Ranked #529 - Men's Softshell Pants
September 25, 2009
I've been wearing these while training for my Nepal trip. They will be good for low-land trekking and will also be good under my waterproof pants up above Namche Bazaar. They are still too short though. I went up to medium to get a little more inseam, but even that is a little short. I also wish there was a way to tighten the waistband. I hate to wear a belt when I carry a full pack.

I had the waist on mine taken in by the seamstress at the dry cleaners. It costs 20 dollars or so.
