Very impressed with the quality of these pants. They are true-to-size and comfortable to wear. The venting on the legs is better than many riding pants I've had in the past.

The pants have a comfortable design, they look amazing. However, the thin fabric choice in some areas detracts from their durability. Positives: 1. Price - the price was great. 2. Appearance - the color choice of white and blue is very striking, the wavy pattern looks like ripples in the sea. 3. Ventilation - it has big knee vents, and perforations in the groin. 4. Features - I like the side straps, zipper and front ratchet, leather knee pads, and internal hip pads. Negatives: 1. No pocket - it would be easy to put just one pocket in these pants without compromising the design. A pocket for a phone or spare gloves would be ideal for us trail riders. 2. Thin Knee fabric - the fabric on the shins is tough, but on the knees there is a thin stretchy material. MX pants should NOT have thin fabric on knees which receive a lot of wear. Big design mistake. Conclusion: The pants look amazing - the color matches my bike. They are comfortable too. But the shockingly thin fabric in key areas of heavy wear, causes me to worry about how long these pants will last.

I've loved them especially for the price, but the seat contact area has been wearing away quicker than expected with not that many rides in them. Overall a good pant though.

I purchased these because I was riding single track trails in my work uniform. Rode in them one day. Now I could go on and on about the quality which I was pleasantly surprised. This is how good I thought they was, I came in off that ride and bought my son the same thing before they went off sale. They are a little stiff till you break them in but so far limbs, briars or anything else has not phased them at all. You can grip the bike good with your knees and move very well in them. They seem thick enough to take the beating I will give them. Been on 3 rides so far and other than dirty they look like they did when I got them.

Great pants. These are the second MSR pants I've purchased and they work fine. Nice and lightweight.

These pants feel like they are up to the the job of protecting me from the elements. Minimal armor in the knees, none in the hips where you need them. I like the abrasion resistant patches on the knees but I don't like the pockets. Waterproof pockets are on top of the thigh and are too small for a large phone but OK for a wallet. The regular side pockets keep everything right in your crotch. Sizing is spot on if you want them to fit like jeans. I recommend going a size up if you plan on not riding commando. Vents are minimal and the forward facing top vents are small and might allow airflow while standing but probably not while sitting on a bike. Have not tried them yet, however.
