick.. I guess I wear them instead of jeans except they're vastly harder wearing and more comfortable.The reason I'm writing this review is that I'm going to order another couple of pairs despite knowing the following downsides going in:- Because of the material, the waistband can sag untidily across the big gap between the front two belt loops. REI could fix this by putting the frontmost left loop right up close to the fly.- The pants have two sewn back pockets which I find useless, and three much more useful fromt pockets which are glued (!). The glue deteriorated over time. I need to get mine oversewn at a tailor's. I did email REI with a photo of this decay and asking for advice on repair but no reply (odd, I usually find them very helpful).REI should save the cost of the back pockets and make all the others fully sewn and do something about the belt loops.Great pants tho.

            Comments about REI Mistral Pants - 32" Inseam:

            The Mistral is lightweight and comfortable and excels in activities like hiking, cycling, and rock climbing. I use them for back-country nordic skiing in warmer weather and I've even faked business casual at the office with the addition of a nice button-up.

            The front pockets don't interfere with a harness. The material is stretchy so it's great for rock climbing and cycling. I added a button and loop near the ankle that gathered the material to work better as a cycling pant. The leg zips can be used to allow the legs to be rolled up in warm weather. Overall, it's the most versatile outdoor pant I've owned.

              Comments about REI Mistral Pants - 32" Inseam:

              I bought a new pair in December 2011 and this is my third pair of Mistral Pants. I've had the two perevious versions. The first pair I bought, maybe 4 years ago was nothing much to write about, it was not durable. The second pair had greatly improved fabric. This pair's fabric is improved again & seems to be on par with the Schoeller Dryskin fabric found in the REI Acme pants, though thinner & lighter.

                Comments about REI Mistral Pants - 32" Inseam:

                I bought these in colorado over thanksgiving. I had been looking for a good pair of hiking pants for a while and was somewhat hesitant to spend that much money. They are worth every penny.
                I attempted to summit pikes peak a day or two after thanksgiving. Conditions past the tree line were less than ideal. −10 F and 65 mph winds. I was wearing Patagonia thermals under the pants and was perfectly warm and comfortable.. I was pleasantly surprised.
                They look good - are somewhat form fitting.
                The stretchiness is not obvious by looking at them, but is wonderful on steep terrain.
                I highly recommend these pants.

                  These pants do it all! I mostly wear them when rock climbing and after punishing them on rough rock faces I've found they are very durable. They are also surprisingly breathable and stretchy where you need it. These pants will keep you warm and if paired with a lightweight pair of thermal underwear, you would have no problem on most ski trips or cold weather hikes. What I really love about these pants is just how comfortable they are. I tried to keep them for my climbing days, but I often find myself wearing them around town as well. I plan on getting another pair.

                    My wife & I have these for cross country skiing, with just a thermal base layer these pants will withstand all that mother can throw out, except the 30 mph wind gust's and snow blowing sideways. I just love my pants because they fit like the blue denim's I wear everyday. Lot's of front pocket room plus a zipper closure on all of the pockets. Good stuff! I can't find negatives about these pants for cross country skiing.
