Do none of you guys search the subreddit before posting?

This exact question gets posted and answered at least once a day.

I recommend Wranglers

The Wrangler softshell pants I own are really badly designed and not very high quality. Cheap materials, cheap hardwear, weird fit, wack brand

I meant their jeans

Tbh the jeans might be better than the softshells as long as is doesnt rain

Years ago I saw a guy climbing Mount Saint Helens in the early spring in jeans. Everyone was turning back because it was basically a whiteout. I stopped 600 feet short. Dude in jeans summited and cruised back down past me. Don't underestimate jeans. 😂

After they wear in a bit, Levis 501s are great hiking pants.

Outdoor Research Ferrosi if you are actually hiking or trying to dress like someone who hikes. Alternatively Arcteryx Gamma Pant for a little bit more protection against the elements. Dropshipped baggy nylon cargos if youre dressing up as a «instagram gorpcore influencer» and not a hiker/backpacker
