Great lightweight but durable pant. Wore in 35-50 F temps and wasn’t sweaty or cold. I have bigger thighs compared to my waist and this pant just ultimately didn’t work for me. I sized up and while the thigh area fit, the waist was too large. The drawstring to cinch the waist was useful except it kept getting loose again throughout my climb and I needed to constantly re-cinch it. The cinch is a small piece of string in the inner right pocket and seems cheap, like it could break off eventually. Ultimately returning these pants.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just love the fit in the upper thigh, roomy but not baggy. I can cinch in the waist that's hidden in the pocket, solving a problem I've had with many pants, they fit in the leg but not the waist. I was able to get a short length too. Articulated knees and gusseting mean no pinchy spots. Perfect fit! I plan on hiking a lot in these.
I love the light weight and durability of these pants. These pants are my most favorite pants I have ever purchased. I had to exchange these pants for a size 2, when I initially purchased a size 4. I feel they run big, but was so worth it to exchange.
i love the fit of these pants . i wear them hiking with long johns under and even just around running errands. I did expect a light winter lining and would very much like this exact pant slightly warmer!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these pants! Lightweight, well-designed, slim but not tight. I'd love to see these in more colors, and or a similarly cut style with slash pockets!
Great pants for climbing and hiking. Very flexible and stretchy. Although they are lightweight, seem very durable.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gifted these pants to my daughter in love and she loves them! She used them for work as well as for hiking.
Great pair of pants. I wear these in the scorching Texas heat! Very form fitting
Bought these in a size 4 but ultimately had to exchange them for size 2.
