I wear these in the winter and summer. I look like a fool in the winter because I'll wear long wool socks to keep warm but I just love wearing these. They have just the right amount of stretch, enough so that I quit wearing my biking shorts and just wear these (longer rides I'll wear my padded spandex under them for groin comfort). These are great when I'm camping, long road trips and the built in belt is nice when I've ate too much and need a little extra room. As far as durability - they still look brand new after 100's of wear/washings. I own the green and charcoal color but I wish they made black.

I couldn't find these anywhere locally to try on first so i was hesitant between a small or medium (I'm 5'10" 160lbs and wear between a 30-32 in pants). after reading some of the other reviews i ended up deciding on a small and it fits perfect. I climb a majority of the week and so far cant say a bad thing about these, just stretchy enough for full range of motion, but snug so no need for a belt. thanks to the scotchguard protection they have held up great against the mud and dirt outside. what i love most about these is the fact i can climb all day outside and come home and be comfy without changing.

Well-made. I couldn't decide between Stretch Zion pants or shorts, so I went with this instead. They run large. As in, I bought a small for my 5'11/155 lb self and it fits great.
These are pretty good climbing and yoga pants. They are super stretchy and very light weight. I've taken them across the globe and were wonderful in southeast Asia where the humidity was high. The only downside is that since they are 3/4 pants, they may make you look a little silly going to the grocery store.
