Mountain Hardwear Matterhorn Convertible Pant - Men's

Item #MHW1725 | 78 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Tough and Comfortable

By Ranked #684 - Men's Hiking and Climbing Pants April 25, 2009

So I've only had these pants for a little while, but so far I can't seem to get over how soft and relatively light the fabric is, while seemingly being very durable. The fabric is kind of on the thicker end of nylon canvas (hence durable) so they might get hot in the summer, but then you got the option of going convertible - awesome. The sizing is a smidge big for me, the medium is a bit big but the small would be too tight in the waist and thighs (I'm blessed with tree trunk thick legs, but I'm pretty short at the same time); however, this isn't really MHW fault as much as my genes. I got them on major discount, because anything over $40/$50 is just ridiculous for nylon pants. The moondust color is like a light-medium grey. I'm an admittedly open MHW fanatic, but since they make afforable gear (in comparison with other brands), that's uber durable and uber dope I think it's warranted, but you might want to keep it in mind.
