Abisko Midsummer Zip Off Trousers - Men's

Comfortable, Very VERY Nice Fit.

After 5 years of using these pants I decited to write review. Great Allround hiking pants. from Spring to fall I wear them as a single layer and in winter I wear merino leggins under the pants so for me these are all season pants. Comfy, breathable, durable. 5/5

Great design but poor quality

Overall very well designed and comfortable pants - very nice to wear, well designed pockets and some stretching material around the knees. The g1000 light however is definitely not suitable for an outdoor pant - after 2 washes (had them for 4 months so not as much worn!), the pants show wear signs on the thigh so that the material/fibres started to fray. Pants been used to wear around the house and on a few hikes.. No harsh conditions present.. Based on the wear pattern, it at the same height as the kitchen bench, so definitely not a very abrasive surface... Unfortunately no resolution other than going back to a Karl Zip Off pant made from actual durable -G1000 (lasted me before 8 years)

Great design, poor durability

I've bought Abisko Midsummer zipp off pants to replace my long lived (8 years in various climates) and loved Karl Zip pants First impression: Awesome - very functional design, great pocket and very comfortable to wear. After owning them for 4 months and just had to do a second wash (dirt doesn't stick to the material easily) , abrasion damage is visible on the thigh where my leg touches the kitchen bench or car trunk (these are most likely as they match the height etc) - so not very abrasive surfaces. I've used the pants for a few hikes in late autumn and winter but no activity would have targeted that area. Long story short: The G1000 light is a nice idea but poorly executed. I'll go back to a Karl Pro Zipp off pant (not available in North America, will purchase that in Europe) and get a pair that will last for almost a decade.

Nice pants, but too long
