How to Choose Hiking Pants

Choose a pant fit

Standard: consistent width from top to bottom
Slim: tighter to the leg
Relaxed or wider: fits loosely throughout the thighs, knees and calves

What material do you prefer?

Synthetic

Polyester: affordable, stretchy, doesn't wrinkle
Nylon: durable, abrasion-resistant, less stretch
Spandex: stretchy, moves easily, less breathable

Natural fibers

Cotton: durable, breathable, dries slowly
Wool: stretchy, durable, odor-resistant, pricier
Hemp: durable, renewable, can feel rougher

Consider additional features like:

Moisture wicking: moves moisture (namely, sweat) to the outer surface while also drying quickly
Pockets: help carry items you want to have accessible
Sun-protective fabric: a higher UPF rating provides better sun protection
Convertible: can be worn full-length or as shorts
Insect repellent: pants treated with insect-repellent coatings can help keep pests off

Favorite Pants Ever – Skinny Guy

Matthew G

6 years ago

Right to the point… I’m tall and skinny (6’1” 130 lbs.) and these pants fit like a dream! Also, you can actually move in these pants! I am an avid rock climber with a very flexible style of climbing and because of my climbing style, I had always opted to wear shorts. But now that I have discovered these pants, I can have equal freedom of movement in either my stretch zions or shorts. These pants are also very packable and look great even after being stuffed in a backpack for several days. Oh and one final comment, the pocket on the leg has a top access zipper and this cool side zipper that makes it really nice when you are crammed in an airplane or bus.

Great pants I’m sure for someone, but not me

I wanted so badly to like these pants, because In some ways they are great. For example, I do love the feel, look, and functionality of these pants. However, what I don’t like is the false sizing, the pointless clip buttons for cuffing pants, and how frail the material really is. I purchased two pairs sized as 32x30, but there was something so off about them. After some time, I decided to just put them side by side and found that one pair was and inch or so short than the other and a few centimeters thinner in the legs. I called prana to see what’s up with this, and they told me that the dye alters the pants in the production process. This means there is an issue with the production of the pants, and they are aware of it. A 32x30 should fit like a 32x30. Next, the buttons used for cuffing the pants are pointless. Just cuff or role pants normally. It will frustrate you trying to line up the cuff just to use this feature. They also randomly catch on stuff. Third, the material is NOT anti abrasive. I was disappointed to find them pilling in the crotch region within just a few months. We are talking about nylon here, and it felt as if the crotch was going to blow out. Get the Khul renegade pants instead

My boyfriend and I are getting more into hiking lately, and with an upcoming outdoor park internship I have, we’ve been grabbing a few more pieces of attire! He has super muscular legs and is picky about his pants, but he loves these (and his butt looks so cute in em! he even won a best butt poll on Instagram in these pants, so it was a popular opinion) For a guy that cares about his looks and is worried about sweating through a pair of pants, these are for you! They have a nice, tapered leg, and very flattering fit! These pants were so flexible and kept him dry the entire day! Worth the splurge for sure.

Size 32x32 fits excellent on my 160lbs 6ft frame. The pants dry quickly and have just the right amount of stretch. I wore them for 3 days straight in late May in the BWCA. With or without underwear these pants are comfortable. Pockets hold what you need without concern of dropping anything. Integrated belt makes it easy to leave your belt at home or add your full belt to clip on more gear. Excellent for portaging to paddling. Had a few slips with the canoe over my head where I collided with rocks and the pants provided great protection for legs against rocks and muck. I’ll buy another pair for my paddle pal.

I have been searching for the perfect pair of midnight hiking and climbing pants and I'm pretty darn sure these are it. These babies kept me cool and comfortable for 10 straight days trekking 40 miles from Lukla to the base camp of Mt. Everest. Despite 10 days of continuous wear, splashes of mud, light rains, and a healthy coating of trail dust, they never appeared dirty or worn. They breathe well, are incredibly comfortable with a phenomenal range of motion. Countless stops and sitting on rough raggedy rocks along the Khumjung pass Trail and not a single loose thread or visible abrasion. This fabric is comfortable and very durable. Well constructed pants with reinforced triple seams and double layered fabric in key wear areas. I will 100% be purchasing more pairs to add to my arsenal. Cannot recommend them more highly. 10/10

Wore a single pair of these as my base layer pants for 3 months in Patagonia and they held up better than I could have imagined. They almost perfectly handled the nonstop daily abuse from bushwhacking through endless calafate spines, blizzards and storms, scrambling up rocky faces, and the consistent abrasion from our glacier rig. The only real sign of wear was from the broken zippers on the side pocket that got ripped, but I couldn't care less because they're still completely usable without that pocket. Overall, such dope pants and will continue to buy more after my current couple of pairs are destroyed.

I finally found a pair of pants that are long enough for my stilt-legs and aren't baggy! Good pocket options. I like that they have 2 rear pockets instead of just one, or none with some other brands. The thigh pocket is great with 2 zipper options. The length of the inseam is perfect. I'm 5'10" and wear a 32"-34" inseam in pants. The 32" in these are perfect for me. They run skinny, so they won't work for you guys with tree-trunk thighs. The material is a little thicker than I like for summer hikes, but they will be just right for cooler weather.

I've always loved the material Zion pant but my one complaint was the fit. The original Zion was extremely loose fitting, especially towards the bottom of the pant leg. The new Zion Straight retains all the features I love about the original Zion, yet has a fantastic slim cut all the way down to the bottom of the leg. In my opinion, these are the best overall, hiking, fishing, hunting pants out there for the money. Sizing seams spot on as well, unlike other Prana models which can run a little long on the inseam.

I love these pants. They are made of a medium weight, durable material and seem well-constructed. I'm a skinny 5' 6" and got the 30/30. They fit well, so if you are even slightly more robust, you might want to get the "baggy" version. That said, on a cold morning in the mountains recently I was able to pull these over long underwear. My only complaint is about the limit in sizes. I would really like a 30/31 so that the pant comes down farther over my boots, but they (and almost no one else, I guess) cut inseams in one inch increments, which is ridiculous. The two inches between, say, 30" and 32" is significant! Nevertheless I am going to buy another pair. I might try the "baggy" version though.

I'm 6'0 175 lbs and 61 yrs old. Purchased the 32x34, and I gotta say I'm wondering if I can pull these off at my age. My wife thinks they look fine, but they are borderline in the thighs as far as fit, great in the waist and length. I'm a runner and always thought I had bird legs as all my other full cut hiking pants are overly baggy. Bottom line is, I'm starting to like the fit,and I enjoy wearing them. Like many others reviewers here I really love these pants and even though I haven't had them long enough to comment on durability the quality is really good and would recommend them.
