MEN'S BEYOND THE WALL ROCK PANTS

The pants are awesome. The only thing is that they're climbing pants, and the fabric feels like I may get a hole in them if I hit the rocks the wrong way with my leg. Haha, it's made me more careful as I climb. Maybe it's added to my technique?

Regardless, for the price, I thought the material would be a tiny bit more durable feeling. Though, I'm sure that would be a blow against breathability. Meh. I like these pants, so nbd.

Very comfortable when I go rock climbing in them, they don't restrict my range of motion in my legs. I also love wearing them around town.

I typically wear a 35 or 36 waist. After reading other reviews, I bought a 34. Wore them once in the climbing gym and even with a harness on, I felt like my butt was hanging out there (and I don't mean climbing wise). The lack of a drawstring, belt loop or even Velcro to sinch up the waist is stupid. Pants are going back for sure.

It feels really confortable, really good pants for climbing! However, I used to wear size 32 and I bought 30 because everybody says that they are really big. Still, they look kind of too large, so I guess 28 would have been a good guess.

For the past 3 years ive climbed in the Prana climbing pants and was looking for something new. I feel like a lot of people are familiar with those pants so I'll compare and contrast them.

Pros: the north face pants are more form fitting (if you're into that that). they cinch around the ankles which i like to do to make sure my pants don't get in the way for heel hooks and toe hooks. They don't have button snaps on the legs, i never liked that the Prana pants had that because sometimes they'd press into my leg during yoga or something. They're a lot lighter so i feel like i could wear them in warmer weather.

Cons: the fabric feels a bit less durable than the Prana pants. There is no way to tighten the waist on the north face pants. The ankle cinch system can be annoying, the extra cinch that is created from tightening makes a big loop that you need to tuck into your pants.

Summary: the north face pant is lighter, more form fitting, and has ankle cinches which the Prana pant does not have. That is what's convinced me to buy them. I'm super happy with my purchase and the only thing that seems to be an issue is I'm worried how long the pants will hold up because the fabric is lighter and less durable.

These pants are perfect climbing gym and outdoor pants. They are slim enough to stay out of the way and light and flexible so you don't notice them. Only issue is that the sizing is WAY off. I had to take ~3 inches off my normal waist size to get a pair that fit.

Also the orange version looks awesome.

Overall these pants are awesome. They have a great material for climbing (seem durable and flexible), and a cool design. I would order a size down for sure, the pants are pretty big around the waist and no way to tighten. Unfortunately, I had to return my 32's and am waiting to get a 30 in black.

Over all I love the pants. Based off the reviews I ordered a 34 (normally a 36) and I was swimming in the 34 so I returned them and ordered a 32 and they fit perfectly. So whatever size you think you are based off the reviews get an extra size down.

I'm a North Face athlete, and I helped design these pants. I've used them a ton for both gym climbing and training, as well as outdoor climbing. The production waist sizing is on the big side, so I suggest you size down by a single size. These pants look really good, are very comfortable, and have held up very well with a lot of use.
