Very standard climbing pant but that's awesome. These fit a little trimmer, I wouldn't call them slim but there's a bit less material so they drape better and feel more nimble on the wall. There are also a lot of great details, the left thigh zip pocket and right back both have low volume zippers for keeping a phone secure when climbing and I really like the locking mechanism for the cuff drawstrings. The fabric feels like a solid in between of natural and synthetic allowing it to dry quickly, but also feel good against the skin. I mainly use these for multi pitch trad climbs and at the office browsing mountain project.
Contrary to the hoodie and jackets I bought, pants are too short for tall people (6. 36 feet). They didn't reach my ankles until I did some additional sewing.
Nice water repellent pant with pockets in right places. Lightweight. Good for spring and summer. Needs thermal underwear if worn in cold.
Absolutely perfect for climbing. Super soft and comfortable yet mad durable. The fit is good. Overall 10/10 pants.
These pants are so comfortable. Nice amount for stretch for climbing.
