These are great pants. Fit is perfect and they just feel right. Good at blocking the wind but don't feel heavy. Other pants feel baggy to not be restrictive, these fell like they were custom fit.

These are the best mountaineering pants I have ever owned. Recommend without any reservations or hesitation.

best pant on the market!! great fit, bloked the wind kept me warm but breathed very well so no overheating.water repellent and tough!! well worth the price. great service too, they sent womens by mistake, when we let them know they had the mens in the mail that day and i got them the next day with everything needed to send the others back. super freindly people.!!

I wore these pants for the 4 days on Mt. Ranier under windy and cold conditions and only found them cold for sitting around during the breaks. They performed amazingly well for the climbing sessions and even worked ok for glissading down the slopes on the last day. I did not need a base layer underneath at temperatures around 30 degrees with 30 mile per hour winds, at least while walking.

I purchased these pants as a gift fro my son and the sizing charts were right on. He loves the pants but more important I will definitely rely on the size charts in the future.

Love these pants. I recently wore these pants on an ascent of Mt. Rainier and could not have been more pleased with them. They were extremely comfortable and kept my legs both warm and dry, even when sitting directly on the snow. In fact, they were so comfortable that after getting back to Paradise, I didn't even bother taking them off before driving 3 hours back home.

Incredible pants! I bought these to climb Mt. Shasta and they were perfect. They are light but durable, and have great flexibility for climbing. They held up perfectly when it started to snow, beading away water and keeping me perfectly warm and dry. My only complaint is that the two hip pockets are difficult to access when wearing a harness. Other than that though, very highly recommended.

Great pants! Like the light w/ a wool base layer on cold <20, days of x country. cuts wind. moves well and doesn't bunch up. Like the straps to cinch legs over boots. I am 5'9" and 160 and the length and waist fit great. best soft shell pants i've had yet. better fit than marmot and rei. best of all comes w/ belt.

Just took advantage of the 20% off sale on these. These will be my 3 season hiking/climbing pants here in Colorado. I cannot emphasize just how comfortable these pants are. These prove you don't need baggy pants to have unrestricted movement. I can guarantee these pants will be seeing many summits in the upcoming months.

I just recently purchased this product for a 4-day 40 mile backpack trip in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. I had been looking for a pair of pants that would suit me well in temperatures that were forecasted to range from a low of 35 degrees to a high of 60 degrees. In addition, I wanted a pair of pants that were comfortable and durable. The Mountain Guide Light Pants from First Accent exceeded my expectations in every capacity. Peter Whittaker wasn't embellishing when he said that he doesn't want to take the Mountain Guide Light pants off after a trip. These pants were warm enough when it was cold out (I just added a pair of base layer pants) and perfectly comfortable when temperatures neared 60 degrees. The material is a perfect balance of comfort, warmth, and breathability. I can't explain how comfortable these pants are. They are as comfortable as a set of Egyptian Cotton sheets, yet as durable as a pair of Wrangler jeans. I absolutely love them and HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM to anyone that is looking for a great pair of pants. I compared these pants to similar brands in depth before purchasing them, and none of the other manufacturers put anywhere near the level of thought into their designs like First Ascent did with the Mountain Guide Light Pants. These pants are remarkable!
