Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Cronin Pants

Unboxing at first sight they are coyote ugly. Trying them on is the perfect fit which Arcteryx made famous. They sit at the waist so they don't pull on my S-1 L-5 vertebrae unlike 501 blue jeans. Its sidelined Levi's. So comfortable I'm reminded to take them off when dressing up, going out or doing public events. They 're less photogenic owing to canvas fabric's generous cut. But man they rock like a Honey Badger. The unique feature of its 60's style short rise (drop if you are a designer); you need be very well endowed to use the zipper. Otherwise, unbuttoning the waistband will be your go-to.

Already own the Palisade and Lefroy and wanted a beefier pant. This one is perfect. It is cut much fuller than the others, but works. Only regret is it lacks a "phone" pocket

Jeans on steroids. Love the fit and the quality of the materials. Had a lightweight pair for about five years (and still going) with the same cut. Expect longer from these.

This brand continues to impress. Exceptional quality and always worth the money.

My favourite pants ever. So comfortable! The gussets are perfect

These pants are perfect for warmer weather when denim is to heavy and hot. The fit is perfect and the pants articulate well for an active lifestyle.

Well built, comfortable, ergonomically functional for all around pants for Fire/EMS/Duty/Weekend Warrior/Standard Issue Dad Detail/Playing a variety of sports with my kids on the go. The Good. Very comfortable, durable, functional; well executed design and construction. To draw reference; much more comfortable and ergo than a pair of Levis 514, but more than twice the price. Appropriately designed pockets make it easy to remove items with little effort/friction and not have to adjust upper body. They passed the Squat test; appropriately constructed in the knees to prevent the back side from exposing the crack. The downside of these beauties is that they are tapered from the hip to the waist. Which means they are meant to be worn pulled all the way up, much like women's pants or appropriately dress pants. Personally, if I wear pants this high it aggravates my lumbar spine, so I'm forced to wear pants at the hip. This tapering is a little deceiving because the run of the zipper is a little short, which is characteristic of pants that are meant to be worn at the hip. Depending on a variety of factors if you wear the Cronin pants all the way up you could appear to be splitting rocks. Additionally, if pulled up they will appear to have a short inseam. If you do go against the design and decide to let them sit on your hips you will find you need to go up a size in the waist or they will fit a size tight.

Diese Hose ist sehr bequem und angenehm auf der Haut. Ich laufe damit bis zu 30 km am Tag und kann sie nur empfehlen.

If in any doubt about what pants to by these will cover the full range! Use them for my city trips as well mountain walking/climbing. Very soft and comfortable design!

To start off this review, I want to first suggest that future buyers should buy a size down from their normal waist size. I am 150 lbs and 5'11" with a 30 inch pant size and the 30" size for the Cronin Pants are large. Some warm washing and drying does shrink the pant size, but it is still to consider the downsizing. The pant's fabric is soft, lightweight, as it can be worn in relatively warm summer days, but feels and acts as durable as far heavier canvas pants. The overall quality of the pants shines and it feels well-made and crafted with care. The articulation and cut of the pants leaves a continuously loose, but not too loose, fit to the pants. They seem both relaxed as fitted at the same time, with no infringement of leg mobility and flexibility. These pants thrive in both the city life, as well as the outdoors, for chores or light activities. An additional pocket near the knees, like many competitors' pants would be a great addition. Besides that, honing in the waist size's accuracy would be a great goal for these pants.

Great pants! I Owen several pairs and love the fit and durability. I would recommend the to anyone looking for an alternative to jeans.

Bought these to replace my Craghoppers and am not dissapointed. Deep pockets, nice heavy feel and great fit every where. I have solid thighs so don't like tight fitting trousers. I wear these for work and they are very comfortable.

Not a thin nylon pant but durable cotton blend that feels good.

I purchased these to serve several functions: 1. To replace various pairs of convertible pants that were 100% nylon (don't get me wrong...the nylon brand name convertible pants are great; just the styling is not ideal) 2. To replace my go to pair of jeans 3. To be my go to after work and weekend pants to play with my two young boys outside (read this as needing durability, freedom of motion, and ability to go out in public) My early read is that these pants have met all three purposes well.

Great pants - ideal for the office or for the hill, even in the same day ! These are my go-to pants for whatever the day will throw at me....keep up the great work Arcteryx!!

These pants seem like they will hold up very well. The waist and length are true to size but the pants do run a little loose.I love this but you may not. I am 5' 10" and weigh 185 I feel I can wear these pants anywhere I go and not be over or underdressed. Great quality

I have been wearing these and the more similar Bastion for years. These are more ruggud and able to last. My biggest gripe is that they don't make enough. I have worn out many pairs of their pants in the field and wish I could have more. The problem is YOU CANT FIND THEM ANYWHERE IN NORMAL SIZES.

I bought these to wear around town and to wear to work. They're nice and thick without being stiff and they're very comfortable. I've got big thighs and a larger posterior which can make finding pants difficult. These fit just right and are easy too move around in without looking like I'm wearing sweats.

Love these pants. They have a very comfortable loose fit, the fabric is comfortable indoors and out. The large front accessory pocket is the perfect size for a cell phone. This is the best feature of the pants. All pants should have a pocket like this! I now have five pairs of Cronin pants so I can wear them daily in the emergency room. The blue is surprisingly versatile- goes with everything. Thanks Arc'teryx for making these pants!

Great pants for cold and windy weather. Spent 3 hours outdoor mostly sitting, they kept me warm enough to not make me go home earlier. Good protection from wind. Fit is perfect.

I own several pairs of Bastion pants, but wanted something for cooler weather. The Cronin pant has a similar but different fit, more roomy than the Bastion, and the heavier material is definitely warmer. The rear pockets are deeper than the Bastion pant, so my wallet feels more securely in place. The stitching, button closure, and zipper are all very sturdy, and several trips through the washing machine hasn't fazed these at all. I've yet to buy an Arc'teryx product I've been disappointed with.
