Your new favorite active stretch corduroy pants. Designed in collaboration with Outdoor Research ambassador Keenan Takahashi, these cords are built with climbing in mind and won't skimp on comfort or style.
Created in tandem with Outdoor Research ambassador Keenan Takahashi, the Method Cord Collection are the first corduroy bottoms designed for activity without sacrificing style. Keenans pure climbing style and passion for travel inspired these live- and work-in-them pants that can be worn from sun up to sun down. A gusseted crotch ensures ease of movement and all-day comfort, and a hint of stretch provides better mobility for bouldering, skateboarding, and all of the life moments that happen in between.

Favorite casual pants
These are the best ever. I just wish they were offered in more colors.

Want another pair!
One of my favorite pairs of pants! They look sweet and fit great. On top of all of that they're extremely comfortable for climbing or just hanging out.

Pants are too tight
Material and quality seemed good but fit like skinny jeans and my legs aren't even that big. Had to return them

Awesome all around pants
I'm 5'7" (woman) and ordered a size 28x30 and they fit perfectly. I wear them around town as casual pants but also to the crag climbing. Originally I ordered the brown/coyote and loved it so much I ordered the green/fatigue colour.

Favorite Pair of Pants!
These pants are my go-to for everything. They are very comfortable, stretchy, and can be dressed up or down. I ended up buying both colors I liked the first pair so much!

Style, Steeze, and High Steps w/ Ease
The near perfect all-in-one pant. From work, to the climbing gym, to the crag, to a night out, the Method Cord Pants excel in comfort and style. Pros: - Looks v good and fits true to size (5'7 165lbs, 32'' W 30'' Inseam fits perfectly cuffed and uncuffed) - Great design by OR team and Keenan Takahashi (internal drawstring waist, super deep pockets, contrast stitching, gusseted crotch) perfect balance of comfort and style - Great ROM for high steps, heel hooks, etc. (My fave climbing pants were Prana Stretch Zion, but they are too tight around my thighs, with the Method Cords I forget I'm wearing pants bc the ROM is literally sooo good.) - Great balance of durability and comfort. (I've worked out in these bc I forgot a change of clothes, taken yoga classes, bouldered and roped up in the gym and outside and these pants performed well in all settings. Surprisingly minimal abrasion from the cotton spandex blend) Cons: - Pants don't breathe as well as nylon blend climbing pants, it gets p hot p quick. Would use these pants as a 2-3 season pant, but honestly that's not that bad. I'll just wear shorts when it's hot. - Drop-in pockets are nice and deep, nothing falls out of the front pockets when climbing. But sometimes can be hard to access compared to more traditional diagonal or seamed pockets. However, not a deal breaker. Overall Score: 98/100 Would recommend both colorways, literally the sickest pair of pants I own. I live in them and love them.

Absolute Favorite Pants
I love corduroys but have in the past found them to be either 1. way too heavy or 2. too tight and not durable enough. These are amazing. They feel very high quality and fit great. Stretchy, gusseted crotch, nice colors, overall perfect for wearing straight from work to the climbing gym or the crag. I hope OR keeps these as a permanent addition to their line and maybe add a couple more colors. I have two pairs and may buy more. If future updates are made, the only suggestion I might have is make the zipper slightly longer.

I love these pants, so great
I just bought a pair of these and I love them. I love the stretch and flexibility. They are very light, so I am concerned with how well they will hold up in the long term, but even with that, I am thinking of getting another pair in a different color bc I like them so much.
