The BEST Pants Ever!
By Steve Tibbitts
Ranked #390 - Men's Softshell Pants
March 11, 2009
I've been using these things for a while now, mainly for alpine climbing, and they're amazing! They move extremely well. They are well proportioned in every different are of the pants...ie. side zips, gaitors. OR really thought out the ventilation of these pants with the thigh zips that work extremely well. I read before I purchased them that the pockets were too small but I thought of the alternative of having large pockets and trying to find things with cold fingers or thin gloves on and felt that having smaller pockets was much better than not being able to find anything. The one thing you might look at, depending on your waist, is to pick up some suspenders from OR. My waist was a bit too small for large's but I needed the length so suspenders are working out really well! By far my most used and favorite pants in the collection!
