Extremely Disappointed-Do NOT Recommend

I was incredibly disappointed to find that after just 3 light hiking uses of the Arc'teryx Women's Zeta SL Pants, there was a significant hole in the seat of the pants that has rendered this Gor-Tex product useless (see image). It is clearly a manufacturing error (which I hope is a unique case) of faulty material and build that weakened the structure of the pants in that area. As such, I sent my product complaint back at the beginning of April asserting the warranty coverage. I am truly shocked and incredibly disappointed at what poor customer service I received for the quality and price of $250 I paid. I was ignored for 4 months until I sent a follow up email, to which the reply was that I can buy a new one. I have been treated with more respect from companies of apparently lesser quality. I was unable to use these pants in my hiking for the second half of the spring and all summer due to Arc'teryx's lack of ownership for their own poor quality.

Super Light, Super Waterproof Rain Pants

The Zeta SLs are great ultralight rain pants in Arc'teryx's Traverse line designed for hiking and trekking. They are made of Gore-Tex's new 2-layer membrane called Paclite Plus. There is no lining in Paclite Plus, just two layers laminated together to create a really thin, light and packable shell that is completely wind and waterproof. It is also really breathable! Paclite Plus a has a really nice feel against your skin and it isn't super crinkly like previous Paclite shells. These minimalist pants have a fit that I found to be true to size in both Arc'teryx and other rain pants. I'd call it a flattering fit - slim, but with enough room for a baselayer or shorts. I'm 5'4 with short legs and the regular 31

The Zeta SL pants have quickly become a stable in my pack. They are super light weight, roll up small and hardly take up space but are a game changer to have when you need them. My favorite part about the Zeta SL pants is the long zipper so that I don't even have to take off my boots or waste time with any of that. I can just unzip all the way and easily throw them over my leggings when the rain starts flowing. They are also so breathable and comfortable to hike and scramble in. One of the best things too is that when the sun decides to come out again you just easily unzip them, shake them out and throw them back in your pack. Any water on the pants shakes off super easy so you don't have to worry about getting anything else in your pack wet. Overall, it's my first summer in the unpredictable Washington weather, and I am SO happy to have this product to tag along with me on all of our adventures. Bonus: they seem to be mosquito bite proof too!

If you're heading out for a long trek or through rainy landscapes, the Zeta SL pants from Arc'teryx will be your new best friend. Gore-Tex Paclite Plus keeps weight low, but still provides excellent waterproof and breathable protection for those sudden downpours or rainy days on your thru-hike. The 3/4 side zippers are fantastic too -- they make it easy to put these pants on over hiking boots, as well as provide extra ventilation on warmer days. Pack these pants on your next adventure and you won't regret it.
