Poor design
Marc in WA
Comments On Apr 30, 2013:I receive this pant and was initially impressed with the materials and workmanship. However upon closer inspection there is some very thin and flimsy "expansion" material sewed in amongst the other tougher materials. The expansion material is like something that would be found in an inexpensive womans knitted sweater. The expansion materials at the knees is what touches the ground when you kneel down. There is no way this will hold up when workig around a bike, or in a get off. I am at a loss as to why they would put such cheap material in vulnerable, high wear, high impacts areas.

Great pant!
Mike in NV
Comments On Apr 22, 2013:These are seriously solid pants. I've run a lot of OTB pants in the past and these are by far the best cut. The gussets in the legs and crotch make a HUGE difference. Good wind protection and stay warm in the winter. The vents are about 15" long so they do ok in the summer too. If you're riding only hot weather get the mesh ones though.

Best looking,functional motorcycle pants I own
Roy in IN
Comments On Apr 16, 2013:To say I was impressed with these pants for the price is an understatement. Quality materials and stitching throughout. The leather on the inner legs is soft and has subtle grahics stitched in. I wear a 34 pant and a 34 fits perfectly. Windproof when the vents are closed, and vents well with them open. A waterproof liner would have made thes the perfect all around 4 season pant. I think I'll take a look at the KLIM traverse for a waterproof pant. KLIM makes top-of-the lind motorcycle gear!

Great pants!
BERT in AB
Comments On Apr 09, 2013:Well built pants. Super comfy. Ton of optional ventilation. Not waterproof. Beefy material and large pockets. Knee made of stretchy material and can melt in contact with muffler (what else is new)... I am 6'2" and normally take 34 waist and 34 in-seems. The waist is perfect but the length is a little short. Consider their "tall" version if you have long legs.

Great pants from a Quality Manufacturer
Justin in OH
Comments On Apr 06, 2013:These pants work great for ATV use. They are roomy enough through the thighs and lower legs for unrestricted movement around the quad. I mainly use these pants for aggressive trail / cross country style riding. The light grey color looks good and the long thigh zippers provide plenty of venting. These work good at temperatures and conditions up to 85 degrees...after that I would switch to the Mojave pants. Klim makes great products...with over 16 of their garments in my closet (for ATV and Snowmobiling)...I haven't had a complaint yet.

hopefully will last!
MARK in CO
Comments On Apr 01, 2013:only 4 long rides so far. Fit is great. I wear a 32 pants, and these fit very true. Great having pockets. Seemed a little heavy when I opened them, but one ride and I love them. Very form fitting to the boot, warm, but vented if you need it. Great value at the price.

Great pants but sizing is strange.
Michael in NM
Comments On Mar 08, 2013:I wear a size 34 jean so I generally order a size 34 pant if there are no sizing guides. When the pants came in and I tried them on I could fit in them when adjusted all the way out but not comfortable enough in the waste that I could see myself riding with them on all day. The length on the other hand was almost perfect. I returned the pants for a size 36. The size 36 pants fit great in the waste with a little bit of adjustment but now feel the pants are a smudge too long. The knee "armor" is slightly below by knee. I'd rather take a little bit too long and be comfortable in the waste. The pants themselves are very nice. Stretch panels where they are needed, the vents open nice and wide, the pockets are deep.

Great fit, comfort, finish
Randy in Tennessee
Comments On Feb 27, 2013:These are my second set of Klim pants but first pair of Dakars. So far, I've only worn them for a cold day of riding at 30-48 degrees with nothing more than heated pant liners underneath, no jeans or sweats. I only needed 30-40% heat during the coldest part of the ride. These are windproof enough for good comfort on a cold day but they breath very well.
The vents are very large and ample and should provide great comfort in the heat. There are exhaust vents that are always open but they did not let in any cold drafts. The pants fit well over my knee armor and the patterned leather side panels on the insides of the thighs provide a good grip on the tank,
So far, so great! Fit, finish and all day comfort on a 275 mile ride doing pavement and gravel, If they vent and perform well in summer heat, they will be ideal.

Great Product
florent in CA
Comments On Feb 21, 2013:Just bought one before a ride to Mojave last week. Great product. Fit is perfect, seems very strong and abrasion resistant. Very comfortable, especially the stretch inserts in groin and knee area make it forget your are wearing them when you seat. The vents work GREAT. Side pockets are useful. Must remove knee pads if you wear knee braces. Excellent product, will buy them again when they wear-out.

ok at best
JOHN in CO
Comments On Aug 05, 2011:While these pants are well designed with features, the stitching in multiple areas started to fail on the first ride. First pair of pants I have had to sew to keep together and they only have two months of riding on them. Disappointed for the price and the reputation Klim seems to have.

Nice Quality with Good Ventilation
KELL in WA
Comments On Jun 28, 2011:I never could ride with outside the boot style pants until I tried these. Velcro closure allows the legs to be closed tight around my boots so as to not snag on the pegs. Works well in winter and summer due to the venting. Only complaint is after one summer some stitching was coming loose.

Great Pant
Dale in OR
Comments On Apr 05, 2011:These pants are top quality and fit fantastic. They would be a little warm for summer riding but perfect for fall and spring riding in Oregon.

Bomber pant
CHRISTOPHER in UT
Comments On Nov 08, 2010:great pant so far with good zippered thigh vents which really extend the temp range for these pants. The multiple velcro strips on the ankle let you snug them around your boot so not to catch on foot pegs etc, and yet not have some poochy bunching going on. The leather inside of the knees has held up to hot pipe contact and shows minimal wear.

High Quality
Craig in AE
Comments On Aug 19, 2010:Normally I'm not an over the boot fan but this pant has changed my mind. It fits perfectly over the boot and cinches up nice and tight with the velcro adjusments. I'm 5'11" tall and the inseam is just right in a 32" waist size. The quality is very good and the fit is outstanding, I would highly recommend.
