Why We Like The prAna Stretch Zion Pant
Back in its original fit and fabrication, the prAna Stretch Zion Pant lives. Overgrown trails and grating sandstone walls can't make the rugged stretch nylon flinch, while the relaxed fit and ventilated inseam gusset keep us hiking and climbing freely and comfortably. For added airflow or to keep the view to our feet clear, we roll up the legs and snap them in place. No matter how we're adventuring, the adjustable waist keeps our fit secure, the treated fibers protect us from harmful UV rays, and the plethora of pockets stash the essentials.

I stopped skimping on hiking pants

I used to skimp on hiking pants, spending more on my upper body layers. But then I tried the prAna Stretch Zion--which promptly spoiled plenty of other pants for me. The more relaxed fit and subtle stretch suits my sturdy hiker legs (and IPA belly) and leaves some room for my thighs to swell when I'm pushing up summits or pounding out 20-mile backpacking days. Now that prAna has brought back the original fit and fabric for fall 2023, I've picked up another pair since my first pair is finally starting to show a little wear and tear (not a lot) around the hems after 2+ years and 2000+ miles of four-season hiking.

I bought these for my husband and he has yet to take them off. Practical for all occasions- camping (because they hide/wick dirt away), hiking, climbing, and grabbing beers. This pant is the best all in one pant for every activity. Kaley

A must-have for hiking

I have 3 pairs of these pants for hiking and they are absolutely perfect. They got me through backpacking through a snowy, rainy "summer" trip in Patagonia, countless hikes, and even work great for XC skiing. The price point is very reasonable, and I have recommended these to everyone from friends to my guide in Los Glaciares National Park in Argentina.

Very good fishing pants

- I've used it several times

I bought these for spring fishing in the southeast. They are great for our cool mornings that end up really hot afternoons. The ventilation and stretch are the biggest benefits I’ve seen for moving around all day and not getting too hot. Only one season with them so far so they are easily holding up to this point.

Great Climbing Pants
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- 31/34
- Height:
- 6' 1"
- Weight:
- 165
Stoked that I found climbing pants in my actual dimensions (31/34). I was initially concerned by how loose these pants were below the knee, almost seemed like bell-bottoms out of the box but they slimmed up nicely after a single wash. Super comfortable, breathable, and stretchy. I have only worn them climbing so far but they seem light and cool enough to wear for backpacking/hiking as well. As a climber in the south we have some wildly varying conditions and these pants are up for it all. I have worn these on a <40 degree multipitch day and an 80 degree bouldering day and they performed equally well for both. They are fitted enough through the waist and thighs to be super comfortable in a harness, and the shin snaps make rolling them up for boulders or sport climbs super easy and secure. Have only had them for a few months, but if they continue to hold up they may be my new go-to pants for any kind of climbing.
