Mens softshell pant recommendation

I've had a lot of difficulty finding some softshell pants to purchase, so I was wondering if someone might steer me in the right direction. I'm 5'10" and seem to have a short legs for my height, my inseam is 29" with a waist of 34". Most gear manufacturers even for size 'small' tend to make a 30" or 31" inseam. Ideally I would be looking for something other than black and with some sort reinforcement along the inner calve area to prevent crampon punctures.

Arcteryx , gamma mx grey .

Medium , short I believe are 29 or 30 " inseam . One inch isn't going to make a difference though , OR buy whatever fits and have them hemmed up . OR wear gators .

All my soft shells are a bit long ( maybe 1/2- 1" ) and I very seldom ever snag em with the pons .

You can also contact NW Alpine and have a custom pair of salopettes or pants made to your specs.
I believe there still in business .

And BTW no crampon patch is imune to punctures , better off with gators if your concerned about slicing those $300.00 pants .

Gators will only somewhat protect you from crampon punctures.

NW Alpine Fast/light pants are nice, they come in a grey.

Thanks for the replies. All of those were good options. Looking online I like the arcteryx the best, but will need to try them on in person to be 100% certain about that. I will also keep the NW Alpine in mind in the future.

I just got a pair of Outdoor Research Cirque pants and they were awesome for an overnight on Mt Whitney. Can't say much else though because I've barely used them.

I have very similar inseam and waist dimensions, and I find Arc'teryx "M" standard length soft shell pants fit me the best.

I have some older Marmot Scree pants that came in a short inseam that are pretty nice that come in shorter lengths. REI used to make some as well that came in different lengths.

I second the mountain hardwear (warlow) hybrid pants. Nice and stretchy, slimmish fit perfect for a base layer. They shed water, snow and chalk well. Even comfortable climbing hard in the gym. Wish they had back pockets though.

Prana zion makes 30" inseam which i own and use ... Mostly on rock though

;)

The Marmot Scree pants come in three lengths. They have a 34x30. No crampon patch / guard, you'd have to wear gaiters. marmot.com/products/details…

+1 for the OR Cirque Pants. Slim fitting though, so if you have big thighs avoid these. I like the trim fit. No bagging around the knees or calves. Cinches down around my boots. Has a laces hook. I generally wear them without gaiters. Not a hard shell, though. Will wet through under constant exposure to water. Because it's slim fitting, the hand, thigh & back pockets don't hold much.

I also have the OR Alibi pants which are very similar design but beefier material.

I don't have, but would consider the Mountain Hardwear Mixaction pants. Also narrow down the legs. They're waterproof in the seat (Event material).
