I'm obsessed with these pants and have started buying them and the winter version as gifts. they're so comfortable and lightweight. The winter ones are fleece lined if you're looking for the extra warmth. 10/10 would recommend. I'm either a medium or small typically and opted for the medium for a looser fit, the smalls fit more like leggings.

I like these pants. I am 5'6" and 125 lbs and they fit comfortably. Plenty long enough. I don't love the material for winter, but great for spring, summer and fall. They can double as scrub pants for shure, more comfortable than scrubs too. I just get weirded out by quick dry material against my skin, I don't know why. I baught these because one of the reviews I read said, they are lightly lined with flease....lies!!! They are not lined at all.

Great Gift!

Soft and stretchable fabric make for a great leisure pant or active wear pant. Got these for my girlfriend and right off the bat I was very impressed with the textile used. Good quality and great fit.

These pants are really flexible and breathable and fit so well. I have a really small waist and often have trouble finding pants that are snugg enough around the waist but these are perfect and the elastic helps to make sure it can fit everyone. In comparison to the Backcountry winter pants they are tighter In comparison to the Backcountry on the go LIGHT pants they are a bit bigger. Despite the size difference in the three different pants I do love them all and find these ones to be the best all around. In the Image the pants from back to front are the Winter pant, the On the Go, and the On the Go LIGHT in the front - all pants are in the same size xxs

I LOVE these pants! The medium is just a touch loose in the waist band but they're not big enough to justify getting a small. I will have to use the ties to adjust the waist and make them tight enough. I'm hoping a trip through the washer helps with that. I got these pants in black. They are flattering, comfortable, and transition from casual to technical with ease. I want to wear them for everything! I am especially looking forward to wearing these to work, for travel, and on trail. I would love to see this pant in available more colors.

Perfect pant for every activity!

These are nice and stretchy and quick drying! My measurements are 27.5" waist and 36" hip. My hips are actually pretty narrow (high hip measurement is 30"), so the waist band is a tad large on me but that is how most pants fit me when the waist band sits just above the hip (which is why I say they fit true to size). I just tie the waist tight and they stay put. I like the stretchy tie, because when tied tight, it doesn’t cut into you. I’m 5'2" so these are a little long on me for joggers, but they don’t look bunched at the bottom. I've worn these running, hiking, climbing, and lifting. They worked great for every activity!

Cute and functional

These pants are functional for a hike and then cute for the post hike beer. I am 5 foot 3 in and the small fits well! Great pants!

These Pants are so soft and comfortable for a long day in a car or plane. The pants are also great to slip on for a day on the town and dressy enough to wear out to dinner. I struggle for a good fit and these are perfect in all areas on me. The tie waist is great to help provide a good fit that i struggle with.

Awesome pants but a little snug

I love these pants, so comfy and breathable. Super lightweight and easy to move around in. Only qualm is they run a little smaller than expected. I’m usually a women’s medium in similar style pants and they are a little snugger/shorter than I prefer. I still wear them often but would size up if ordered again. For reference, I am 5’9 and 160lbs.

To start, I was given these pants. And they are the best. I'm struggling to not wear them every day. I'm 5'9" and they fall at my ankle with just enough slack that lounging, hiking or even a gentle flow yoga practice are all comfortable activities. The light fleece-lining is also a great detail. It's cozy yet not overly warm. When I put my hands in the front pockets it covers up to my wrists and the most I'd keep in them would be lip balm or my phone. I could maybe keep tissues in the back pocket for hiking. No complaints though with these.

I now own 4 pair! SO COMFY! I would absolutley recommend.

So much more comfy than I expected!

So first let me be clear, I was given this product by Backcountry, but this review is my own opinion. I was very skeptical of these pants when I first got them. In true Outdoor brand fashion, the XL looked a bit small, especially in the hips. I tried them on and at first they were hard to pull up around the thigh. I thought I'd have to send them back, but once I got them up they fit PERFECTLY. One of my biggest problems with "jogger" type pants is that the thigh is never flexible enough to be comfortable (without the rest being completely oversized) and with these pants that's not even close to an issue. I can do yoga in these, I can hike in these, I can chase my dogs and climb a tree in these. Living in a van means clothing has to be multi-functional or at the very least, accommodating and these pants are all that and then some. They are amazing, and I now want a pair in every single color.

So

Love!

I love these pants. I got complements on them the first day I wore them! 3 things to note. I wish the zipper to the back pocket was wider so that I could fit my phone in it. Secondly, the crotch! It wasn't a deal breaker but a bit awkward. I hate "v" shapes that some pants create. These pants do create a v shape, but I decided it was tolerable. Lastly the ankle is slightly too tight with the elastic material. I wore them around the house to decide if it was too much, and I stopped noticing it after a while. I'm the biggest critic and despite these things, I still love these pants. I ordered both the XS and XXS. I chose to keep the XXS. I could have kept both, the bigger being a more baggy, but the crotch was even worse. Awful. There is quite a bit of size difference between the two. I can agree that it seems like there's a size missing between them. I hope this helps someone!

There aren't enough good things I can say to describe this amazing pair of pants! I was hesitant upon purchasing them, being on the shorter side (5'3), but these pants can truly do it all! I primarily use them as climbing pants, but also have used them for longer chilly Fall bike rides and hikes. The length is great for my height (I ordered a short) and the fit is incredibly flattering-- not to mention the pockets are roomy and functional for your keys, phone or any additional gear you need on your daily adventures. I'd recommend these to anyone on the shorter side that's looking for a durable, versatile pair of pants.

Can you please make more tall sizes in your products?! It’s so difficult to find a 35” inseam or a fitted shirt that’s long enough...

Will the huckleberry colored pants restock? I need a medium or a small

Hey Alix, Im sorry we are not expecting more in the Huckleberry this year.

Why do you make a short option, but no tall option! Your tall friends (with 35" inseams) are tired of having cold ankles!!!

Hi is there an email list that will notify when these go back in stock? Sad I missed out on the animalas print. -- xs/reg

Hey Amanda, I am so sorry we do not have a system in place to alert customers when items come back into stock. We also will not be making that print anymore. I am so sorry!

Hi! Will you be getting xs/short in the animalas print back in stock?

Hey Taylor, I am sorry but we are not going to be getting more of that specific color in stock.

What is the rise on these?

Hey Trish, the inseam on these pants rise is 10.25in!

What is the inseam for the XS Reg vs the XXS Reg? Will you ever offer longs?

Hey Misty, currently these are not offered with a Long option, however, some have found that they have a generous length compared to many other brands.

what is the inseam length of regular vs short? Medium specifically if that matters. Thanks

Hey Sandy, The inseam to the Regular is 29in, and the Short is 27.5!

Hi, can you tell me the weight of a small regular and a medium regular. Also, I am 5’4and 135 #., would a small or medium be a better fit for me?

Hey Terri, The small is right about 9oz, and the medium is right about 10.5 they are very close in weight. I am also 5'4" and 135lbs and I wear a small regular, however, if you like the pant length to hit you around the ankle instead id order short pant length!

Hello- Can you tell me when the Midnight XS/Short will be back in stock? Thanks!

Hi Kristen, We'll have more in February but will try to have some in November/December if we can.

Do you have an estimate for when XS/Short in black will be available? Thanks!

Hi Emma-Lead - unfortunately not until February of next year but we are working on getting more in, in Nov/Dec if we can!

Will there be anymore of the Olive in size Medium coming back soon? Also what it’s the length difference between short and regular? Thank you!

Hi Chelsea! We will be getting Medium, Short in stock at the end of September, but no more Medium, Regulars. The difference in the short and regular is 2 inches, 28" inseam for the short, 30" inseam for the regular

When will you have XS/Short available?

Hey Robin! We will be getting more in your size by June!

These pants don’t appear to be available in size S. Will you be getting more soon in that size?

Hey Felicity! We didn't anticipate how much everyone loved the pants so we are currently sold out for the season unless folks send back new returns. We hope to have them in stock for fall - check back between August-September!

Hey Felicity! We have them back in stock in size small now!

I want to buy another pair, but there are no smalls in either color. Can I get notified when they are in stock again?

Hey Liz, We didn't anticipate how much everyone loved the pants so we are currently sold out for the season. We hope to have them in stock for fall and don't have a notification system for when they come back at this time - check back on the site between August-September!
