Sierra Designs Microlight Pant - Men's

The lightweight and water-resistant Sierra Designs Men’s Microlight Pant blocks wind and moisture on in-town bike commutes or muddy splashes and light rain on long day hikes. This polyester pant packs up small in the included stuff sack, and disappears in your pack until things get wet. The elastic waistband lets you pull it on over your hiking pants, and the two zippered hand pockets hold your pocket knife and energy bar.

Bottom Line: Light weather resistance for in town or on the trail.

Okay, so I borrowed a pair from a friend. The dog decided to make a chew toy out of if so I need to replace these pants. I don't know which model type he purchased so need some help.

There is one pocket on the right leg. There are two numbers on the label - one is Rn 60918 and Ca 10497.

Can you tell me with this information which model I need to order?

Sierra Designs Microlight Pant review

By: Backcountry.com Employee
May 6, 2009

The Sierra Designs Microlight Pant is a great pair of pants for many reasons. First, it is packable to the size of about a 16 oz beer can and weighs next to nothing. Second, they fit well and doesnt run small or large. It has draw strings on the waist that makes it a good fit and to prevent the pants from sliding down. It is also inexpensive, and you get your moneys worth. They are also a very comfortable pair of pants. When they are not packed in my backpack, I hang them by my door so when I need to take the garbage out and I am my boxers, I have something quick to throw on so I don't scare my neighbors.

However, I had never been stuck in a downpour with these pants, only light showers and misty/drizzly mornings. That is until several weeks ago when the skies opened up and let me have it. Granted it kept a lot of the water out, my legs underneath the pants did get wet, which I was surprised as I had thought it was completely waterproof. I am happy I know that now.

In the future, if I am going for a hike and see heavy rain in the forecast, I may opt for a more sturdy pair of rain pants, but if its just showers, Ill bring these without hesitation.
