Good pants, great service

Ranked #180 - Men's Hiking and Climbing Pants
July 9, 2009
So far, I have only worn these pants on four individual day trips, but all involved scrambling on talus slopes in the Montana Rocky Mountains. Initially, I had trouble with the main zipper, but appreciated the prompt exchange process for a replacement pair in time for my next trip. I bought the medium size, which fits my 6-foot, 170 pound body very well. The stretch is in the long direction, which means they do not bind at the knees when climbing. The pants are lightweight, seem pretty tough, have zippered pockets that function well, and the zip-off legs are labled L and R for no-hassle use. Despite the lower zippers on the legs, I still had to take off my hiking boots to remove and replace the legs.

How wind/water resistant are these pants? I'm thinking of buying these in the non-convertable version - would these be ok for snowshoeing/XC skiing with maybe a baselayer underneath?

Badger, these pants would work, although I would recommend the Goyko pant by Millet. They are 3XDRY Schoeller, tough fabric, great stretch, and comfortable fit. If you have further questions, please email me directly as I am the sales rep for the Rocky Region for Millet and would love to hear from you! valerie@lafumausa,com
