Love the pants, very comfortable. Hard to find pants long enough, but these are! They fit perfectly when the arrived, but 4 stars for shrinking so much in the wash, especially considering there's no cotton in them.

I have a pair of these from years ago. They last and are GREAT travel pants. Unfortunately, I bought "short" and they are not really short. I'm 5'2" and they are too long. I'm keeping them, because they are great otherwise. I'll have to hem them though.

The pants look great and fit but the color did not match what was on Zappos.

I loved the pair I bought a couple of years ago: this pair, though I ordered the same size, fit was a bit tight - unlike the old pair I have. That said, I know to size up. Still love these for casual wear and hiking.

I just use these for every day wear and I love them! They are very comfortable, the one down side is after just a few washes they have begun to pill on the butt. It was pretty disappointing just because of them costing so much and pilling so fast.

I used these as lounge pants after heavy hiking days. Super comfortable and temperature controlled. They handled keeping me warm on a boat trip as well as cool whilst lounging in a hammock!!! My only fault is the short length is more like a regular length. I might need to take them up a fold or two!!! But didn't stop me from wearing them.

I loved these pants when I bought them the first couple of times. When I went to order two more pair they had changed the waistband. The waistband is elastic and stretchy but they've used a different type of thread so the waistband is unable to stretch when you try to get them up over your hips. I had an extra small in the first couple of pairs and they were fine yet the last two pair, I can barely get them on and I weigh exactly the same. Disappointing. It doesn't make sense to have non stretchy thread in this type of waistband. I didn't want to hassle with a return so I kept them but it would be nice if they went back to the old style. They are super cute.

The fit is very comfortable but length is long. I bought 30 inch (short) but is still a bit long. I am 5'4" and it is about 2 inches too long. I was disappointed but kept the pants.

I absolutely love these pants -- prefer the full length to the capri length. I buy multiple pairs each year as I live in fear that they will be discontinued. They are harder to find every year.
Two criticisms:
(1) The sizing shifted a couple of years ago -- waistband was made a couple of inches smaller making these a bit challenging to pull on over hips -- fit on waist was fine, but not fun getting them there -- I wear a small and am a size 2 or small 4 in all brands.
(2) The fabric -- uber-cheap! Not a high tech/performance fabric -- the material pills very badly wherever they make contact with an object -- for example: if you carry a crossbody bag or wear a backpack/small size daypack, the area where the bag or pack touches the pants will be irreparably pilled -- and the pilling is very visible. The only workaround is to replace them and wear the pilled up ones when you know they will rub against other things.
I probably have 12 pairs of these pants in a variety of colours -- some I only where when I am not carrying something -- i.e.: for walking or at the gym, and some I only wear hiking/backpacking since they are already ruined. It's very sad/disappointing to pay $70 for a pair of pants like this and then discover their limitations. the first day you wear them with a pack or bag.
There are plenty of knockoffs that sell at 1/2-1/3 of the price that are made with 100% nylon and do not have the pilling problem (Kyodan, RBX). All the features, and none of the problems...
I like to support The North Face which is why I continue to buy them, but I am nearing the end of my frustration rope

A little long, I had to have them hemmed. They work good for hot weather and are comfortable. Seems like they could snag easily.

I prefer wearing these over shorts in the summer! The fabric breathes well. The waist does not have much give, but in return, they stay put.

These pants fit better than I expected. I've never worn this brand pant before, so I ordered a color in the 2XL and a color in the 3XL. I normally wear a size 18W (My weight is proportional, with extra in the belly, upper butt, inner thighs and calves, which make pants interesting to find a good fit.) The 2XL was more than big enough. With one exception, the rise is too low in the front; wish the front rise was about one more inch. The back rise is just about perfect, though. Great rear end shaping, too, even though the material is thin and comfy. I do not see that this material will pill, as previous reviews have commented. The other issue is I like pants to be long but not too long, so I ordered the 32 inseam as that is the inseam I order for jeans. I will order the 30 inseam next. I have to roll up the 32 in this brand and this style. I am 5'7", and my legs are not long (my body/torso isn't long either, so I'm not sure what's up. Ha.) So far on this hot mid-humid day (it's due to be about 83 degrees today on June 3 in mid MI), these pants are perfect, indoors in an air conditioned office and outside in the humid heat. Not a perfect fit for my body, but better than others. I would recommend because everyone's body is different and this material is pretty great so far. The real test will be how long they last without a seam ripping out in the rear end or front abdomen, and/or where thighs rub.

I buy a new pair every year and the style has evolved each time. I would prefer the waist tie to be on the inside and I like having two zippered pockets. That being said I love the material, it dries very quickly and I like the fit.

i would definitely buy these pants again. They are breathable, lightweight, and well designed. Very versatile, for hiking and athleisure for ambling about the city. Only con is that the elastic on the waist is a bit flimsy.

These pants were even better than I expected! A nice feminine touch on a tech pant. Great fit, with a bit of stretch. Great for exercise, running errands, yard work, and anything else your day may bring!!

Comfortable, look good, lightweight. You can tighten the ankle but it loosens after a while, not a game changer but just a strange system

I got these for walking and hiking. It serves that purpose. They are not comfortable as a cotton jogger but good outdoors.
The adjustable ankle was important to me because I can use it when it's cold and in the summer I can rise up the ends.
Oh and the extra zipper pocket it's a plus because I can put my car keys in and not worry about it falling.

I got these on sale, and they're super comfortable and really great for hiking. The only drawback is that the seams are fraying a bit after only two hikes.
