Good fit, alternative to Ferrosi

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've worn these on a couple of hikes now and also casually - for casual use, they're great and comfortable and lightweight, and for the most they can be dressed-up! For hiking, I think I still prefer my Ferrosi pants but these also do well and do feel a bit lighter weight. I'm not sure if they're as breathable yet, time will tell. Size-wise, like many OR pants/shorts, it's slightly bigger than a 32 from other brands. I still wouldn't size down though, I'm fine with using a belt with them. Overall, great purchase!

Great all-around use pants!

Love them and wear them almost every day - they are supremely comfortable and very functional with great zipper pockets and regular pockets. Material is great for being outside or just wearing around the house. Would highly recommend!

How about making some longer inseams?

Is it possible to make your pants with an inseam larger than 32"? I'm 6'3', and the 32" inseam just doesn't work for me. Thanks

Comfortable

These pants are lightweight, comfortable and well made. Since they are black they look a bit more formal than khakis.

Good hiking pants

Perfect for hot weather hiking where the brush would otherwise scrape up your legs

Awesome flexibility and quick-dry but fit too big

These are my main trekking pants that I use mainly for overnight trips. The flexibility and quick-dry is great but the sizing is off. I ordered a 30/30 which is my size in just about every other brand of pants but these fit too big around the waist.

A little bit of an adjustment

I ordered a pair of these pants a year ago and a 34" waist fit perfectly. So, I ordered the same size again and the "new and improved" pant now has a 3" gap at my waist. I call CS and they say that they resized everything to match current industry trends. I had to order a size down, so a 32" size pant fits my 36" actual waist. Sounds nuts. It fits though.

Country Club Ready

I like my voodoos more with action cut and side pocket. My Equinox pair I don't wear as much with clean look. I can't really sport the draw string waist and wear a belt. They can be dressed up to coat and tie.

Solid pants from OR

New to using OR, and I haven't put much wear into these pants, but so far they are fine. Waterproof/resistant as described, stretchy and comfortable. The only complaint I currently have are the pockets. The pockets are hard to access when sitting, and I'd imagine it's because the pocket holes ride a bit higher than normal pockets would. I guess this would be preferable if you're climbing and you want to make sure nothing accidentally falls out of your pockets, but for everyday usage, I wouldn't recommend it.
