Mountain Hardwear

Stretch Ozonic Pant - Men's

Good product but fragile

Very comfortable, waterproofing is good too (withstood rain storm at Mt Diablo and snow storm at lake Tahoe) but very fragile fabrics. It has been about 50 days of purchase and I have worn in only 4 times, it has a hole in front. I never kept anything other than phone in pocket

Great rain pants

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I use these riding to work in Japan. They are light weight and easy to get on and off due to the zippers on the sides that go all the way up to the knee. So far I really like them.

Horrible

Sizing is horribly inaccurate. In the past, quality and sizing were great. No belt loops to save money.

Great but very delicate

Fit well and were comfortable. Unfortunately, after one mountaineering trip they are starting to tear. Specifically, the front pocket is ripping. Note, I haven't used the pockets for much beyond a phone or car keys.

OK for gentle rains

Very light weight, unlikely to handle significant weather. OK for gentle rains.

Great Rain Pants!

Great rain pants. Lightweight and flexible. I love that the leg zippers come almost to the top. The zippers make it easy to take of without getting totally muddy from my boots. Finally, I'm so glad that the draw string is not some tiny bungee cord that doesn't help keep my pants up. The shoestring draw string at the waist makes for a solid fit and my pants won't fall down.

Waterproof, windproof

Familiarity:

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

But they ripped on one trip up Mt Washington. What a waste.

Long, too short

I ordered a large long inseam and that’s what tag said but they measured only 32 inches

Comfortable, Size/Shape Not for Me

The fabric is certainly supple and comfortable. The fit is a bit strange with these. The pant leg width is rather billowy and loose. The length is simply off. I ordered "regular" 32" inseam, but in reality it was more like a 30" inseam, so the size chart is off. The width is "too big", while the length is "too small". Mountain Hardwear took care of the return for me, and the customer service was great. Might just be not the right pant/fit for me. Can't comment on quality, though my son's Stretch Ozonic jacket has held up well over the years.

Pretty good but pricey

I also have the previous version of these pants. I'm sorry to see the newer version did away with the buckle and substituted a cheap waist drawstring. Otherwise, the pants function well in the rain or wet conditions and are good at blocking any cold wind.
