The sizing on these pants is way off. I am a solid 6 and I couldn’t even get these fastened. I returned them and got a size 8. Still too tight. I returned again and got a size 10. These are still pretty snug. I have never worn a size 10 in my life. I also ordered a pair of Kuhl brand pants in a size 6 and they fit great. I have recently read other reviews that the sizing is not accurate. I would think Backcountry would fix this issue since this is their brand. This was a big hassle, cost me money in shipping returns, and the experience was frustrating.

I got these mostly for hiking, but have ended up wearing them for everyday pants too. I love that they are so stretchy and that they have a high waist that stays up.

Haven’t been out in these, yet. But wore them around the house and I love them. They have the perfect amount of stretch and give. So flattering, as well. Definitely an added bonus. I’m 5’8, 160 lbs, and athletic build. I got a size 8 and normally wear an 8. They fit great.

I like the fabric and overall style of these pants. So far they are fairly comfortable for hiking with decent breathability and stretch - without stretching too much. The cut is a bit too tight through the thighs and hips for me, but a larger size would likely be too large in the waist, as there is already a small gap. I like the higher cut waist. The front pockets are only mesh material, too small, and oddly set. I hate mesh pockets because if you put anything metal like keys or a pocket knife in them (which you might commonly want to put in your pockets), it is uncomfortable and likely to tear the mesh. If you put dog treats in them, the treats can get a tad soggy from being next to your skin. An iPhone XR does not fully fit in any of the pockets - it will stick out of the rear pockets considerably.

Not true to size

Does not run true to size. I am a solid 8 and could barely get them up my legs. Love the material. Disappointing.

These pants are so comfortable, versatile, and durable. I wear them hiking, to the gym, and even to the office sometimes. I love the asphalt color, the fit, and material. Highly recommend!

Do these pants have UPF protection and are they water repellent?

Hey Miya! These are water repellent! They are treated with DWR, I'm not sure why this isn't listed, so thank you for pointing that out. They are also a medium denier 4-way stretch active material, this is a burly fabric which protects the user from the sun. While we dont have a UPF rating on them, you will not get the harmful effects from the sun through them.
