The Best Hiking Pants

By:
May 9, 2012

I can never find nice hiking pants that fit well - I am 5'7", 155lbs, pear-shaped (thin waist and a full gluteus). I HATE that most women hiking pants don't have the elastic around the waist that guy hiking pants do. For me, since my waist is small, the elastic around the waist is one of the things I looked for because I don't want to have my undies showing. That is why I am EXTREMELY happy and pleased with these pants because they fit perfectly around the waist. As far as the length, I thought they were a bit long, but then I put on my hiking boots and it turned out that the length is also perfect (not too short, not too long). I wish they had these in more colors (I bought the Dune Beige) because I would buy them in a heartbeat.

Nice, but a little thin.

I just received these and was a little anxious to try them on. I have never bought any of TNF's pant before, and I wasn't able to try them on before buying them.

That said, I am 5'8" about 150lbs (normally 145 but have put weight on this winter)

I normally wear a 6 in jeans, but after reading how TNF's pants normally run small I went with a M/Long. They seem to be just the right length. I like my pants to cover my shoes and I think these will be just right.

They fit a little tight through the thigh, but not so much that they are uncomfortable.

All in all, they fit well and I really like them. The only reason I withheld a star was because I wish they seemed a little sturdier. Only time will tell on that, since I've had them less than 30 minutes!
