Absolutely bad
1 year ago
I bought this pants and it’s almost unwearable only three month after. The fabric is really not of good quality. Several holes appeared on the top of the thigh and a pocket is totally torned off at the back of the pants. The fit is great but don’t expect it to last more than a season. I’m a climbing guide,I’ve been buying Arc’teryx products for the last 20 years and the product quality has drastically deteriorated. I had a issu with a Gore-Tex jacket last year and these pants are probably the last product I’ll buy from Arc’teryx. I don’t recommend these pants.

Compared to the older versions of the Konseal Pant, these are a bit of a downgrade sadly. The addition of more synthetic fibers can be a + or a - depending on taste, but the biggest shame is that with the change in material, the fit has changed. The previous versions a slimmer fit that easily slid under a harness and was easy to wear to the gym, crag, or simply casually in more urban environments. Depending on one's preference, the older version which sported more cotton into the textile, was arguably more comfortable next-to-skin while offering great mobility with the gussets. All in all, the previous versions were a more superior pair of pants.

Arc'teryx Men's Konseal Pants Review

I took these on a couple of hikes and they quickly became a favorite. They are incredibly comfortable, breathable, and move with you without feeling restrictive. The water resistance is excellent as light rain and splashes just bead off effortlessly. They look good enough for everyday wear yet perform exactly how you want on the trail. Honestly I have no flaws to point out. These pants simply do everything right.

petroleum-based plastic fabric - thumbs down
1 year ago
Very disappointed with the switch from cotton to plastic. Why did you ruin the best designed climbing pants on the market? Natural fabrics are the most skin friendly (and the most earth friendly), not the petroleum-based ones. if you want to poison your blood with micro plastics there are plenty of other plastic climbing pants out there also ... these pants make lots of noise when you move ! Bring the cotton back ! PS - According to the CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) over 346 million barrels of oil are used every year to make synthetic fabrics like polyester, nylon and acrylic. Food for thought.

Great for outdoor climbing

Overall I'm pleased with these new pants. They are strechy and comfy. They are a tad wider than the previous model. But they're not baggy nor do they restrict your view on your feet. My only disappointment is that Arc completely scrapped the cotton based pants for these. Oh yeah… we need more flashy colors!

Not a fan of the material

I have two pairs of the old cotton blend Konseal pants, and they are perfect. Was hoping this would just be a stretchy version of the same. The cut here is slightly baggier, especially at the cuff. Which is a negative for my use, the close cuffs were a key feature of the old ones. The biggest issue for me though is the material. It's that 'old school' rubber, noisy material that isn't comfortable, and is very swishy. It also feels quite heavy in comparison to the old, I thought this would be a more lightweight material. It feels thick and stiff due to it's rubbery nature.

Comfy and Stretchy

I first owned the Konseal shorts and loved them so I had to add the pants. The material is light and stretchy making these pants very comfortable for everyday wear. I have an Italy trip coming up and I bet they make great travel pants, not only for 10+ hours on the plane but for hiking and sightseeing as well. I guess I'll find out! I'll be bringing my Konseal shorts and Cormac hoodies as well. My only wish is that they had a button at the waist instead of a snap.

Solid pant, fits large

Overall pretty good pants. I've used them for indoor and outdoor bouldering and sport climbing. Side pocket is big enough to hold a couple of phones. The inclusion of back pockets is questionable, as any hard item will cause pinching and limit mobility, but could be handy if wearing it around town before heading to the crag. It's been fairly durable, I've noticed some piling on the knees.

Great pants for climbing and casual use

Great pants for climbing and wearing around town. I purchased these in black and they provide a lot of range for movement when climbing. I purchased these in the short cut and they’re perfect. The black is nice because they work well for casual use as well.

Please stop changing this pants.

They keep changing these pants. I've been buying the Konseal pants since 2019 and they are great for a lot of things including bike commuting, casual office attire, rock climbin,g and camping. I have 2 or 3 of these pants at any point and I have to say that with the latest iteration (I know of at least 4 in the last 4 years), it is so similar to the Gamma pants that I'll stop buying them. The material has become a lot more durable, the length keeps getting longer, and the fit keeps getting looser and with more stretch. They are no longer good for commuting, and less suitable for climbing. Its looser cut also looks less sharp in the office. It has become general-use pants like the Gamma. The looser cut around the calf means they touch the bike chain. The longer and looser them also mean they get more in the way of climbing shoes. In a world where we already have Gamma, why do we need something like the gamma? One major plus is the increase in durability. Both of the original pants have ripped along with my A2B pants, but the last three version has hold up great so far.
