“Looks to Be a Good Waterproof Pant”

“Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to use it in the rain so I cannot comment on its ability to shed water. However, if it is anything like the Cloudveil Zorro jacket that I purchased, it should shed water like water rolling off a duck's back. I will comment on the fit and features on the pant. The pant seems to fit true to size both in the waist and the inseam. Even though the inseam was a bit long for me, the ability to use the two different snaps at the bottom of the pants cuff allowed me to control the baginess at the cuff, and prevent the any excess fabric from getting in my way. The pant has a single back pocket that zippers, and it was a welcome addition to the pant design, but it felt a "tad" small, so folks with large-sized wallets, or folks that want to carry more gear than a wallet back there might find it a tight fit. These pants only have a partial side zipper at the lower leg, not a full-side zip, so they are not as easy to get on/off without taking off one's boots. But for the price, this is to be expected. Additionally, the top waist band not only comes with elastic, but it also has belt loops so one can thread another belt through them, to keep the pants from sliding down. (I guess this is Cloudveil's, ahem, "belt-and-suspenders" approach to make sure the pants stay up.) All in all it seems to be a decent, lightweight, waterproof pant.”
