great but too expensive

This is fantastic compared to knitted polyester joggers or cotton joggers. They are looser than merino base layers, but don't feel any more durable. I've worn these PCT touring parts (the best parts) and they've performed great in the heat, rain, and cold. I would wear them around the house if they weren't so expensive or if I thought they were very durable.

Pros
  • If you're a fan of merino wool, check out your new loungewear. I think they will last many winters.
Cons
  • While the large size may suit some customers, those outside of this range may have trouble finding the right fit.

Merino wool is very fine and of excellent quality. I will be buying another pair soon. Lightweight and breathable. Perfect trousers for leisure

Pros
  • I take with me on a trip to Iceland, good material, warm and soft to the touch. i will buy it again
Cons
  • Made from merino wool, these pants may be too bulky to wear comfortably in hot climates or during the summer months.

Best Buy cannot properly describe products.

This is advertised with a zip pocket on the back. THIS IS NOT! Bought for my wife, 5ft 7in 155, size medium. Slightly loose fit but for some reason the average size is significantly cheaper than the other sizes. Maybe that's why they sent me pants with no pockets?

Pros
  • Ideal for a fisherman's house. You're dressed for breakfast and ready to slip right into your waders.
Cons
  • high price

Convenient and easy to attach

Just what I wanted for an end of season canoe trip through the wilderness. They were easy to put on both over trousers and underpants. Being made of wool, they kept you warm even when wet and dried surprisingly quickly in the sun.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Just a little itchy but that's ok

It's very comfortable, fits well, not too loose and not too tight, the waistband doesn't feel like a super tight elastic either, so again a nice touch I'm really sad to look at on dark gray and wish it was a different color

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • High Price

Comfortable but small

My husband loves them. At first I was worried they wouldn't fit when he took them out of the box. He is 5'6", 155 pounds, compact, muscular and athletic. He usually wears 31W/30L pants and falls more between S and M. Based on some reviews I ordered him these pants in a medium size and I'm glad he did I did this.They are tighter to begin with and a size small would be too tight.The length is a little longer because it's short but not too short and the piping at the bottom doesn't let them…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

They are alright. The Merino hype adds $100.

They are transparent, there is no longer a zip pocket like the old ones. Too fragile to do anything in them and every time you wash them you loosen them up a bit. As with all merino wool, the clock is ticking once you have it, it won't last long, even in pajama bottoms. They are very light and comfortable, hence the 4 stars. They were sent in an unprotected plastic bag, there were 2 small holes in the bag but I don't see any damage to the product. Shipping like this is too expensive. They also…

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Difficult to spot
