Rating: rated 4.5 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $195

Nice pants, a little pricey but I'm sure it'll last me for years to come. Unlike Arc'teryx jackets, I was surprised to see it was made in China.

They are light and easy to put on, I haven't tried them yet in the rain as the storm has passed. They are a little tight if you're wearing them over jeans but it doesn't seem to restrict your movement. They have leg zipper up to the knee and a clip at the bottom of the front leg to hook on to your shoe, nice little touch.

Overall a nice pant, just have to wait for the rain now.
