Durable and comfortable for rock climbing. Good range of motion in hips and knees. Pants ride high on hips which positions climbing harness over pants without bunching or rubbing on skin which is positive. Unfortunately, side pockets are positioned right under harness leg loops and makes accessing contents cumbersome. Also contents in side pockets (i.e. phone) may dig into hip on hip flexion. Finally, lack of zipper fly make urinating very cumbersome - requires untying drawstring and pulling pants down from under harness. Overall, good pants and solid build, decent abrasion resistance against abrasive rock, but positioning of pockets and lack of fly make these pants less user-friendly than I would have hoped.
