Reviews
Disappointed, the previous pants I purchased were much better quality and thickness.
"Purchased a pair of these pans from Kathmandu several years ago. I've still got them and wear them all the time. In fact, they're so good they can even be worn with a shirt and shoes to somewhere like a restaurant. So, when these came up again on sale, I decided to purchase another pair. Disappointed I was. The quality was just not there. The fabric in my older pair was much firmer and felt really nice to wear. The current pair feels flimsy and cheap. A disappointment. Things like Kathmandu is cutting costs and keeping prices the same. I purchased these online, and in hindsight, wouldn't have purchased them if I had a chance to check them out first."
Comfy Pants
"Comfy pants suitable to wear casually and in semi-formal/business contexts."
Very comfortable pants also available as shorts
"Needed some new pants, because my size changed, and this was an instant re-buy. Not a stretchy fabric, which tends to be my preference, but still comfortable."
Classic, light and dressy
"Great pants. Light and they wear well. These are a repeat purchase due to being a great style, dressy and wear well."
Classic pants; different colour
"Purchased these before, chose a different colour. These are great pants, light but wear well."
Great pants
"These are brilliant. So good I just bought another pair. Compfortable, smart. I am a huge fan."
Great pants
"I purchased these pants for my husband for travelling. They look good, like a jean, have a good amount of stretch to make them comfortable to wear, and the fabric is good for washing/drying as we travel."
Classic and dressy
"These pants are great. Always look dressy."
Very poor quality
"Very poor quality. I expected these to last a lot longer. The material is uncomfortably warm in the heat yet doesn’t provide warmth when it’s cooler. The nylon balled after very light use & also attracted synthetic fluff from an airline blanket. The pants have stretched weirdly, even before a wash, & even though the fit was ‘comfortable loose snug’ when I tried them on in store, after less than a year of light use, these pants sag & are basically unwearable. Disappointed because Kathmandu products are usually of a much higher quality."
