Great Pants!

Written on Jul 08, 2015

I've worn these pants on one backcountry trip now. They have a nice stretchy feel and, at least for now, are reasonably waterproof. The fabric is a little heavier than standard quick-dry hiking pants, which may be a negative if you're expecting hot weather, but a positive otherwise.

I did scratch my leg against a rough boulder, which scraped up some skin through the pants, but the pants themselves didn't have a mark. I think a lot of other pants would have been the worse for that.

Keeps the sun off

Does the job of keeping the sun off.

Did what they needed too

Written on Nov 07, 2014

These did exactly what they needed to. They were easy to get on and they stayed on. I got these because I wear trail runners and the gaiter's loop under the shoe is thin -- I was worried gaiters with a thicker loop would stick out through the tread. However, because of this I fear breakage of the loop over time. I'll probably buy backup loops for this eventuality.

Warm and compact

This is a nice lightweight insulating layer for backpacking. It also serves as a nice pillow when camping!
