REI Co-op  Trailmade Barrel Pants - Women's

I really like the relaxed fit of this barrel-leg. I'm a bit short and stocky at 5' /160lb so the wide leg works great for ease of movement. I got a Large and wear them pretty high on my waist for a full-length look (where taller folks would probably get a cropped look). I have other thin REI pants without a belt that I can slip on and off; while the built-in belt on these requires unbuckeling for removal, the belt gives my waist a bit of shape. I've worn these on a casual stroll through the Farmer's market and while building a fence and stuffing tools in the pockets and utility loop - they were perfect for both. The thin material and mesh pockets are likely perfect for packing and a quick wash and dry. I'll likely look at purchasing in an additional color!

Great lightweight hiking pants. The waistband design easily accommodates a variety of waste sizes and shapes with a combination of elastic and adjustable clip (as well as a button). The fit is such that movement is unrestricted and comfortable allowing me to squat down or stretch my legs wide across varying terrain. I’m on the shorter side at about 5’2” and found the length quite suitable. Sizing runs a little big; if you are between sizes I suggest sizing down but I generally appreciate the roominess. And plenty of pockets for carrying a phone or snack, etc.

If I could rate them a 3.5, that's really the rating I'd like to give. While I like the fit and barrel leg construction, the material itself is very thin and has stayed wrinkled even after hanging it up for a few days, which doesn't bode well for travel purposes. The REI cardboard paper thing on the waist was sewn in left a little damage when removing the threads. I've already had a little trouble with releasing the included belt buckle - I have to press it hard to release. For such a costly pant, I would hope that REI would offer comparable quality. I'll still be wearing them (especially in summer), but just wanted to give a heads-up re: quality and expense.

Best pants I have used in such a long time! Comfortable, cute and practical! These are perfect from street to trail and back again. I found myself wanting to wear them around the house and to travel in as well. They were high waisted and the length / color was great. Didnt retain smell but were lightweight and easy to pack! More of these please!!

These pants fit me SO WELL! I’m a petite person (5 ft 1 in, 115#) with a small waist, a long torso, and average hips (but my hips sit very low). These have a super high rise, which means they sit at my natural waist. But they drape well so it doesn’t look like I’m wearing a tent. The belt is very comfy and helpful (I wear it fairly tight because my natural waist is small). As a short person with short legs, the XS petite is perfect for me and hits right above the ankle which is very flattering. If any of my proportions sound similar to yours, would definitely try these. I wish they had black or other cool colors- sadly am not an earth tones girlie. I will be buying a second pair of the blue ones!

Overall, I really like the look and fit of these pants. Like another person said, the tag that is stitched to the waistband leaves holes when removed. Seems unnecessary to attach it like that as it forces you to damage the pants to remove. I wish the material on the inside of the waistband was softer. I am 5'4 135lb athletic build and the small petite fits great! Make these in black please!

I love these pants from REI! I love the neutral color "Cremini". These pants are lightweight and a great alternative to when I don't want to wear fitted leggings. Tons of pockets makes it easier to get out the door and not have to worry about forgetting something. The one thing on these pants that I wish was better was the belt. It's like a clip clasp type of closure and I have the hardest time pushing the pieces inward then pushing the little clip button down at the exact time to release. Takes me a lot time embarrassingly but I do love that there is a belt option so didn't remove any stars.

I am 5’3” 120lbs with short legs/long torso and these fit like an absolute dream in an XS. Unbelievably flattering, the high waist sits right at my natural waist and length hits right at ankle.

Shipping service was great--the product is what I call "mall shopping" pants--too lightweight and it doesn't stand up to real trail conditions--I won't buy again or recommend as trail pants.

I do love the fit and style of the pants, but boy are they short! I am 5’7” and ordered L Tall from what the model reflected and they hit above the ankle. Just something to be prepared for.
