This product simply ROCKS!
These pants are absolutely awesome. They fit true to size although with a back belt and a heavy jersey they are a little snug in the waste but are perfect everywhere else. Even with larger knee braces the fit is superb. They don't ride up on you or move around a lot. The venting is very good. The first time out I rode on an 85 degree day and wasn't too hot. I am 6' 4" and the tall size fits me perfect. I am a Sport Quad rider and these pants were just what I was looking for in a trail/cross country pant.

The only thing needed would be front pockets
Fits great with a reasonable amount of airflow. Very happy with Klim products and Revzilla service. I will definitely recommend these and Revzilla to my friends.

Great Pants!!
I just received my pants in the mail. I love the look and they feel really durable. I'm 6'0 with long legs, and wear a 32x34 pair of jeans. I tried a few different brands of pants, looking for something long enough. I ended up getting the 34 Talls and they are a little baggy but the length is perfect. I would definately buy these again in a heartbeat, and I WILL buy from Revzilla again.

Great pants for off-road
Bought these for off-road and some on road riding. I felt they were too baggy to use the knee pad sleeve in the pants. Bought some separate knee pads and love em. You can feel the pants vent around the crotch and in back of the knees. They feel good on and they show that Klim quality. I wear a 33x32 so bought the 32 then returned them for the 34 because they were a little snug. Hassle free easy return. Love Revzilla

Great versatile pant - all temps
I purchased these pants for F800GS ADV riding. Desiring off-road protection along with warmth for early morning departures and cooling later day desert heat riding. They did not fail to deliver in either of these areas.
I purchased the Klim D30 replacement knee armor and forcefield hip armor. There are two note-worthy items for the knee armor. Firstly, that the D30 doesn't quite fit - it causes the interior mesh to be stretched. This I imagine may stretch out over time. It has yet to do that. There is something rough inside that causes slight irritation in the knee area. The Forcefield armor for the hips needed to be cut to fit the pockets. I used the padding I removed as a template. A few minutes of cutting and they fit just right.
I normally wear a 34-tall pant and originally purchased 34 but was at the end of the velcro adjustment. Replaced it with a 36-tall and found the fitment to be more comfortable. Could use another inch or two on the length. My inseam is 36".
The large double zipper pull for the front thigh vent works tremendously. When standing up in the off-road riding position a huge amount of air flow kept me cool. Temps were in the low 90's on this last ride. No complaints on these pants.
For the price point these pants deliver. The minor gripes I have would not cause me to rethink purchasing them again - the 2013 model does appear to have some changes that may be better.

Good Pant for the Money
Fit: a little snug with jeans underneath, but fit perfect with shorts.
Pros: Heavy duty, light color, knee and hip pads, solid build quality.
Cons: No side pockets to put your hands in, and no access to the pants you have on underneath. A pass-through pocket would have been really smart. Cuffs open up (velcro) to make putting pants on over boots easier, but the openings aren't big enough.

Great pants for the money
I ordered these pants a couple weeks ago and have worn them on a few rides. They fit great and the length is just about perfect. The only complaint with the fit is that top seam of the pants is rough and can irritate the skin unless you have a shirt tucked in. These pants seem very well made. I replaced the stock pads with ce pads in the knees and hips. The thigh zippers provide decent air flow, but not quite as much as I had hoped for. I am still experimenting to see if I can improve air flow somewhat though.

Perfect for me
I struggled for a proper fitting pant. Seeking help, I called, explained my body type, indicated knee braces, and within minutes these dudes had this pant in my email. They fit perfect around my narrow waist, long legs,and big knee braces. And they adjust to fit over literally any size boot. They zip to another manufacturer's coat. Thanks, guys, I'm more protected now. Oh, 2 for style because gray is definitely dark green. Not cool with my other gear.
