Outdoor Research Furio Pant - Men's
rips easily

Ranked #1671 - Men's Ski Pants

These pants are comfortable and look great, but the durability is poor. I've ripped them twice and the second time is clearly a design flaw. They ripped 10 inches down the right leg from the zipper seam when I leaped across a creek. The stitching is a single thin row and the fabric just ripped away.
Come on these aren't pajamas, they need to withstand a little seam stress! Maybe the OR designers are expecting you to only wear them posing in a Seattle coffee shop.
