Customer Reviews Western Rise Evolution Pants

Great stretch and comfort. When water hits the pants, it will turn dark and not run off completely. But appears to dry fast. Light weight. Good fit

Pants are comfortable and do go from office to hiking to moderate workouts. My only complaint is that the legs are tight like a tight pair of jeans. So when you stand up, you have to push them down. Maybe they were designed that way but I don't know.

They seem very high quality, actually the closest pants I've found to Outlier SDs, but the fit was bit on the tight side. Looking forward to getting my exchanged pair (which was completely painless). Great product and customer service.

I gambled on the Kickstarter and have to say these are pretty nice. I love the fabric, but it does seem to collect dust/pet hair easier. These are just a hair baggy to me, could use a slim fit. For reference, I like the Eddie Bauer Horizon pants, but I size down from them. Prana's stuff I cannot wear unless tailored. Love the 5 pocket/jean style because normal pants have my pens and keys slide out. I don't actually like the cell phone pocket since it's on the wrong side of how I carry my stuff. I very much utilize the smaller pocket on my jeans. The gusset is great. Longevity is still up in the air but seems promising. Pricing non-kickstarter is feeling iffy. Most other pants don't have this same pseudo jean look. They dry super quick, as expected of the material. I'm short, so no 28" inseam is a bummer, have to get it hemmed, but not really a knock.

The pants are light and comfortable. As a major flaw, however, the waist band does not stretch like the rest of the material. Why is that? Also, the charcoal color is more a 95% black than charcoal.

I'm 5 foot 9 with an athletic build and I typically wear pants with a 34-35 inch waist depending on the brand. I assumed these pants would be quite slim so I ordered a size 36 to be safe. I was surprised when the 36s were too snug around the waist. - so I exchanged them for size 38 (first time I've ordered a size 38 pant). The 38s were a little too baggy but I was able to take them to a tailor to get fitted properly. In the end, I spent about $200 (pant + tailoring) to get the pants I was hoping to receive with my original order. Bottom line: Top notch pant design and material quality. Finding the proper size can be a challenge depending on your body type.

Like the pants. My only negative feedback is that I like the weight of the AT Slim Rivet Pant better. The Evolution Pant is a little too lightweight for my taste. Personal preference.

I love the pants but the main flaw is the waistband that is too too tight. It does not stretch at all compared to the rest of the material. Also, their view of charcoal is actually 95% black. I can live with the color but I had the waistband replaced by a tailor by a stretching one.

The Evolution pant really is pretty great. The fabric is light and fit overall is very comfortable. The additional security pocket on the right front is a nice touch. It is large enough for my smartphone and I can crouch down without it getting in the way. The one downside in my particular case: I am between sizes, and since there are only even sizes, the one I chose is a bit snug, I'm concerned the next size up would be too big. I'd advocate for providing odd sizes for those of us who are between the even sizes! Other than this, the Evolution Pant is a winner!

The Evolution pants are so satisfactory in fit and function to the degree of ultimate frustration considering the opportunity to ONLY purchase one pair in my size (36/30) in a color I did not specifically want. Unfortunately, customer service has indicated restock of my size in any of the offered colors is iffy for the rest of 2019. Sort of an ecstasy and agony situation that should have been avoidable. Cheers!

Solid pants overall, but some of their great attributes (eg, weight/thickness) can also act as a downside. Pros: Very lightweight, mild stretch, versatile enough for work and play, and they do pack up into very small size. Cons: They do not look like cotton as one reviewer described. Slight sheen is visible, and have just a bit of that 'plastic bag' look that many tech pants come with Thin enough that my (ahem) 'member' shows more than I'd like it to (perhaps you see that as a good thing if you like making others around you a bit uncomfortable) I think the 'good for travel' description of these assumes you are traveling to warmer climates Not really the pants' fault but I do wish these came in odd waist sizes Overall these are very good pants and worth the price tag, but I still prefer the fit and look of the Slim Rivets.
