There are not many people on KZread who makes reviews base on their experience. Most of them just read the official specifications. You've done o good job in this review.

The Mountain Hardware pants are called AP Trousers and the color is Shark. And they still do make them.! :D

I can not thank you enough for recommending these pants to me. I use to only wear old navy or h&m brand pants and the crotch of the pants will always break on me, plus they never felt comfortable. I felt every step felt like a mission. Then I went to cargo pants felt amazing but they were just to baggy. But when I paid for these pants o my gurd I feel like I’m walking on a cloud. Buddy thank you thank you 🙏🏽. Plus I just got into hiking 💪🏾🙏🏽

Great review! And good to see your wrist has healed meanwhile!

I definitely agree with your top choice, but I'm also super biased :) I work for the store in San Francisco haha. They really do strive to make the best designed clothing products. Awesome, I'll tell them you like the pants!

Eddie Bauer guide pro pants are my favorite summer pants to wear outdoors. Breathable, plenty of pockets, DWR finish, and very stretchy. They retail for $80 but you can get them cheaper during certain times of the year. You should give them a try.

This -- I grabbed a pair on Black Friday for 40 bucks, and another online for 60. I would recommend the *slim version* though. They are tapered and look much better on me than the regular cut guide pro. The fabric has plenty of stretch so that the tapered cut honestly does not affect mobility that much.

Hey man! Great video, and great timing! I'm actually in the market for some new pants. Have you tried the Du'er adventure pants?

I like your style man. Having moved from California to Colorado, I've kinda been evolving from a more workwear to a more techware style and I like learning about these brands that offer form and function. Really digging those Reykjavik Trousers.

For Lululemon, I'd recommend the License to Train (either the joggers or the pants) for all around use. They're versatile, vented, tapered and incredibly comfortable.

Great review. Tapered at the bottom is a meter of personal preference. In my case, I need them to cover the shoes to wear at work. A taper adjustment for the outdoors is great. Some of us have thick legs for a medium built body. I would have loved if you would have include some pants model by Kuhl. Maybe next time. Thanks

Kuhl are pants that I really want to try some day, especially the Radikl action or Silencr. Their price is a bit high though at $90. Right now I go with Eddie Bauer Guide Pro (Slim version, usually on sale for $60) -- and if I really want to go budget, I go Wrangler ATG Eco Synthetic for like $48. Maybe one day I'll snag a pair of Kuhl's to see how they fit.

Got a lot of value from this, thanks Alex.

Thanks for this detail review bro!

Thanks for the review :) I've been looking around a bit for pants like this, and also found the Houdini Way to Go pants (Houdini is another swedish brand). Sounds like they might be right up your alley.

I really enjoy how you review. Super relaxed and cogent.

Was actually just looking for review about pants... because need a good pair of them. Ended up in your video and was like woah , I´m following this guy in instagram because of the great pictures... I didn´t even knew you had youtube channel... Well will start to follow here as well... :D

What sort of shoes have you got on this video? Lasportiva I think but what model?

Would have liked to know the weight and how much hard use or walking through brush they could handle.

Love the review! Waterproof hiking jackets next if you will?

That was very nice and informative. thanks.. would you consider making the same kind of video with your favorite hiking teeshirts brand. for the last couple of years i'm only using icebreaker for the confort and especially the smell! but i'm curious if you're using other kinds of fabric and are happy about it.. merci...

Thanks, Alex, really helpful!

can you tell more about the topo variant; they seem to be the most interesting ones...

I'm having trouble finding the right size for me, i need 30 in waist and 32 in inseam. Found Nau Motil and wear for some years, I thought is the perfect pant till i bought for hiking fjallraven abisko lite which feels even better. The colour washes out very quickly. I have also some north66 for winter but 30 is tight and becomes uncomfortable after a while, and some 32 for summer bought when i didn't knew my size but are unusable, so i think i'm done with the north66 experiment. Patagonia has some nice ones as well but the wrong sizes.

Cool! Shopping for pants and enjoyed the review!

When I saw this guy is a tapered pant freak......instant sub.

Nice basic review of a few options. I wish you would have talked more about the pockets. If you're focused on urban area, most likely you'll be riding busses, be in crowds and such. I'm looking for such a pant that has zippered pockets, for a bit of theft proofing. Seems to be two camps for this option, either no attention to it, or way over done. Any suggestions from what you've seen?

Fantastic... You should do a update of maybe other pants you have found.... This was a fantastic guide for me...

Dude, you'll fall in love with Kühl. My favorite is the Renegade, but for skinnier legs look at Renegade Rock pant.

I think those lululemons are the commission pant. The abc has more of a Jean pocket and the commission has a khaki pocket.

Need this one for camera bags!

Oh great! I'm looking forward to for a long time! Fans from Taiwan.

The first one seem so tight like no freedom of movement. Can you squat or put things in your pockets with it not getting noticed?

I always prefer an adjustable leg opening usually a bungee cord style..Maybe you some recommendations of brands that I may not no have tried?

I love the Mountain Hardwear pants... I'd still wear them all torn up b/c of the story you have with them. Never give up on your pants.

With the Arcteryx pants, do you wish you went up in size with the waist? I'm a 32in typically as well but am debating if getting the 32in or the 34in is the better call.

I agree, Arc’teryx is tighter on the waist. I also wear 32 and rely on a belt.

Wondering why Prana didn't make the list? They'd practically be a budget option in this line-up.

I wouldn't mind someone doing an independant review of the trousers by Revolution Race. How about it?

Great video. May I ask the model of your Addidas trainers?

What color were the stormlands?

I was looking at maybe buying a pair of one of these type pants..... Then this video reminded me that I ran a lot, and skinny style pants fit pretty tight.

Thoughts on Patagonia Terrebonne joggers?

HI Alex - some trousers are no longer available, do you know the equivalent models?

Hi Alex, thanks for the review. Can I please ask what your height and weight is so I can compare? I just bought some Arc'teryx Starke pants online in size 32, which is my normal size. I am 176cm tall and 71 kg, so I am worried they maybe too big. We'll find out I guess.

Compared to all these the Brion pant from Prana seems to be a really good option. 5 pocket design, stretch, durable non-shiny fabric, DWR. They just need to be tapered, and only cost $80.

U should try the Nordwand Pro pants by RevolutionRace. They are reasonable priced at about 110 USD and just as good or better quality and design as the biggest well-known brands.

Hey Alex, you should check out the Eddie Bauer First Ascent pants. I'm a pants snob too. I bought two pair for $50 each and they are durable, comfortable, stretchy and water repellent with DWR. I personally like them because of there solid blue, black and brown colors which aren't shiny(hate shiny). And they have butt pockets and cool side pockets. You would have to taper them, big deal! Just thought I'd mention it. Keep up the videos. thanks.

Eddie Bauer just came out with the Slim version of these! It's only in 3 colors, but they fit perfectly and are exactly what I wanted in a stretchy, tapered, hiking pant. There's also plenty of room/stretch in the waist for me to carry my Walther CCP in my IWB holster. They are my new favorite pant.

Why didnt you show the pants when annoucing the winnerd

Thank you. Excellent video

Most durable pair?

try revolution race. I love them!

Nice review Alex , maybe I am just an old guy but why the tapering? I have never made fashion statements about hiking trousers but I would obviously never be seen dead in flared trousers. Incidentally just like my shopping I always seem to like the look and feel of the most expensive things on offer irrespective of whether they have a price tag on or not.

Just get the Wrangler hikers from Walmart for $21.92 and call it a day. From the looks of it, they stack up well with most of these. Might have to take them to the seamstress to fey them up a little, but they do well by me for daily hiking use.

Nice rev!!

Nice review... But you should true the montane alpine stretch pants or the montane on sight pants... And also definitely pants from bergens of Norway......

Check out the Houdini brand as well, Swedish like the Fjällräven

Appreciate the effort

Wheres the pocket on the esja?

You should try Columbia Triple Canyon pants. Better than all of those IMO and it's like $50.

Great review... But your need to try some Paramo trousers.... You'll be impressed

Thumbnail reminded me of the Joker from Suicide Squad! Alex, how about a review on gloves? I would love your input for trekking and mountaineering gloves. Using a camera with those can be a challenge.

I'm in the market for pants and as a fellow svelte man, these reviews helped tremendously. I felt your pain when you bought those medium Colorado pants and they came out looking like that.

"You want to be careful not to eat too much when you wear these" haha. Helpful and adorable modeling and reviewing with an endearing accent. Thanks for this fun video. Especially the ABC acronym lesson. My passion for pants has grown watching this.

this video would make more sense if you wouldnt pinroll your pants. how should we know about the length

I own fjällräven pants, they are very high in quality, many useful pockets and feels good to wear.

A good Zipper!!! Is what I need

Dude this is one of the most solid reviews I've ever seen.

what about men with muscle

None of these spandex blend pants are good for long term use. I've used the Prana Stretch Zion & Outdoor Research Ferrosi Pants during thru hikes and they just don't last. The waist always stretches out way beyond what they're supposed to be. Granted thru hikes are extreme examples, but you'd be better off with full nylon pants.

True two years ago, 5.11 has since changed the design and the fit is now WAY too tight, especially in the crotch... also the crotch will give out in less than a year. Pass.

Do any of these come in straight fit? I hate slimmer pants for hiking because they don’t fit over the boot.

KZread gold, right here. *Cue applause track. 💥🥇🏆💥 I like it. This is actually very helpful. When I find a good pair of trousers (I like the word ‘trou-ser’) which do all of the things I want them to do and maybe even fit properly, then I immediately go back to the store/website and buy as many duplicates as the wallet can spare. I wear these in rotation until all the favorites are in serious, entropic, motorcycle accident condition. Funny thing about buying in duplicates, when one pair fails the whole ship sinks. For example, my last pair of favorite jeans (I bought 3 pairs) and when the first pair started ripping open at the left knee, within a month the other two pairs started falling apart in the exact same spot. Multiple pants, same fate. Trousers. Pants. Shopping. Measuring. Fitting. Testing. “Nope not these, maybe these?” What a headache. Finding the right golden sauce, ultimate balance between comfort, fit, functionality and price is always such a challenge, especially in the pants (*trousers) department. Plugging these brands into eBay now, hold please... 😎👍👍

You should try Outlier Slim Dungarees. Best all purpose pants I've ever worn.

The reason these pants aren't tapered like a pair of hipster skinny jeans is because some people will be using these outdoors, over boots.

this guy loves tapering his pants. I cannot walk around with tight tapering when being active. Feels like someone is tugging and compressing at me at the bottom. But that's just my preference.

Hey Alex this icebreak persist suits on you very well... don't you see your own video and I am surprised it's not in your list. Even it is waterproof... it's up to you and this is the best one.... thanks for your review...

You bought subs

I love my Lululemon ABC Pants. I can wear them at the office with a button down shirt and leather shoes, or wear them outside with a t-shirt and athletic shoes and they look great in both settings. They are super comfortable as well! I can do a full squat in them and no ball crushing! The downside to the ABC pants in my opinion is that there is a bit too much room in the seat which is odd since I have a muscular butt! I also wish the back was slightly higher cut for more coverage when bending over or squatting down. The fabric is also a bit too lightweight for hiking through dense brush. I would prefer something a bit thicker.

how about clothes?

Can you please review some of the pants by #Cactusoutdoor I think they will be a good contender. I have some "CNC slim super trousers" by them and love em.

I am more interested in the outdoor performance, how quick they dry, weight, durability and things like that, so this review is not for me. Fit is very individual anyway.
