durable climbing pants
|
I've been going through climbing pants super quickly when scrambling and climbing a lot. Any recommendations? I'd love something that looks like my favorite carhartts but stretches. |
|
I had some dickies that were very similar to carhartts but stretched a little, were pretty cheap too. |
|
wranglers are as cheap as they are stretchy. |
|
I've had good luck with the OR Wadi Rum pants, only pair of pants that survived my climbing and field work season last year without major damage. My other two pants aren't looking so great, Vedauwoo and barbwire maybe aren't friendly to clothing. |

I second the Wrangler Outdoor products, they've held up to a lot of off trail bushwhacking and are made from the same stretchy fabric as Prana for a fraction of the price. About $21 at Walmart. |

For general climbing I really like the E9 pants, you can check them here shope9.com/collections/mens…; |

Rab Torque. Super durable but are not light weight and super breathable like some listed here. They are super stretchy though. |
|
Wrangler Outdoor. Holds up to chimney abuse better than some pairs of jeans I've climbed in. |

Marmot Scree. Thick stretchy soft shell pants. If you have pets don’t buy Stretch Zion |
|
If your climbing a lot it don’t matter, they are gonna blow. I stopped buying climbing brand pants and started going to good will. |
|
Arborwear. |

Like mentioned above, Kuhls are great. The issue is with granite, I've had it slice right through my pants but I just go to REI and get that material to patch em up. |

Seconding Foehn - I have a few pairs and they feel burly as hell. Have held up to OW thrashing in J Tree. Also stylish as hell. |
