Anyone have experience with these? Are they durable at all? I feel like they would rip really easy.
In the market for a new pair of climbing pants, don't like the fit of the zions.

They're the bomb diggity for hot desert climbing! I've got a few little rips and holes from climbing up chimney but they've held up really well (probably worn them +100 days of climbing). I'll get them again.

What don't you like about the zions fit? I thought they were too baggy and wear the brions instead. I would recommend the brions, the bummer is that they're less featured, however, the material is great. No built in belt and no snaps on the legs may be a deal breaker for some. I'm also curious about the ferrosi.

I've got a pair of Ferrosi pants. Probably have 75 or so days of climbing, hiking and bumming around on them. The material is quite thin but has held up great so far (no offwidths though). A plus is they are super comfy in hot weather. I need to wear a belt with mine.

I'm also curious about the ferrosi. I can't remember specifically now, but I've tried them on a couple of times for sure. Stoked to give the ferrosi a try. They definitely fit me better.

Probably logged about 200 days in them. I love them, though by now there's holes in two of the pockets and small tears in the knees. Not Carhartt durable, but about what I'd expect for what they've been through.

Take a look at the OR voodoo pants. They are slimmer and less baggy than the Prana Zion but probably twice as thick as the Ferrosi pants with the same amount of stretch. I have two pairs of voodoos and they are awesome.

I'm on my second pair. They have a life time warranty... so in that sense they are durable.

Ferrosi Crag pants, better than the standard Ferrosi pants. Waist draw cord replaces belt. Reinforced knee and hip panels. Highly recommended

I have a hard time with OR fit myself. The waist is always too wide and the legs are always too short. If they fit you though you will probably like them.
