The lightweight material these pants are made is a hiker's dream! I am so sad the cut of the pants does not work for me. To begin with, I was looking for a slim fit pant and while the pant legs on the models look very slim, in reality they are quite a bit baggier. What truly made me decide to return these pants though was the droopy crotch. Extra material rubbing between your legs on a long hike is the last thing anyone needs. If they just redesigned the cut to be more how they appear on the models they would be amazing backcountry pants.

I did not expect an extra small to be this baggy on me. It fits like a size 4, which is a very relaxed look on me. There is plenty of room for a person with bulky thighs. Also, the inseam is so high in the back that it awkwardly stilts above the smallest point of my waist. I bought this for a thigh zip pocket accessible during climbing. The pocket is large enough for my phone, but the angle of the zipper is inconvenient with a harness. The fabric seems nice. I don't think I'll buy Rab again if their smallest size is this large.

I have worn RAB pants for years almost every day. I do not like this paid. They do not fit well and the pockets on the side are inconvenient and add to poor fit. I wish you would bring back Women’s Fulcrum Pants. They are my favorite.

I love the fit of these lightweight pants. Adequate stretch, roomy pockets, straight cut legs that fit comfortably inside or outside of my boots. When it’s cold, I can wear a warm base layer underneath, they are so versatile. Waist fits a tad small , so I had to buy a size larger to be comfortable.
Love these pants! Very slimming, comfortable and so well. I enjoy the sleekness of these pants and use them for multiple activities. Finally a pair of pants that are not tights and are not baggy.
These pants will be a replacement for my old hiking pants that I wear to protect from flies and sun. I wanted a pant with belt loops so I could attach bear spray, a zipper pocket and tight or with elastic around the ankles to keep bugs out. These pants have those features and work well. What surprised and disappointed me was that the fabric is not mosquito proof as my old pants are. Also the snaps on the fly are very difficult to do up.
I had high hopes for these pants based on the reviews. I am 5'1" and the smallest option was an XS Regular length. These were at least 4" too long on me and very tight at the bottom so I could not put over my boots if I wanted to use them and bunch them up. Second, the rise is super long so these came up above my belly button and left a strange loose bunching around my hip flexors and crotch that was really unattractive and baggy. Strange because the pant fit everywhere else (butt, thighs, etc). An option for smaller people would be amazing. I looked through all the Incline pant options for hiking/backpacking (light and standard fabrics) and could not find any XXS in short or regular lengths. My hope is that designers will take into consideration that shorter ... MoreI had high hopes for these pants based on the reviews. I am 5'1" and the smallest option was an XS Regular length.

I looked through all the Incline pant options for hiking/backpacking (light and standard fabrics) and could not find any XXS in short or regular lengths. My hope is that designers will take into consideration that shorter athletes have a much shorter rise, like 8" instead of the 10-11" of these and most their pants. If you do make a pant for hiking with a shorter rise please point me to it and I will buy it!! Fabric seems really nice, the colors are great, these just didn't work for me.
Ordered size 10, own 2 other Rab trousers so thought they would fit. Far too big. Have been mis-labelled I think, more like a 14. Had to pay £4 to return them on 27 January. Still no refund 11 days later, 8 Feb. Not good enough. You have £75 of my money.
Very well made pants. Light and comfy, durable. The reason I give 4 stars because they were too big for my wife, although I ordered a right size. Maybe because it's a stretch pants. Beware if you buy stretch you should probably order at least a size down.
So far I really like these pants. I'm tall, and a little curvier through the hips, and I do notice that they are a bit snug there. But the length is wonderful, as I struggle to find hiking pants that fit well. I love the high waist as well. I really like the fabric, which repels water and isn't as "swishy" as many pants I've had.
