Comically Baggy Fit

I have been a huge fan of my Gamma LT pants. I got them in 36 long a few years back. The fit on those is great: an athletic fit without a lot of stray material to sway around during runs. So I got a pair of the "revised" Gamma pants. Also in 36 long. I'm a bit at a loss for words to describe how bad the fit is. The butt is incredibly baggy. The legs are baggy as well, though a bit less extreme than the butt area. I threw them in the wash immediately, assuming the fit would be similar. So... I guess I just wasted a lot of money. A truly felt question for arcteryx: what do you propose that athletes buy, now, with these revised fits? I really want to give this 1 star on fit alone. But the material and construction are still good, so you earned back a star for that.

Good As Go-to Pants

Comfortable and in style, you can wear them in a lot of places.

Terrible Build Quality

I bought these pants as I needed a new set of hiking pants. I wore them for a 6 day trip. Both cuffs began to rip through about midway through the hike. The hike was not in rugged terrain and I see no reason why the cuffs should have sustained this much damage. Spending this amount of money for pants that can’t even survive a week of use without sustaining damage is terrible value.

Amazing Pants! 2 Suggestions To Make Them Better

Great pants! I have no complaints besides two. 1# the crotch of the pants are very uncomfortable when siting in your climbing harness. Like the pants need to be looser or extra material in the crotch area. The leg straps of a climbing harness and the lack of stretchiness in the material just crush the family jewels whenever the rope goes tight. Which happens all the time when you're climbing, and these are suppose to be climbing pants. #2 put zipper vents up the sides of the pant legs. Start the zipper right below the leg loops of a climbing harness and end them about the upper calf. This would be an amazing way to dump heat on high output activities. Like sometimes the activity calls for pants instead of shorts (like trying to avoid getting poison ivy on your legs when doing an adventurous climb) but its still super hot outside... some side vents on the legs would give you pants protection but feel like shorts and help you regulate body heat build up.

Can’t Go Wrong With These

A quality all around pant, excited to break them in on the trails, or travel.
