Arc'teryx  Gamma Pants - Men's

Expensive pants that fall apart while washing. I own 4 pairs of the gamma pants and anytime I wash them, I fear that the glued seams will fall apart. I wear them to travel, and do not have control over what kind of detergents used in other countries. They are great pants but all the glue seams will fall apart, leaving the thigh pocket useless. Any taped seams will peal. I wish I could attach photos to this review. I will no longer buy these pants again. Do not buy, unless you never plan to wash them.

My go-to choice for outdoor adventures. Whether it’s hiking, camping, or working long days in unpredictable weather, these pants deliver on every front. The fabric is tough yet flexible, offering great freedom of movement for climbing, trekking, or kneeling down without any restriction. They’re impressively weather-resistant — light rain just rolls off, and they dry fast when wet. The breathability is excellent too, keeping you comfortable even during high-output activities.

Bought these pants for hiking and they have delivered this far. Used them for an overnight backcountry trip and they were very comfortable. I always used to buy Arc’teryx pants one size bigger because they were built for tall skinny people however, by doing so, I had to return the first pair because they were too big and the second pair I bought were actually the same size as I always buy. The material is very comfortable and seems bulletproof. I really enjoy that they are a bit longer and narrow at the bottom so I don’t have to wear gaiters and nothing sneaks inside my boots while on long hikes.

Really disappointed with these pants. After a dozen or so washes the glued zipped leg pocket is coming apart. Why use glue in the first place instead of stitching? I am now going to have to pay to have these repaired/stitched locally. Another, thing these pants shrink even at a 30 degrees washing cycle and become too tight like skinny jeans. Please bring back the older version which was more comfortable and did not shrink in the was. Over the years, I have noticed that Arcteryx quality has been going downhill. Please focus on good quality outdoor wear instead of the chasing the casual market.

Excellent! If you are an athletic build ( for example I'm 5'11'', 175 lb, 38-year-old man with a 32-inch waist and 32-inch inseam) these pants are excellent. I usually use them as stand-alone or with a RHO heavyweight baselayer under them in colder conditions and they are phenomenal. They provide enough flexibility while being functional and looking good. I highly recommend. I bought both the Tanto and Black pair. I did however try last years model as they were on sale and had to return them as the 32 inch waist was too tight. This years 32 inch waist fits perfectly.

I love this pant so much, love it at first glance, comfort , look nice, stretchable, not sure about warmth but it really the best looking

They made them a slim fit but still call them regular fit. So just change the label and folks won’t be confused. For me the fit is perfect - I have thin legs.

I bought these pants as I needed a new set of hiking pants. I wore them for a 6 day trip. Both cuffs began to rip through about midway through the hike. The hike was not in rugged terrain and I see no reason why the cuffs should have sustained this much damage. Spending this amount of money for pants that can’t even survive a week of use without sustaining damage is terrible value.

I've been wearing Arcteryx gear for over 10 years and i love them. These Gamma pants are the most comfortable pants I have ever worn. They are my go-to pants. Firstly, it is nigh on impossible to find decent quality pants that are longer than 34 inch inseam as I'm 6ft 4 ins. The material is just right for all seasons , if there is a cold snap of 2 or 3 degrees C then I can wear the rho base layer comfortably underneath. I find they don't overheat in the summer either. There is a useful hem adjustment for muddy/ snow conditions. The design and shape makes them a good fit and waist size can be adjusted easily with the belt which has a useful clip and loop attachment. The clip has an hook-like end so that the belt cannot undo inadvertantly. Very thoughtful design. I find they wash well and I'm sure they will last for years to come. They are smart enough to wear at lunchtime in the pub and look good and function well on the Fell. I am currently using them hiking and scrambling and everyday use. I only wish Arcteryx made more pairs of other gamma pants and more colours in the tall 38 inch waist size.

Best pair of pants I've ever owned. I've bought six pairs to date. My only complaint is lack of color options. BRING BACK GREY PLEASE!
