I received these pants as a Christmas gift and they are really cool! Unfortunately, even after doing extensive research on sizing and referring to the size chart, they were too small. I am usually a US size 27 or 4 in pants, which means I should be 36, but they were pretty dang tight around my upper thigh and could barely button them. Also, I received a "short," which was not specified when choosing a size.
I spoke with a Backcountry employee and she said that they only carry the "short" length because the pants run longer than most other pants. Unfortunately for me, I usually am between a "regular" or "long" in length, so these pants were too short for me as well. I will now be returning these pants and buying directly from Fjallraven so I can get my correct size.
Other than sizing issues, these pants seem awesome! I got the Tarmac/Dark Olive color and they look very nice. The darker parts are a durable, stiffer material, while the lighter parts are a super stretchy material, making them flexible and durable in the parts that need it.
Now that I have received the correct size, which turned out to be a 40 (which is the equivalent to a 10, what the heck?!?!) they fit great and I am very excited to actually use them!
