Is it worth getting the new Beta AR pant? I have this model, but the 2010 has a slightly different material that feels softer and has more of a stretch to it. Do you think I should upgrade to the latest model? I did just get the 2010 Beta AR jacket, and i love it. I am just having a hard time deciding on whether its worth it.

Depends how old and how worn your old pants are. I would be more concerned if its still breathable and water repellant- than how soft they feel. These pants are built to last, So if you have taken good care of them- you can keep em for a few more years and use that hard earned money on a nice softshell........
