Ordered the men's "adventure" water resistant pants after watching and reading reviews on the pants. The only hesitation I had was which waist size to order. I'm a 33 and the company suggested ordering a size down if you are in between even waist sizes. The size 32 turned to be fine since the elastic in the waistband stretches quite a bit. After fastening the button I can still stretch the waist out to about a 36. I ordered a 32 inseam which is my usual length and they are long enough to cover the top of my shoes. The pants are very warm and comfortable. They fit a bit on the snug side, definitely not baggy. I would recommend these pants and would purchase them again. Hope this helps someone decide on sizing, since they were my concerns and I didn't see any reviews that addressed them specifically.

Good experience overall. Great gear, love my new pants! Just ordered a 2nd pair.
The service and delivery were very slow. I am still waiting for an RMA to get processed after 1 month.

I have not tried my new pants yet so I can't give you a review

Unfortunately the garment I purchased is not the right cut for me. It looks like good quality. I will be returning it because it doesn't fit

I've been looking for something I can throw on on a cold morning in Wisconsin to walk the dog or walk along the lake. Usually, I have to "double layer" with tights and then sweats and these pants eliminates the need for that. Super comfortable and durable. I wear them more than I expected to. I only wish the zippers weren't bright orange but if that's the least of my concerns, we're doing ok.

Purchasing was simple and despite postal delays (that were due to Royal Mail not Northbound) I received my items promptly. However, in the time between placing an order and actually receiving it my inbox was hammered by far too many automated emails offering special discounts or from the founder? Honestly, I think the number is excessive and if anything made it less likely I'd buy again despite being happy with the product.

I did unsubscribe but the perceptive damage was already done. TL;DR Pls don't spam kthxbai

I placed my order on Dec 21. I didn't receive a shipping notification until Jan 2. My pants were not shipped until Jan 7, and I did not receive them until Jan 19. This timeline would have been reeelatively ok considering the holidays had they answered a single one of my emails about the shipping. So this entire process was really anxiety-inducing. For comparison, I ordered a backpack from Alberta, Canada (I live in Appalachia) and I got it in six days. As far as the pants go, construction seems solid save for the front button hole, which wasn't properly trimmed. I'm handy with a needle so it's no big deal. I'll be putting them through the ringer this winter and I think they'll hold up great! They fit well and I love the elastic on the sides for comfort. It's fantastic the sizing chart seems to be accurate, because I DID NOT want to deal with having to exchange them.

More delivery information would be helpful. Great product delivered.

Great service in the shopping experience and delivery. I'm just waiting to try that pants on my next mountain next month. Will be Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.
Colombian's TOP and the highest next to the sea of the world.
I let you know guys!

Seamless process, but delivery was slow. Otherwise good.

Didn't apply my 15 percent discount but staff emailed me back and said they would put it in my account. Very satisfied

The website was a pleasure to browse and discover the products. Once I received my new pants, I wore them and they were very comfortable, warm and soft.

Easy to order.
Hopefully the product is good.
Just got it three weeks later.
Love the pants

I bought 4 pieces:
1. Adventurer Resistant Pants: This is an AMAZING purchase for several reasons. Quality 10/10. Super warm and comfortable. The design is amazing as well, it is a slim/straight cut. I'm 6'3" (190 cm) and thin, and they fitted me perfectly (32x34).
2. Explorer water resistant pants (two of these): Not recommended. They are waterproof and the fabric is soft and breathable BUT I disliked the design (cut) completely. Very loose at the bottom and a little tight for the quads. Since I'm very thin, this kind of design doesn't fit me. If you like it loose on the bottom, then they will probably feel great for you, but that is not my case. Also, some of the seams feel uncomfortable at the knee height.
3.The 2-1 resistant cargo pants: The same thing as the explorer ones. Great fabric, very soft and breathable, waterproof but too loose at the bottom and super uncomfortable at the knee because you feel the zipper constantly. If you remove it, the shorts are great. Great color, great pockets, very comfortable.

All of these have adjustable waist, which is really nice. I live in Mexico and the shipping delayed quite a bit but they did arrive. I totally would buy the Adventurer pants once more, but definitely not the other two kinds. I'd look for other options.

Over all excellent. Took awhile to get here though.
