Patagonia Simple Guide Pant - Men's
Brand : PatagoniaItem : PAT0816
Patagonia used three-layer H2No nylon material and stitchless construction to give the Men's Simple Guide Pants bomber weather protection at a low 11-ounce weight. These waterproof breathable Patagonia pants have full-length sidezips to let you change while you still have on mountaineering boots and to allow easy ventilation on the go. A single hip pocket gives you a place to stash your micro headlamp and doubles as a stuff sack to store the Simple Guide Pants on the approach. These simplistic Patagonia alpine pants have elastic cuffs to keep the snow out of your boots and let you save weight by leaving your gaiters at home.

Patagonia Simple Guide Pant - Men's
Simple Guide Pants
Normally I'm a fan of Patagonia's products but this one has left me dissapointed. The fabric does not breath well, has a small window of temperatures where it's comfortable, and the drawstring has an inadequate fastener and the pants keep slipping down - especially with a harness on!
Patagonia Simple Guide Pants
I find the pants to be very breathable for me and a good fit, however there are a number of improvements that Patagonia should make: (1) Get rid of the drawstring with the cord lock. The pants do not stay up on me when I am wearing a pack, and the cord lock slips. (2) Put deeper pockets in the thighs so that you can get your hands in them and things don't fall out when unzipped. Both of these features are found in the Guide Pants which I rate much superior and of heavier material making them better for cooler weather use.
