Product Description
Eminently suitable for bouldering, climbing, and hiking, this series is built for the varied terrain of its namesake national park. Durable, abrasion-resistant stretch nylon fabric with an all-weather finish has plenty of give and dries quickly. A streamlprAna Men's Stretch 30-Inch Inseam Zion Pant (Cargo Green, Medium) Review
I was in search of new, waterproof/stain-proof hiking pants & found these on sale at REI.Bought 1 pair from REI & then bought 2 other colors from Amazon for significantly less.
My wife had purchased Prana women's 'convertible' pants & really liked them.
So far I've found the mens ones to be comfortable with what seems to be quality construction.
They're Scotch-guarded & waterproof (to a point, of course), and fit really nicely.
The fabric might be a bit warm if you're in a hot/humid place, but they're great for my location.
I really like the adjustable waist, because "Large" is a bit unclear.
I'm anywhere from 33"-36" depending on the brand of pants & time of year, so this is a nice feature.
Haven't worn them hiking yet, so I can't say how they'll hold up outdoors...
But they're great all-around pants because they look like normal khakis.
Happy I managed to add to my work, hiking, and lounging wardrobe w/one product, because I hate buying clothes in the first place.
Mesh pockets are nice & help to keep things cool. The zippered pocket faces forward & would be ok for a wallet, but I don't really use it - it's juuust too low to be convenient (but perfect when sitting). 2 back pockets - one is open & one has a top flap. I never use these because I hate sitting on a wallet anyway. Would be nice if one had a zipper though - then I might actually feel ok using it for a wallet while walking around.
Buttons on the bottom won't probably get much use since I'm not a climber. Ok for stream crossing maybe, but a bungee would be easier. These require rolling & snapping. I prefer the approach in REI's "Endeavor" stretch hiking pants, which I bought at the same time & would say are slightly more comfortable but less stylish.
My only complaint so far is that after 1st wash the pants seem noticeably tighter around the thighs & maybe even a bit shorter. This is disappointing because I really need 31" pants, which don't exist. 32" is usually too long, and 30" was barely long enough, so I've wound up w/high-waters that are a bit tight. Probably need to dry on low heat. Too late to return to Amazon I guess, but maybe I can exchange the REI ones to see if 32" would be a better fit.
Overall, great product though & I liked the first pair enough to buy more right away.
That's not something I usually do w/clothing, or anything else really.
