Sizing Notes

Measurements are stated in inches unless otherwise indicated. Size chart values represent body measurements, not garment measurements. Some women's pants are available in petite and tall sizes. Typically petite sizes fit women 4'11" to 5'3". Regular sizes fit women 5'4" to 5'8". Tall sizes fit women 5'9" to 5'11".

PETITE: Generally, as compared to regular sizes, petite sizes are 2.5 inches shorter in inseam, 1 inch shorter in body length, 1.25 inches shorter in sleeve length and ¾ inch shorter in total rise.

TALL: tall sizes are 3 inches longer in inseam, 2 inches longer in body length, 2.5 inches longer in sleeve length and 1.25 inches longer in total rise.

Capri or cropped pants have an intentionally shorter inseam—reference the technical specs instead of this chart.

Inseam is measured to the floor.

Savanna Trails pants (plus sizing)
WAcampfishhike

Ordered on-line with "fingers crossed". I ordered a size up from what I probably needed, as I prefer NOT to wear skin-tight hiking pants. I added a belt to keep them in position even when pockets were filled with phone, keys and other "heavy" items. The fabric feels SOoooo good on the skin, breathable, smooth, not clingy, and I couldn't wait to wear them again the next day! While the fabric is thin to enhance wicking, quick drying, breathability and so on, it didn't feel too delicate. I haven't gone off-trail through really thick/rough brush yet, but the fabric has held up well to tall "grasses" etc. The "stretch" offered by the fabric, including waistband, feels "soft".. ie: not compressive or at all restrictive for motion when walking, bending/kneeling/sitting. Re: the front pockets.. they are nice and deep, wide, and slightly gusseted to allow for thicker items as-needed, so a phone fit very nicely with plenty of room for other items as well. I haven't used the back pockets yet, but with my pants being slightly "over-sized, they should be fairly easy to access and able to hold items without being restrictive as well. As I mentioned, I COULD have fit into a smaller size, but with mail ordering an unfamiliar item, I wanted as many options for use as possible, including the ability to wear a thermal layer underneath if needed... thermal tights, merino base layer bottoms and so on. These pants will be able to do that while still remaining unrestrictive and comfortable. * While these pants are described as hiking pants, I could see them working very well for canoe/kayak paddling, SUP's, float tubes and other swim-fin powered inflatable "boats" and warm weather wading/fishing. I will likely use mine "in the water" for fishing. I'd buy these again at regular price, but having purchased on SALE? A GREAT value! :D

Too big

This thin quick-dry fabric would be great for hot humid weather. Unfortunately the 20W is too big for me. I thought I read the size chart carefully, but they're huge. (I have 40 inch waist, 45 inch hips.) I'll be returning them.

Reliably comfortable!

4 years ago

I had already bought a green pair and a kaki pair so I knew what I was doing when I got these. I just needed more of these. I am sick of wearing clothes that are uncomfortable and I won't do it anymore. So once I found that these were so great, I had to have more. They are light weight, and tough, great for when you have to hike a construction site in the middle of the day in the middle of the summer. And if you want to wear them in the winter, just put a pair of long underwear underneath. I love them!

Great lightweight comfortable pant.

3 years ago

I run hot and don't like thick bulky pants. I love the lightweight feature of this pant. Runs a tiny bit big - I can wear 18 more snug but with stretch it's fine and 20's with a belt. It's the perfect pant. I've had mine a year and need to order more due to the threading unraveling abit in areas. But they haven't pulled apart. Im kinda rough on my pants. I'm buying MORE!!

Great in the rain!

2 years ago

I just hiked 3+ miles in rain conditions from sprinkles to a steadier downpour, and the pants repelled water and stayed dry. They are very comfortable, but they do run large in the waist. I ordered a 20W, and with the elastic in the back, I can pull them on and off without unzipping them or unbuttoning the button. I ordered a belt, and they’re fine with that. I didn’t want to exchange them for a smaller size because I like the way they fit in the seat and thighs. I’m short, so I like the draw cords at the ankles to keep them short, too. I wish there were more colors. The sale price was great.

Most Comfortable Pants Ever

5 years ago

I ordered one pair just to check the fit, pretty much perfect. And the most comfortable pants I think I’ve ever work. I quickly ordered two more colors.

Extremely thin

3 years ago

I was expecting something a bit thicker when I bought these but these are very thin and act like a shell. Bought them to go hiking in the snow and these are definitely not it. The fabric is meant for going over the tops of leggings or another base layer but definitely not for colder weather, very much a warm weather pant. I was so excited because they are one of the few pants that actually fit someone in my size but I will be returning and finding something that is thicker and not a shell.

Good pants for hiking

For true to size, not feature and color. I will say the material is thinner than I expected, not bad just noticed it.

Would recommend

Great pants. I’m just starting out, and am not looking to go for the higher priced items. Very comfortable. I only wish the elastic waistband were stronger. Would be nice to have more color options.

Hiking Comfort

These pants are wonderful. I'm short, but with hiking boots they are good, and I'm chonky, but they feel good on my waist. Love the zippered pockets, hiked 8 miles and never felt uncomfortable.
