For pants, its pretty hard to beat the Prana pant. They dry quick, don't rip, bugs can't get through them, they stretch a bit and its very hard to tear them. Lots of pockets. Used them treeplanting which is the best test out there. Used to use Canadian army pants but these are better and easier to find. Prana aren't tactical, more geared to camping/hiking/climbing community.
- perrylaj 4y agoI've been loving Prana for a while as well, for all the reasons mentioned. I haven't needed anything new recently, but have heard that the newer generation 'eco friendly' materials are noticeably worse in ways, and fit/sizing has changed. Have you had any experience with the new stuff?
- swader999 4y agoMy current pairs are about two years old and seem same so maybe I luckily bought before this update.
- CobaltFire 4y agoI’ve heard this over and over so bought a pair to try (I’m wearing them now) and though they are good, they aren’t the end all people make them out to be. Though they were vastly more expensive my Arc’teryx pants are 6 years old, have seen multiple expeditions and who knows how many thousands of days of wear, and show less wear than my year old Pranas.
- swader999 4y agoDo you have a link to a current version of that Arcterix pant? Are they similar weight and breathability as the Prana? Cool to learn about alternatives.
- CobaltFire 4y agoThey've changed their naming quite a lot the past few years. The pant I've been using in particular I need to see what they call it now; it was the Psiphon SL: https://www.rei.com/product/879230/arcteryx-psiphon-sl-pants-mens https://www.rei.com/product/879230/arcteryx-psiphon-sl-pants...
