Men's Superlight Fishing Pant

Great pants, fishing or around town.

I had some of the shorts and the pants are just as good. Lightweight and very comfortable - I even wear to the office on casual days

The construction of the pant is well thought out. Pros- the fabric is light and airy and dry fast. There is a well placed gusset in the inseam to allow for movement. The pockets are deep in front and features 2 hip pockets as well, one zippered. Cons- what is missing from these pants is elastic in the waist. It is missing a eye glass inner pocket in front. The hip zippered pocket is large enough, but is missing the traditional simms pull string on the zipper. It is almost impossible to open the pocket with sun gloves on. I truly wish a fishing pant would put a zippered pocket in front so my phone doesn't fall out. I still gave them 4 stars because they are very well constructed an they will last many fishing seasons.

Why did you change a good thing?

Last year's version of these pants were incredible. I bought three pairs and love fishing in them and even wearing them casually. When I saw the new color come out this year, I went ahead and ordered a pair. But the material of this year's superlight pants feels completely different than the old version and actually feels a little heavier. They are still good pants, hence the 3 stars, but the old version was superior. Why change a good thing just for the sake of change?
