Marmot Motion Pant

The Motion Pant has been discontinued. If you're looking for something new, check out the best waterproof pants for 2025.

Overall these pants are pretty darn good for their price. I would definitely recommend them to anybody looking for a strong entry level pant.
Pros
- Lightweight
- Inexpensive
- Comfortable
Cons
- Slightly long for my liking
- Sometimes pockets are tough to open
I bought these pants today mainly for short day hikes and geocaching. Well, I got out to do some geocaching today. It was high 20s-low 30s out and a few inches of snow on the ground. I'm a 36 waist 30 long, and XL was WAY too big. I tried on the L and waist was slightly tight but tolerable. The length was slightly long but probably ok when you have winter boots on I only had Merrell Moabs on.
They are very versatile pants, rather lightweight and very easy moving. Pockets are rather large and have a very soft lining to protect phones or GPS's. The articulated knee works excellent for jumping over downed trees and such.
Overall I would recommend these pants to anyone looking for a descent pair of pants. Not at a bad price either. I bought these on sale at Ramsey Outdoors, they were 20% off so I paid $116.
