Description of Mountain Hardwear Shasta Pant - Women's:
Whether you’re hiking, climbing, or running errands, the Mountain Hardwear Women’s Shasta Pant can keep up with you thanks to double contrast stitching at the front waistband, side and back seams to increase durability. A partial inseam gusset and roll-up hems gives you more freedom of movement. Plenty of pockets on the semi-fitted Mountain Hardwear Women’s Shasta Pant leave you room for your cell phone, keys, MP3 player, and more.
Bottom Line: Versatile pants for anything from climbing high to laying low.
I love these pants. Really soft fabric. Fun seaming on the legs. The waist fits low but not too low. And the legs aren't as baggy and wide as a lot of pants. Definitely not tight but even on a size 10 or 12 fit well on the leg. They fit pretty true to size but do stretch a bit as you wear them so you could consider getting the next size down. Bottom line: flattering, comfortable, lightweight. Great pants.
I really liked the design and fabric, however the size seems completely off. I usually wear a 10 maybe 12, and ordered a bit large, the 12, which I barely fit! Very weird, but had to send it back, extremely tight fit and it felt more like a 6 or 8. Not true to size at all for me.
The Mountain Hardwear Shasta Pant is a great climbing pant. I love the roll up hem, it works well for keeping the pants out of the way. The rise fits higher than I like though, and is more like a regular than low rise. Fit is true to size: 5'2" 113= Small.
