Quick drying, and loose enough in the crotch for stepping it out on the trail.

I have three of these

They're great for hot weather and pack to basically nothing

Feel great

These are a great pair of lightweight pants with a minimalist design. They’re comfortable and easy to wear, especially in warmer conditions.

My main issues are with sizing, noise, and durability. First, the pants make a noticeable swishing sound when moving around, which can be a bit distracting. Second, the length runs longer than expected. I ordered a 34 Regular (my usual size is 34x30), but the inseam feels closer to a 32, so you’ll likely need to get them tailored.

Lastly, the belt loops could be improved. Mine have already started to fray, so a stronger material like Cordura would help with durability. I’d also prefer a single larger rear belt loop instead of two standard ones, similar to what KÜHL uses, since it tends to hold up better over time.

Very comfortable pants

I bought several pairs of these pants through your online outlet. Very comfortable, well made and true to size. Great value for the price.

Quality & Comfort

The pants are definitely quality. High degree of comfort and easy to move in without restriction. The moisture wicking material makes them great for the outdoors. Lightweight and breathable.

Good pants…

As always beyond makes great products. Pants are true to size. I’m 5’11” 230 with child bearing hips and 36 regulars fit fine. These are very light weight and have great stretch. The two gripes I have is not having two rear pockets and they are a bit noisy. This does complicate my edc setup a bit and severely inhibits my sneaky ninja skills.

My Favorite Pants!

I bought a pair over a year ago for a trip to Colorado. I wore them daily for a week and just freshened them up in streams, etc. They worked out so well that I bought another pair and the pants became my daily wear. They finally got black in my size and now I’m waiting on the brown ones. The pants are very comfortable, clean up fast, dry fast, and hold to abuse. I love these!

I love them but some complaints

Bought these to replace my Velox L5 that tore and are no longer in production.

Pros:
- nicely form fitting without restricting
-move extremely well and don’t pinch
-very VERY breathable (pro or con depending)
-material is very lightweight but has been tough
-belt loops are superb
-internal phone storage in front right pocket is the best I have ever used

Cons:
-quite loud, especially if running. just a constant chaffing sound that you do get used to
-not at all a fan of the semi-elastic drawstring; hard to use and gets in the way of zipping the pants up
-the boot hooks cinch way too tight on your ankle to be worth the discomfort
- the front zipper and button seem to be off center? cause weird feeling when wearing a belt
-one single back pocket is strange and unnecessary but not a big deal because front pockets are very good
-i’ve always worn 32 waist and these 32’s are more like 33-34 but I wouldn’t downsize; fits very well with a belt or even the drawstring without squeezing your legs

Overall a great climbing, running, or semi-formal pant if you can deal with the not-too-obnoxious noise. Definitely recommend an elastic belt like an Arcade Atlas (the belt I use).

Better than expected

These pants are better than I had anticipated. The fabric is much more rugged than I thought . I have climbed in these, hiked in these and even flipped a kayak and ended up swimming in these pants, just washed them air dried and they look brand new ! Their cut is athletic and doesn’t leave excess material to snag on things. Good work all the way around

Awesome pants for all uses, all conditions

I have three pairs of these pants and I use wear them for working out in the gym, everyday wear. they are exceptionally good for anyone running tools (pistols, blades, etc.) Whether you are running appendix or 3 o'clock carry, the waistband and the material really conceals well and minimizes printing.
The only downsize to the material is thermal tranfers, in colder, windy condition you cooldown quickly, but just offset with a baselayer, which works silky smooth with the pants. Also one more butt pocket would be great.

I like these a lot better than my VENTUM ULTRALIGHT L4 PANT.

Too narrow, too long, noisy, returned them!

Let me start by saying I'm a big fan of Beyond clothing, and I own quite a few items, but I was disappointed with these pants. I'm 5'10'' and 165 lbs, and I ordered a 32-inch short, which I've ordered before. The pants were too tight at the calf and an inch longer than my other Beyond pants of the same size! On top of that, they were noisy when I walked. Someone else had made a similar comment:( Sending them back!!

Perfect three-season hiking pant

These are exactly what I was searching for for spring and fall hiking on rugged trails.

You did it

This pant competes with the famous brands (Kuiu, Sitka, and Stone). I used it as a light weight pant and as a base layer during a late season moose trip. The waist band draw string combo work great under a second pair of heavier pants (Velox Light) that are worn with a belt. When they get sweaty on an ascent, the pant wears dry quickly under a top layer. They are just a bit less than quiet.
