Outdoor Research Mentor Pant - Men's
I wanted to buy arc'teryx....

I hate buying stuff from China. For a thousand reasons that I won't go into. I would much rather buy all my clothing from Arc'teryx (although even their low-end stuff is made in China now). On the other hand these pants fit the bill. Full length zippers to get off when you have your double plastic boots on with crampons. They seem a little delicate, but very light. These companies are responding to the "lighter!" call we as consumers give them. I think with items like this, it is getting to be overkill. One rip on Denali and you'll be cursing them forever.
