Pants that are so comfortable, sometimes it feels like you’re wearing nothing at all
Eric S
After more than two years of wearing the Outdoor Research Transit Pants for… well, basically everything except a job interview, I can confidently say these are a hall-of-fame pair of pants. If OR ever discontinues them, I might have to file an official grievance. Travel Performance: I’ve worn these on multi-hour flights to Indonesia, and they truly transit well—comfortable enough to sleep in but not so pajama-like that you feel judged walking through customs. Lightweight, breathable, and somehow still looking presentable after 26 hours of questionable airplane posture. Everyday Versatility: These strike the perfect balance of “summer-ready lightness” and “in-town acceptable.” You can hike in the morning, grab tacos in the afternoon, then hop on a plane in the evening—and the pants won’t be the limiting factor in any of that. Trail Cred: For hiking and backpacking, the lighter fabric hits a sweet spot: just enough cooling when you’re moving, enough warmth when you’re chillaxing at camp, and a solid bug barrier when the mosquitoes organize their nightly rave. The taper is clutch—pull them up for extra airflow or leave them down when you want a bit more protection. Gym, Crag, and General Shenanigans: They’ve become a staple for workouts, climbing gym sessions, and cragging days. They move with you, shrug off chalk, and don’t complain when you’re sitting on a crash pad contemplating life choices. Durability & Fit: Thanks to the spandex blend, they will stretch out after multiple wears, but a quick wash snaps them right back into shape. After two years of heavy use, mine are still going strong—no unexpected ventilation panels yet. Final Verdict: If I had to choose only one pair of pants for travel, hiking, gym days, and everyday wear… these are it. Comfortable, durable, wildly versatile, and somehow still stylish enough to fool people into thinking you planned your outfit. 10/10. Highly recommend. Will buy again.

It’s a quality product, I don’t wear them as much as I thought I would because I don’t like the way they fit my leg.

I have several pairs of these pants and they’re my go to option for something that can be worn in a professional environment or out on the trail. Comfortable and useful without being overly technical looking.

love how light the pants are as well as their ability to limit tearing on barb wire to the immediate area of the tear with less spread and wear at the site than other pants I've had for a good price point!
