Ferrosi Pant - Men's

Great pants but watch the briars

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Size Bought:

Medium

I love these Ferrosi pants for backpacking in warmer weather. They are cool, very stretchy and light weight. They also look great. I love the feature to pull the legs up over the knee for water crossings. Only downside is they will get pilling when stuck by briars. A little more durability would be beneficial.

I loved this pant when I bought it at a Backcountry store, it was true to size for me, and so fresh, perfect for summer weather and hot days on the trail. However, after sitting on a rock (literally sitting on) and then stand up the pant was punctured (nickel size hole), which made me reconsider the durability aspect of this piece. I only had it for 2-3 months on mostly hikes and a few low difficult scrambles. In comparison, I have a PRANA Zion 4+ years old, with some signs of age (specially around the ankles) but other than that, no punctures.

These are great to take on a trip. They consume almost no space, dry quickly, have pockets, look fine, and seem like they'll last longer than my cheap pants.

Way better fit than the older soft shells I used to wear religiously. Those were droopy butt. These are Nice and stretchy. Look good. Dry super fast. Hands are a squeeze in the upper front pockets but meh

Trust These Pants

I own 6 pairs, and hiked the AT wearing only Ferrosi pants everyday. They're light weight, stretch, breathe, protect, and fit well. Legs dry extremely fast after water crossings. Not a single snag, tear, or hole. The one piece of gear I completely forgot about unless I needed to wash them. They stuff down small enough to wash in a food bag and hang dry over night. Only changes I recommend would be adding a one-hand operated zipper to the cargo pocket, and a zipper on the left rear pocket.

Great summer hiking pants

These pants are perfectly fitted, have just enough pockets to be useful, and most importantly the material is incredibly lightweighr and breathable. Definitely my favorite hiking pants now.

Amazing warm weather pants!

Super lightweight & breathable, stretch makes them feel like wearing nothing at all and water beads right off. Absolutely love them!

Perfect for Summer

Love the durability and the feel during those hot summer days!

Currently looking get more pairs in different colors
