Arc'teryx

Cronin Cotton Pants

Men's

As I may have mentioned in a previous review for this website, Arc'teryx seems to be one of the few brands (if not the one) that truly "gets" my body type, which, I'd like to think, is rather average (and certainly not one of a professional outdoor athlete, far from it). In other words, the fit, especially the length (long inseam), is perfect, especially in combination with the material used, which allows for a wide range of movements, among other benefits. I should not that I have yet to use these pants for its intended purpose, that is, bouldering (inside or in the gym), but I expect it would confirm this impression. (I will test it soon.) It certainly performs well in my daily life (knowledge work involving a bike commute all year round), and it is not too casual for my line of work. It reminds me of a pair of Gamut pants that I used for several years starting around 2005, 2006, which also quickly became my go-to, do everything pants. They held up really well, and I assume this will also be the case for these pants. They are, clearly, not cheap, but then again, if used they way I use them, these costs will be offset by the experience of happy ownership and greal pants for years to come.

Love the fit and comfortable material. 6'3" 190 lbs. the 34R are perfect. Only thing I would like is a built in belt. Great job Arc'teryx!

The Cronin Cotton Pants have a clean, classic look with the comfort you expect from Arc'teryx. The cotton fabric feels soft yet substantial and has a quality weight that drapes well. They are easy to move in and comfortable enough for all-day wear, whether at work, traveling, or out around town. They strike a nice balance between casual and refined, which makes them versatile for many situations. The fit is flattering without feeling tight, and the build quality is excellent. These have quickly become a go-to choice when I want something that looks good and feels even better.

I love these pants!! I have large thighs and struggle to find pants that fit me comfortably. Often I will have to buy pants 1 or 2 waist sizes too large just so I can be comfortable through the thigh. These pants leave plenty of room yet the waist still fits true to size; it's very freeing to not require a belt! The material is soft and perfectly stretchy. The style is awesome, love the extra pockets. I waited to review these until I'd washed them a few times as I've had issues with colourfastness with other Arcteryx fabric pants and after 4 washes I'm happy to say that this is not an issue with this line. I would buy these again for sure.

very comfortable
