Gear Review
From the Backcountry to the Bar
By Ty Nelson
Ranked #450 - Men's Softshell Pants
December 18, 2009
These pants perform very well. They are light, breathable, stretchable, they shed water, and they hold up well to abrasion. I recently replaced my standard nylon hiking pants with these, and couldn't believe the difference. The range of motion while wearing these is nearly the same as not wearing pants at all! Simply put these are now my default pants when heading out to the backcountry. In addition to their function, these pants also have form. They look good enough to wear out. They are a classy chocolate brown color and don't look to techy. The fit is good. I am 6'3" 185lbs, i usually wear 34" waist, and i got a Large. Could have used an inch or so more in length, but it is not really noticeable.
