These are my favorite jeans to climb in, and for that matter my favorite "normal" pants to climb in if I don't need a side pocket for a phone. They are also just killer pants to wear /bike around town. The fabric is really durable but has enough stretch to accommodate movement (climbing, bouldering in the gym, riding a bike, stretching, etc). The fit is a little bit tight; most people will probably find them to be a nice athletic fit (and fine with the stretch) but if you have thighs like pistons they might be too tight.
This is my second pair, the first pair are still doing great except the pocket liners wore out. Hopefully that durability issue has been solved. While minor, it has been annoying.
