I bought these pants for climbing, slacklining and all around outdoor workouts. They fit well and offer plenty of movement. I like not having the pant legs on my feet, but protection over the knees. I am very happy with them.

These are nice pants, and well designed and stylish. The legs were a bit too long for my purposes (riding a track bike) and still rubbed the chain and got greasy, so I'm having them altered. Otherwise a great product. I wish this company would design a pair of dedicated pedal pushers, they'd sell like hot cakes.

I bought these to use as climbing knickers. The waist runs one size too small as others have stated. Legs feel long and can't be shortened due to drawn cord in the cuff, but length is a personal preference. Otherwise, they will do the job well enough. Some shrinkage likely when washed.

If you don't mind comments about Manpris then you will love these. Be sure to get a size larger, as they run small.

They look cool if you like this kind of thing. I hardly ever wear anything cotton in the high mountains, but these were the best I could do. I would have preferred the old time wooly type.
Great pants for many activities.

These are fantastic. The 3/4th length is great for everything from hiking to climbing and they look great in the process. Material is heavy duty but still soft and flexible. You do need to go up one size. I'm usually a 34, got the 36 and they are perfect.

These pants look great, but the sizing is shaded toward the tall/skinny guys - and I'm not. Although I can lose another inch or so off my waistline, I don't think there's anything I can do to compensate for the lack of room in the seat/crotch area.

I commonly buy pants with a 36 inch waist, unfortuanely these pants appear to be closer to a 30 inch waist, maybe size mislabeled.
Weird and wonderful...Great!

Warm weather hikes, walks, general skirmishing with nature. Be warned: manpris are the domain of so-called Eurotrash and other outernationalists. S'what makes em great!

I'm not that big - 5' 9 1/2", about 155 pounds, and the waist was a little tight. Relying on another posters comments about waist size, I got mine big; and the 34" waist is just about right. That waist size may have helped the fit in the legs too. Great pants!, but buying them an inch or two bigger than you think may help the fit.

i loved the look and features of the product, but when compared to other products of similar size/label this 3/4 pant was overly slim in the legs and butt for me. i returned it.
i would have happily tried a larger size if there was less than a 2 inch jump in waist size to the next option.
Basin 3/4's...better than pants!

The pants are all I hoped they would be. Light weight, and highly mobile these pants will see plenty of use this summer on the trails of Wisconsin and Colorado -I only wish I could find them in another color! In any event I will be ordering another pair! Very cool indeed!
