Comfortable - but watch out for the fit

Bought these as an alternative to the polycotton Kiwis. Really like the stretch and the fabric is very comfortable to wear, even when wet. Not sure about durability - I suspect they're not as good as the regular Kiwis, based on experience so far. However, don't buy these without trying-on first as the sizing is very different to the non-stretch Kiwi trousers e.g my 36R size is much tighter on the waist (even allowing for stretch) and shorter on the inside leg. I can't understand why manufacturers can't be more consistent ...
Pros:
Comfortable, Breathable, Quick Drying, Well Constructed
Cons:
I LOVE these pants!

Don't get me wrong I love these pant! But the biggest draw back I the durability. Because of the stretch fabric the pants snag easily on thorns and sharp branches. plus if you slide on your butt down rocks or trees the fabrics wears down. But although the added flexability of the fabric has its disadvantages it also allows your to move freely unlike any other pair of pant I have ever owned. I can rock climb fully extended with out the pants ever ripping. My advice is to buy two pair. One to do your outdoor activities in and another to wear out on the town.
Pros:
Comfortable, Breathable, Innovative Technology, Lightweight, Plenty of Pockets, Stylish, Quick Drying, Well Constructed

Lovely trousers, a very comfortable fit and well put together. The size was perfect for me and the stretch fabric allows free movement without them appearing baggy. Easy to wear walking, cycling or spending a day in the office. Loads of pockets, many of them zipped or velcroed for security.
Pros:
Comfortable, Breathable, Hard Wearing, Lightweight, Plenty of Pockets, Quick Drying, Well Constructed
