Description of Mountain Hardwear Runout Pant - Men's:
The relaxed-fit Mountain Hardwear Men's Runout Pants are a burly barrier between you and rough rocks. Heavy-duty Crag Canvas looks new after climbing outdoors all season. The built-in Mountain Hardwear webbing belt and low-profile waist won't get in the way of your harness or chalk bag, and drawcord cuffs keep your pants dry when your approach takes you through a stream. The two rear pockets and the side pocket all zip shut so you can climb without losing your wallet and car keys.
Bottom Line: Sturdy pants for crag climbing in cool weather.
I like this pants, they are conmfy and the material is durable. I like the small pocket on the side that I use to carry my phone. Unfortunately, Mountain Hardwear makes pants by Small, Medium, Large, etc. instead of using waist measurements. The pants are too big for me, but can't go the smaller size because it would be too small. I wish Mountain Hardwear would make sizing better.
One thing that is kinda hidden is the elastic adjuster around the bottom of the pant for when you need to hike up your pant when your climbing or heading to school and you don’t want your pant gunked up with grease. They are true to fit, don't worry about some weird sizing.
Mountain Hardware is the best. The fit of these pants are like other MH items-- you need to try them before you know for sure...
I have Three Small MH Canyon pants and they fit my 29 inch waist, 29 inch inseam perfectly. I bought these in the small size, and the waist is perfect but the inseam is closer to 31-32. I normally would just get these adjusted BUT they have drawcord cuffs, and the seams on the knee pockets now run low enough to start chaffing my knee caps. The pants are really, really well-made so I've giving them 4 stars. The fit should be more predictable with inseam size choices!
