I really like these. Didn't give a 5 because I think a few weeks could make it perfect.
I am 5'4, 135lbs, and I carry most in my weight in my athletic legs and butt. My lower measurements are: waist-29in, hips, 40.5in, thighs 23inch mid thigh.
I ordered a medium and they looks great, but are slimmer on my body frame based on measurments. After a day of enduro riding and some park laps, they stretched a bit. I also found they had enough room for my knee pads which are not super slim.
I found these quite comfortable for a day of riding. I like the thigh vents and find the tactic durable and yet not restrictive. Im short so they have some extra length for the longer leg ladies, but not bad or putting the thigh panels in a weird spot or knee darts in a bad spot.
Love the durable zippers. I've had other pants and the zippers broke right away and these seem like they could last.
Some places that could be improved on for future iterations or things I didnt love:
1. Smaller inlay pocket for cards to be secured
2. Key clip in pocket
3. Longer zippers on the bottom of pant legs. These are too short to bring the pant leg up past the knee to pull knee pads on and off without pantsing yourself.
4. If you were to change the pants, a phone type pocket on the side or side-back of thigh.
Thanks Notice the Reckless for some fun pants. Cant waiting to keep wearing them and sending fun stuff.
