Okay guys welcome to another video in today's video I'm going to give you a. Four year three-year review on this. Awesome jacket this jacket is made by. Outdoor research and it's called the furrow c jacket I've had this jacket. Like i said i don't know exactly when i got it i got it in like the spring four. Years ago maybe and I've worn this. Is probably my most used most abused. Most useful jacket you can say so this. Is a soft shell a true soft shell so what. It is its an uninsulated windbreaker. With stretch that's pretty much what it is it's not waterproof which is a good. Think and I'll explain in a second real. Quick it has it doesn't have an over use. Of pockets, it has a pocket right here. And a pocket here and a pocket here. Pretty simple i don't like jackets with. Like pockets here here and here because all that zipper and all that extra fabric it's like if I'm not going to use a pockets why are they there so a. Real quick one talk about sizing I'm about six foot two i have a chest. Measurement maybe like 47 48 and this is. A 2x i think it's the biggest size they make and it fits me really well the. Sleeves are a little long which i like because when i raise my hand as you can see they don't ride way up it. Fits me i don't even say snug but not. Loose it fits me perfect it allows me to wear you know a t-shirt and a hoodie. Maybe a fleece underneath this on top. And at the same time i can layer on top. And it does have drawstring at the bottom. Here which i never use just not a fan of it but if you want it you can cinch this. Up and kind of puff it up so you have a way of dead air to give it insulation. Now this jacket in and of itself doesn't. Isn't like insulative it doesn't really have insulation in the form of like. Puffy dead air space like it's not wool. It's not please it's not primaloft it's not down so in that regard it's not that. Warm but what this does is it blocks out. A lot of wind which wind is especially. In cold weather but almost in any weather more for me at least more than. Temperature the wind is what can really. Get you because you can have all the insulation in the world but it winds just coming in and blowing all that heat. Out from around your body you're going cold the fabric i don't know the exact. Weight of it's not super thick it's a. 4 ounce nylon i would say when you buy. This actually this is an older version, so they've updated it a couple times but. Everything wanna say about this jacket I'm confident in saying that the newer versions are just as good if not better. When you get it out of box it will feel. Very chintzy it'll feel very light it'll. Feel very weak ok and when i first got. This i got it on sale mail-order so i. Didn't have a chance to try it on during the feel of fabric and when i first got. It oh i would say i was disappointed i was surprised at how lightweight it was. But let me tell you I've put this. Through first off this isn't a work. Jacket with that being said I've worn it. As a work jacket I've done countless home repair. Projects countless you know outdoor jobs. Countless camping trips countless hiking. Trips fishing trips you name it and this. Has been there and it's not showing any. Signs of we're to the point of I'm kind. Of getting a little concerned because how could a fabric this thin this light. Just be so durable now is it possible. You could snag this and tear it i. Actually see no i had that concern. Because that's why i don't like lightweight fabrics because at least what i do branches and stuff getting caught on it and tearing it but this. Because it has that stretch and it's a. Smooth fabric that isn't doesn't have a. Lot of snag points on it I've snagged. This before sort of and it just rubs off. Now i was before the video i was inspecting this jacket to see if there are any points of where and there's some. Staining oil stains sap stains tar. Stains maybe some dirt stains so overall. This thing I'm going to coin it as. Apocalypse proof now that gone through the apocalypse with this but i would be totally more than confident to go. Through the apocalypse with this would be a great companion especially. For if you'd need to debug out or if. Some big long-term event happened and you needed to do work outside this thing. Is kind of protective layer like it. Protects your skin think of it as. Like a work glove but at the same time it offers wind protection now i want to. Talk about waterproof so this in a gore-tex this isn't waterproof and it's not claimed to be waterproof it's claimed to be water resistant now i have. Found this is not water resistant whatsoever when i first got it actually maybe a little bit maybe it had a teflon. Coating there a uh yeah teflon i think. Through sustaining to resist water but this will readily. Soak water okay so I'm not claiming this. Is a lot of proof um this has gone through a wash i don't fifty times or something like that so whatever water proofing was on here is washed off so it's not. Waterproof and it will readily absorb water and then also because it's not. That swishing material it's kind of. Rougher material kind of canvas type. Material water wool won't as. Easily run off of this but the main so. If I'm working outside in the rain I've. Tried gore-tex like gore-tex rain jacket and you just build up so much heat from. Working that you end up letting out from. Your sweat so I've made that sacrifice. It's like you can either wet up from your sweat or you can wet out from water from the rain now working in this why. I'm calling this a piece of like work wear is because i can do anything and i can pretty much wear this in all seasons and not be uncomfortable but i can be. Doing whatever and because the fit because the sleeves aren't super baggy. It's not getting in the way how i tend to wear this actually is i. Pull the sleeves up and me personally if. I was designing like any work soft shell it actually gets a t-shirt variety because whenever I'm doing like actual work i have the sleeves pulled up so one. Think and maybe the neighbor versions have this probably not one thing I'd like to see is one of those buttons here like on a plaid button-up so you could. Roll it up and button it so you could. Take it on and off and the sleeves stay up now one thing i do like though which. Kind of goes against that is it doesn't have buttons it doesn't have zippers it doesn't have like velcro around the. Sleeves especially in the wintertime. Velcro would just collect snow so i like. How clean the cuffs are moving to the. Lane another reason i like this is. Because it fits me well it's not super. Baggy it fits me well but it's long now. Then again the newer versions this is. Like a 2012-2013 design the newer. Versions might be cut different keep that in mind but the reason i like this one specifically is its long length so. It's not overly long as you can see you. Now it goes maybe eight inches past my. Waist well it does not have pit zips the. Newer versions might with that being. Said with this type of fabric with this type of jacket i never found the need for pit zips because sometimes i wear this with a t-shirt and a problem i found with jackets with pit zips if you only have a t-shirt or tank top underneath is that zipper wear is on the inside of your arm. And it can cause discomfort so maybe. That's why they didn't include offensive but frankly this breathes so well you. Don't need a pizza what a pizza is real quick is its pretty much as if you're opening by your armpits which is pretty much your main source of perspiration air where you're going to be sweating from and what i found is I've worn. This in temperatures from 70 degrees. Eighty degrees when i need something. Maybe working around spruce trees and i don't want my forearms irritated but. I've worn this in 70 degree whether it's not uncomfortable it's just a t-shirt underneath and then i also wear this. Hiking cold-weather hiking I'll wear. This down to zero degrees with a puffy. Or with a hoodie underneath and the only. Reason wearing this again is to block from that windchill effect overall i. Don't want this to be a longer view frankly i just want it to be straight to the point this jacket long story short if you're looking for a soft shell jacket that's lightweight compact our lightweight packs down. Really small is very comfortable in a wide range of weather and is super. Durable and also really easy to work in. And not cumbersome and a host of other. Reasons that i can't think of off the top of my head this is the jacket for you this is a true soft shop i have had other soft-shells in the past that are really thick very stiff do you just feel. Awkward and they're not that warm and. They don't provide that much wind blocking ability no this doesn't offer. The best wind block ability there's a. There's a fine line between berthe. Readability and wind proof so if you. Have something 100% wind resistant it's not going to agree that well if you have something 100 shot waterproof it's not going to breathe whatsoever so this is a. You sacrifice a little wind blocking capabilities for a very breathable. Jacket so yeah long story short they. Have newer versions out and i would feel. Confident in recommending those even though i haven't tried them I'm also going to leave with a link to get his tactical he has liked one at least one maybe two videos talking about this exact jacket and i pretty much can echo. Everything he said this is like my go-to. Jacket for a lot of stuff again it's not. Insulated it's not a like winter jacket. But it's a nice layering piece and very. Comfortable it fits very well for all you found this helpful useful if you. Have any questions about this leave it in the comments below if you like this video give it a big thumbs up and like always go back to home page we'll watch through my current videos if you like what you see feel free to subscribe we'll catch you on the next video.

Hello and welcome to another rock climbing life video i am your host jeff safford today I'm reviewing one of my favorite climbing pants the outdoor research for oc pants ok today I'm. Reviewing the outdoor research / oç pants I've talked a lot about the first he pants on my in my videos i reviewed. The 3/4 length pants and also the jacket but today I'm reviewing the pants and the first thing i want to say before i. Review these pants is that i am extremely picky with climbing pants i. Would say out of all the articles of clothing for like technical wear or. Outdoor wear I'm I'm probably the most. Picky about climbing pants it's because. I want them to be you know almost feel. Like they're not even there i want them to be breathable and light i don't want. Then to restrict my hip motion i-i've. Pretty long legs and I'm about 6 1 so i. You know anytime a high step i don't. Want to have like thick pants that restrict any motion at all i want them to be breathable and not be too. Hot to wear but at the same time I'm only wearing pants when it's a little bit cold out in the morning or windy out during the day so i also want them to protect my lower legs from the elements. And keep me warm so as you can tell like. The list is pretty long for what i require out of a climbing pant and the. The pants that actually accomplish that list are pretty small but the fur oc. Pants from outdoor research is one. Make and model that actually meets all. Of my requirements for a climbing pant so i like to have talked about before in. My previous videos about the furrows ease this material is really great it's. It's lightweight its breathable its wind. Resistant and it's slightly watered resistant as well so it's just a great. Stretchy material kind of has these magic properties it's its really fantastic but these pants.they are just. There's their form-fitting, but they're not too tight and, and they move myth. With me very well so you know like i. Said I'm super picky about pants but i think that these are our win so. Different from my other reviews i had. Only had the pants for a few months well these are not super old but I've had those other articles there's other. Foressi items for quite some time so i can talk about the durability of the. Foressi material and i can tell you that it's super durable now it may not look. Durable b and the reason is that when. You wear them for an extended period of time or they encounter lots of abrasion against the rock they kind of fray and. Pill kind of like a worn sweatshirt or a. Warm fleece, so they kind of have that pilling action, and they don't look as. Smooth as when they're brand-new when they're brand-new they look super smooth, but they start to fray with wear however. They've never ripped on me and the. 3/4 length pant that I've had i believe for a couple years now the thighs. Are pretty worn looking however they've never ripped I've actually cut my leg or. Like above my knee and actually been bleeding underneath the pant but the pants have never ripped so the material is super adorable and has like a rip stop cape property but even though they. Look like they're worn so don't be fooled you know if you're if you're froz pants or your jacket start to look a little bit worn there they're not going. To rip on you and i don't think they're going to fail so that'll occur about after a season of use they'll start to look that way, but they're gonna keep on going for you but. Other parts of this pant that i really like i really like this thigh pocket this is great for a cellphone it's kind of taped or seamed on there so. It's its really low profile you don't. Even feel that it's there you don't know that it's there just has a small zipper so that's that's a great feature that the back of the. Pant has a zipper pocket on the right rear and you know either. It's gusseted allows free-range of motion and then also unlike their other 3/4. Length pants these have a drawstring closure, and they're really. Well designed the little buckle that. Keeps the elastic drawstring is actually. Hidden kind of like in this little pocket underneath here so it doesn't rub against your leg it doesn't you know. Kind of bother your leg at all and it's kind of just tucked out of the way but. Other than that these are really great pants like i said I'm super picky about. Pants I've only found a couple on the market from different climbing manufacturers that meet my specs you. Now they don't absorb water i really. Like them a lot but the only downside i. See with the fur oc pants specifically. You know the full-length pant these are a regular length now owe our makes a. Short length but they don't make a long. And i really think that they need to make a long again I'm six one, so they're. Just cut a little bit too short from my liking i would prefer if they made a long you know and help dial us tall guys. They already make it short so if you're shorter go with the short if you're tall. Or you know regular height go with the regular but hopefully they make a long. Pant length in the near future and. Another thing with the waist as far as the fit i think the hips fit well at first they feel a little bit tight in. The hip, but they seem to almost come just they just stretch with you and move with you so really great properties of the material inside of the waist has. Like a fleece or a chamois material so. They won't slide if you're wearing you. No like under armour or like boxer shorts underneath they won't kind of slide down they'll stay in place and at the same time wick. A little bit of sweat as well so overall. Give the frosty pants a try they've made. My shortlist and i think that if you give them a try you'll like them as well and with that this has been another rock member like be sure to check out the blog rock-climber life.com for more thanks for watching.

hello and welcome to another rock climber early video I am your host Jeff Safra we're out here at the beautiful New River Gorge and today I get the privilege of reviewing the outdoor

Designed for cooler weather backpacking snowshoeing ski touring or alpine. Conditions the outdoor research men's. Cirque pants are a great soft shell pant. For when mobility is necessary in the back country let's take a look at all of their features these pants are constructed with a durable double weave. Softshell fabric that gives it really nice stretch really nice mobility to the. Whole system and it's very comfortable it's got a polyester backing so it lays. Really nicely against the skin or layers. Well if you're using a lightweight base layer underneath it does have a brushed. Nylon face fabric so that's really good at helping to shed that snow that mud or. That precipitation in the event that it starts to rain on you they are a highly. Water-resistant pant, but they're not completely waterproof so keep that in mind when picking up the cirque pants. But they have a really nice feel and a very comfortable fit all while being very stretchy to offer great mobility so. Really nice fit and feel to the cirque. Pants some features that the cirque. Pants offer are a button and zippered. Fly with a kind of elastic adjustment on. The waistband so you can actually cinch the fit down if you need to, and they're also belted loops so you can use a belt if you choose to do so there we've also got two and two front. Suspender loops with a rear suspender loop so you can attach accessory suspenders if you choose to they do not come with the pants they are sold separately when it comes to pockets we've got two front zippered pockets one. Back zippered pocket and 1 YYY. On the right side so you've got some. Different areas to stow away some gear and you can zip them up to make sure that it stays secure when you're moving around in the outdoors so some nice. Features going on there we do have a nice gusseted crotch and articulated knees so you've got really good mobility. And of somewhat more loose fit in those. Areas and in combination with that soft shell fabric you just get all-around good from the pants all the way down toward. The cuff region we've got a reinforced. Nylon ankle guard so you've got a really. Mice protected material there it's gonna add some really good durability in that. Section you've got a couple other nice features down in the foot area such as a. Bootlace tab so you can actually attach these directly to the boot laces so that they don't ride up or create any. Unnecessary or unwanted gapping so almost like you would find in a gator. These guys have that lace clip there that lace hook to really cinch it down you've got some other nice things going. On the underside like a tab for an. Instep lace and again they're just really nicely designed they work well with gaiters if you choose to but are gonna give you really good water resistance and weather resistance if you just want to wear them by themselves these pants have a fairly snug or. Athletic fit they're not super tight but. They're not regular loose fit pants they. Give you more of that athletic feel you know stand low profile so you could. Layer under them with a light or a mid weight base layer, but they are meant to be a more active pant, so they give you that slightly more snug fit and it still. Feels nice you i don't feel restricted in them at any point at any you know any. Movement is still easy you know because. Of that soft shell that double weave stretch fabric and you know all that mobility with the articulated knees and. The gusseted crotch so although they do have a more tailored fit they are still. A very mobile pant so a really nice feel. To the through the circle pants here so. There you have it with a light and durable soft shell material that provides good weather protection in those cooler temperatures the outdoor research men's cirque pants option for. When you need to be mobile in the back country.

All right so I'm a 35 waist and i have. On the 32 of the convertible gorilla cps. From outdoor research this is what they. Look like all right it was like impossible for me to buy these all right. So basically these pants can be purchased one size smaller than what you would normally wear if you wear a 36 you can get the 34 if you wear a 34 you can get the 32 they're stretchy pants and. The waistline is slightly stretchy i found that the waistline on the 36 in the thirty-fourth was very stretching and it had no belt or drawstring and if. You're going convertible adding the belt. Kind of adds unnecessary weight the whole idea is to keep your pants out of. Your pack by having pants that convert into shorts now obviously that's kind of. Nerdy but they call it a gear geek for a. Reason you know if your if when you put your pants in your pack the pack in. The pants add weight and bulk to your pack, and they also get wrecked if you. Keep your pants in your pack the whole entire summer you're carrying around something that adds bulk and weight to your pack and your pack is bigger and heavier than it should be and at the end. Of the summer when you go to get your pants they're wrecked they're full of mildew etc so the idea with convertible. Pants is that you're wearing shorts and you don't have your pants in your pack you know if you carried board shorts and kept your pants in your pack yeah board shorts are awesome but having your pants. And your pack is wrong when you have convertible pants you still are wearing. Your pants you have them on you and you can put your ankles from the convertible pants you know you can stow those with. Your poncho or something else that you don't usually use so when. You buy the pants a size smaller than normal like for instance these are a 32 instead of a 34 i don't need a belt so i. Got rid of the belt and also the side pocket which holds your cell phone that. Has a tendency to hit doorways and furniture as you walk past them because the pants are usually too baggy these pants are not baggy they're very straight legs and that prevents your iphone from hitting stuff as you walk by. Because you know like the little 4-inch iphone se it's probably the best phone to bring traveling but it's very fragile if it. Hits a doorway or a table as you walk by because it's in your cargo pocket it's. Broken more or less i mean it damages the phone and so having the hip pocket that cargo pocket close to the. Leg it prevents the phone from hitting. Stuff as you walk by which is a nice feature now i tried on the 36 furro c's. Which were more like a 40 waist 4 oc pants i tried on the 34 which were more. Like a 37 and i tried on the 30s which i. Couldn't they were too small i as well. Tried the 36 in the pro no stretch sian. Convertible pant which was like a very heavyweight a plastic form of denim it. Was like basically denim blue jeans that. Are very tougher for hunting and bushwhacking, but they were made out of plastic so that they dry quicker than cotton, and they were just too heavy. They're 15 ounces i also tried on the outdoor research convertible pants which. Were uncomfortable they don't stretch at all there are only four and a half ounces, so they're half the weight of the other guys but you lose a lot of comfort. With weight with the mountain sorry I'm. Not sure if i said alpha research or mountain hardwear the mountain hardwear mesa convertible pants they're half the. Weight of all the other convertible pants, but they're not comfortable so if. You were to go 36 if you were to get the. Mountain hardwear 36 mesa convertible. Pants in order to make them more comfortable because they don't stretch you would save a little bit of weight but the truth is that the outdoor research fer oc pants can be bought one. Size smaller so you can wear a 32 if you. Wear a 34 the 32 is actually out. Slightly lighter than the 34 so the. Amount of weight that you shave by using the mountain hardwear convertible pants. You can actually get that by going one size smaller with the furrow sees or something similar and I've been wearing the fro c's for a day or two they're very comfortable and very happy with them they're very form fit you know yeah. They kind of fit kind of like a pair of boxers i mean they're pretty tight pants, but they're very breathable and stretchy and comfortable, and they fit perfect, so they've got plenty of pockets they've got two zippered pockets on the back which is important they've got a zippered cargo pocket they've got two pockets on the front now if you go small with these convertibles you'll notice that the two front pockets are not really easy to get your hands into they're a little form fit it's a little bit tight but definitely usable I'm. Pretty happy with this i am also really interested in the Monticello convertible pants because they come with a belt you know they're only 11 ounces and you can. Pull the belt close so you can get that if the 34 is or the thirty-six's are slightly too big you can pull on that you can cinch the belt, and they come in. Cool colors but you know it's another eighty bucks to spend and I'm pretty happy with the frosty's that I've got. They're their correct color and so i don't know why i would buy another pair of convertible pants when i should be wearing these and just learning how to use the ones that I've got you know i think that these are gonna be my go to and i should just figured that figure. Out these 32 waist outdoor research 4 oc. Convertible pants.

Abrasion-resistant super stretchy lightweight and very comfortable the. Outdoor research 4 oc crag pants are a. Great pant for climbing or long days in. The mountains let's take a look at their construction and their materials these pants are constructed with a really nice lightweight but abrasion resistant material and in the side panels and knees or areas where you're gonna see some high wear specifically while climbing they do have a reinforced panel. So throughout the whole side panel here and all the way down to the knee of the pant we've got kind of that extra doubled up reinforced material for. Enhancement durability for the pants some features on these pants include two. Standard front pockets a nice stretchy mesh backed pockets, so they'll enhance. Your breath ability in the pants as well in the back we just have one zippered. Pocket so there's a secure pocket on the back side and one zippered thigh pocket. Here as well so good for storing those smaller items you may want to keep a little bit more easily accessible but also secure on the sides we've got each. Two stretchy little loops, and they're designed for toothbrushes so if you're out bouldering and you need to carry your brushes with you want to have them quick and easy to access we've got these two loops on the sides of the pants and in the back there's a slightly larger loop where you can clip a chalk bag again if you're out bouldering or doing any type of climbing so great little additions to the pants there. We do have adjustment at the ankles of. The pants so you can kind of pull them up to get out of the way of your climbing shoes and cinch them down, so they stay nice and snug there the fit of these pants is a fairly athletic fit so. They fit pretty trim we do have an. Internal draw cord so you can tie those off and keep them nice and tight if you need to and the waistband is a low profile waistband that is stretch knit, so we've got kind of areas in the waistband that are gonna conform to your body in your shape and move with you so it remains really comfortable so a really smart and thoughtful design in the waistband of the pants I'm wearing a. Medium here, and they do stretch to fit really nicely generally i wear two in the waist, and he's fit really well and overall length isn't an issue. Either and there you have it's the outdoor research men's furrow seek rag pants specifically designed for climbing. Whether your bouldering spending a long day at the crag or doing a multi-pitch route in the mountains these pants are durable abrasion resistant and stretchy. You.

For super light haven't conceived to be essentially a pair of emergency pull-on ring pants as such they don't have a ton. Of different features on them, but they're designed to be lightweight pack down small and be able to take with you basically on every adventure you can imagine and the time since I've had them. I've taken them on a three-day backpacking trip from Quebec as well as three weeks of expedition in patagonia so as you can imagine they've now seen pretty much all the conditions you can imagine they give you an idea here's how. They come on what you have that leg zipper all the way up on the leg so when. I'm on the trail side you just have to basically work it over the boot so I've got one out right here put the other one. On as well pull them up and you're ready. To face the rain let's have a look at. The features from the top to the bottom starting the top you see there's an elastic waistband no belt but there is a tightening toggle here so you can snug them up around your waist next there is a fly on them but this zipper pull is. Extremely tiny so if you're wearing gloves or you have cold fingers there's no way you're gonna get that open so i suggest adding a zip tie or piece or string or something to it working your way down you'll see this is like a durable water repellent finish on the outside covering the gore-tex layer quite breathable and i found them to. Work well working my way to the bottom is where the real interesting features kick in you see there's this zipper that comes all the way up to my knee which helps to get them over a pair of boots there's also reinforcing on the instep. To keep them dry when you're hiking you'll see that they've been well-worn in patagonia and you'll notice the shape of the pants. Is actually quite articulated so it's kind of curved shape and there's also a bit of extra room in the butt make sure that you can step high over obstacles as you're going finally at the. Very bottom you'll see there's actually a hook to hook on to your laces as well. As some zip bungee on the bottom to. Tighten up around your boot another. Feature that really makes these stand out for hiking and trekking as opposed to just general rain pants they have extra high wear areas you'll see that carries on to the inside where you have this extra durable more text material at. The instep and focusing on the inside again you'll notice how all the seams are beautifully seam taped and have no. Edges or anything like that so i suspect this will last a very long time the pair i have is a man's small waist is about 31 inches I'm generally a thirty inch but with my extra clothing on they fit. Quite nicely over top anything i put them over this is called their nocturne or blue color and it's also available in. A black collar for the gram counters out there the total weight is about two hundred and sixty grams throw by a patagonia trip i basically had these folded flat and stuck on an outside poach the entire time on my backpack that way when the crazy weather kicked up it was easy to pull up pull on and keep on going and i found in patagonia it's really high winds these were really comfortable on days like where i had a high mountain pass where we'd be crossing over and there'd be raging winds blowing at it i find this to be just about the perfect all-around pant because it still features full. Gore-tex is hard wearing fits down small. And is easy to take with you with a pair. Like this there's no excuse not to have decent rained gear on a trip with you that does it for my review of the arc'teryx beta sl pens for more.

Hi thanks for joining me today i am. Reviewing the arc'teryx of beta sl rain. Pants the first thing to note is how. Small they are they're also quite lightweight they're made of the gore-tex pack light material so there's just a. Few features to note on these is a very simple rain pants first thing is that. They have an elastic waist and a draw. Cord as well to keep it just into the. Waste that you want these are size medium I'm typically a size medium and most pants except in those prom pants in. Which case I'm a size small like i. Anyway as is typical with arc'teryx all. The cuts on these pants are is very. Beautifully designed it gives you know you have incredible flexibility it's very well-made oh no another. Note to make about the gore-tex pack. Light material that better constructive is that they are quite breathable that's. Something definitely to look for when buying a pair of rain pants though or. Rain gear in general there's only two. Materials that I've found that are actually both waterproof pretty much and. Breathable but mainly breathable and. That is gore-tex and even material and. They've you know both have their pros and cons another video anyway so the. Next thing they know is that they also have a they have a waterproof zipper for. The fly as well, and they also have waterproof zippers on the cuffs you know. So that you can easily put these. Pants on or to remove them over a pair. Of boots or shoes without having to take those off, and they also have these. Little snaps at the bottom of the zipper to make sure that the cuffs stays you. Now in place and it also has an adjustable draw cord in the zipper or in. The around the cuff and it also has these hooks on the front end of the cuff. So you can hook it on to your laces to keep you know them from sliding down below your shoes. Or boots and then the last thing to note. About these pants is that they have around the cuffs their double layer. Reinforced that's what this black part. Is just for extra durability excellent. Product i really like them and i highly.
