Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I was so excited to find these pants in the STP store. Generally technical pants have a fit for women with slender hips, and these ones fit curves! I bought them for an Alps trek, but have been wearing them in the Sierra on very warm days to get an idea of the comfort range. The lighter stone color is great for summer. I'll save the black ones for fall / winter. They're breathable yet windproof. I haven't been in the rain with them, but splashing through creeks water seems to roll right off, even after a couple washes. I'll have to hand wash them a few times, and I don't doubt that they'll dry super fast. I would say the waist is true to size, but the hips would run large on some women. My only complaint, as others have mentioned, is the way the hand pockets gape open. I understand why they're placed where they are (below hip belt) but I had a friend sew them shut. And the soft waist lining is amazing.

RUNS Large, Strange fit

Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I re-ordered size 8 and they fit really well, quite full in the hips and lowrise waist is pretty generous cut as well. would not fit everyone right for sure. they tend to run large. i originally ordered a 10. but the 8 size shorts are too tight. love the fabric and comfort, plenty long for 5'4". i have 2 pair of long pants and 2 pair of the shorts. shorts are very comfortable as well, but sizing is off.
