I was only concerned that these may not breath, and they my be too tight fitting.....then I went to the Prana site to see an image where they appeared very relaxed.....I am crazy hard on soft goods and expect diverse performance. Bought all three colors last summer and am LOVING them. They are baggy so you don't look like you stole your girlfriends knickers.....but not too baggy (getting caught on everything). I have not been able to tear these things yet on the boulders, and they don't bunch up on me when I'm in my harness!!!! I mountain bike in them all the time and they breath amazing. I kick around town in them a lot--I throw a button up on for my top and actually look well dressed instead of homeless when I head into the pub after a sweet session.
SIZING: I am 5'11" and 200 lbs--no fat--am a 34" in the waist but usually buy 36" to keep from binding when climbing....I actually went for the XL in these and they fit PERFECT.....just had to cinch up the waist adjust 2" and it still doesnt look bulky in the waist--i like a looser fit though....i could have pulled off the large but didn't want to look like the guys who stole their g-friends knickers and walk around with they're man purse.
