Customer Reviews Arc'teryx A2B Commuter Pants

These pant are really well made and the material feels great in hot humid weather. I have hiked in hot in them and they still breath. So this was surprising since they are marketed as water resistant. They are really well made and stay clean.

Love these pants. Picked them up at the Arc'teryx store and might get another pair. Really well made, none of the stuff that made them look too much like gear in the past. You can ride comfortably and look stylish in the office afterwards too. Work well as a travel pant too!

When I first tried these on I was immediately impressed with how comfortable they were. My second thought as I looked in the mirror was "Dang, I look good" which is a testament to the stylish and sleek design that these pants have. I was really keen that these looked sharp enough that I could wear them to a meeting paired with a button down and no one could really tell the difference. Functionally, after a few months of use I have little to offer for suggestions from the saddle but I am certainly in agreement with several others on here that the zipper fly is awkwardly short. Personally I look forward to adding another color of this pant to my wardrobe.

Just the perfect all round trousers. It's great knowing if I am hit by a shower whilst on my bike, I have the trousers to keep me dry. They look and feel great and you can wear them in most environments. Unlike a lot of similar "outdoor" trousers, these ones feel and look really good. I wear jeans a lot for work and leisure but I can see myself changing the habit of lifetime and wearing these pants all of the time . They are also really light so they pack nicely. I was a bit unsure about the price point but they are worth every penny.

great fit, you can actually ride your bike in these pants unlike some of the skinny "hipster" pants from other companies but these still look fashionable enough to wear to work or going out. Use them for hiking too. Had them two years and they look like new. Has got that unique Arc'teryx style that catches the eye.

the trousers have a smart appearance that colleagues have been impressed with. the material and fit is great and the added length due to the reflectors hasn't been an issue for me despite only having a 31 inch inside leg. The articulation whilst cycling is spot on and you never feel restricted in anyway, whether going flat out downhill or digging in for a climb. The popper system to keep the trouser leg tight and away from the chain works really well and is not noticeable to me when in the office and trousers worn as "normal". The zip pocket is a bit small but Nokia 930 fits fine. Have worn in torrential rain and the trousers couldn't cope but an unfair test really but stayed warm. Have also come off the bike at lights... and no damage to the material. People have mentioned the zip - to me not a problem and is needed I guess to keep the fit and articulation right whilst on the bike.

Excellent pants! Very comfortable material with some great hidden features! Easy to wash and don't require ironing. Very practical!

Ce pantalon convient parfaitement pour les trajets vlo, il est souple et vacue bien la transpiration. Inutile de se changer ensuite, son allure classique permettant de travailler confortablement sans paratre trop dcontract.

I have 3 Pairs of these pants now, great for biking to and from work with no change required.

Je les recommande a tous mes amis Les pantalon sont souple confortable et de trs bonne qualit

Perfect fit, fantastic details. Comfortable to wear with lots of practical features and cool tailoring

What's with Sweden? These pants are perfectly tailored with articulations & gussets for riding a bike. If you ride with a wallet in your back pocket, a top flap (no velcro) helps minimize loss. They are cut long,so you can roll the cuff to expose reflective strips. The long cut does bunch a bit when cuffs aren't rolled up. When the cuffs are rolled up there are cuff snap adjustments to tighten the bottom portion of the leg which keeps it out of the bicycle chain. I wore these pants for 3 hrs during heavy,cold rain & only got slightly damp. The water repellant coating did its job. I was standing the whole time which tends to run water off.

Things I love about these pants - Reflective features - super effective moisture wicking - water beads on fabric surface - light weight Things I don't love - Sizing seems to run a bit small compared to what I'm used to. I recommend buying 1 or 2 inches up.

I bought these a couple months ago and wear them very regularly. They fit well, but the fly is small and high, which makes it necessary to undo the buttons to make it usable. Also the lower half of the leg fits quite snug, my legs are muscular, but not overly so, but these pant legs are a bit tight in the calf area.

These were my go-to pant for just about everything. They are super comfortable and have enough features/pockets to carry my EDC comfortably and still fit in in an office setting. The only problem with these, is the same problem I have with my pair of Stowe pants, is that the gusseted crotch wears out extremely quickly. Both my Stowe and A2B pants have multiple tears from the material fatiguing in approximately 8 months. Granted these I wore very regularly but the Stowe ones I hardly ever wore. That said I am looking to replace the pants now with the same ones even with the durability issues, so they are still a great pant and recommended.

These are great looking causal pants that can easily be worn out or at the office. They are truly a trim fitting pant so be warned if you have thick legs as they fit best on thin-limbed individuals. Given how tight they feel, they are gusseted and do not restrict any movement when walking or riding. The zippered stash pocket is a very welcome addition, given that the front pockets aren't incredibly deep. Reflectors are nice for when you want to be seen.

I initially did not like them but after wearing these for a few weeks, I actually like them better than previous version. The material appears nicer so it looks better in business environments. Its thinner so hopefully they last as long as the older version. I found the buttons on the cuffs of the previous version did not fit my calf and took a long time to do. On the new version, there is stretch so it makes it quick to roll up and will fit any calf. Also, note that i am a 32 in the old version but a 34 in the new one.

Die Hose macht echt einen qualitativ guten Eindruck. Leider ist sie mir zu klein. Ich: mnnlich, 38 Jahre, 191 cm, 86 kg, Hftumfang 98 cm, Schrittlnge bis Knchel 85cm, sportlich/schlank A2B Hose: Gre 32, Bundbreite 42 cm, Schrittlnge 83 cm Fazit: Oben zu eng. Msste um 12 cm weiter sein! Die Hose ist auch viel zu kurz! Msste um gut 8cm lnger sein!

Sehr angenehm zu tragende Hose. Der Stoff ist klasse. Ich vermisse eine zweite Beintasche.

overall I love this pant. They are super comfortable, they are articulated and stretch. Water beads off, the fit is fantastic; allows me to wear a 34 again when for years I have thought I was a 36. Cool reflective features, good pockets. The only major complaint is one that carries through a few of their pant products including the a2b chino... The fly is just too darned short to be practical. Either you put a full fly in that allows proper use of a fly or don't have one at all. The fly doesn't really permit you to fully evacuate because of the male anatomy. The pants force you to lift yourself to clear the opening. This is not natural and results in residual fluids remaining behind, which inevitably drip down your leg after you zip up, which is both gross and uncomfortable. I have no idea why they didn't extend the fly to below crotch level like most pants and it's very frustrating to realize this every time you use the pants. You pretty much have to pull them down to do your business. These are great pants...except when you have to do a number one.
