Awesome, but could use some changes

These pants are pretty awesome -- I've never had a pair with more stretch which makes them great for climbing. Love the snaps for rolling the pant legs up, they don't stay up without them. They are super comfortable & flattering but I definitely would change a few things:
--the sizing is really off in my opinion. I'm 5'5" 150 lbs & have always worn a medium in any brand of pant, so I ordered the medium in these. They were extremely form-fitting around the legs & butt to the point that I felt uncomfortable -- I exchanged them for the large, which definitely fits better but is slightly baggy in the crotch & pretty big in the waist.
--the description states that these pants have two pockets in the back, two in the front & one cargo. I don't know about the rest of you, but mine don't have front pockets & I wish they did. I like having the two traditional front slash pockets (like the men's version has) for quickly stashing items & because I like to put my hands in my pockets.
All in all, the good definitely outweighs the bad, but i hope that Backcountry makes some changes to the next version of these awesome pants!
