Great pair of pants

a year ago
I bought this pair to hike in the summer and i think i’ve made the right choice. Extremely breathable and light even in hot weather. As always Arc’teryx doesn’t disappoint. I wouldn’t suggest this specific pair of pants in the winter if you are a cold sensitive person; for that purpose Gamma Ar is great.

A: Lightweight
Q: Cons:
A: A bit too light for winter
Q: Activity
A: Hiking, Trekking, Walking

I bought these for a backpacking trip at Grand Canyon. Had to take them off in favor of shorts almost immediately because I was too hot. I do not recommend these pants for hot weather hikes where breathability is critical.

Great light pant!

a year ago
I bought the men's pant because the women's gamma lightweight pant is too short in the regular and too long in the women's long. Why is there such a jump from 29 inches to 34 inches inseam in the women's pant??? That is 5 inches! In a perfect world the women's regular inseam would be 31 inches. I am a fan of both Patagonia and Arcteryx. Patagonia women's regular inseam is 31 inches.
Q: Pros:
A: Men's pant fit perfectly
Q: Cons:
A: Women's fit too short
Q: Activity
A: Hiking, Cycling, Backpacking
Q: Your Height:
A: 5'9"

Yes, I recommend this product.

Great disappointment - changed fit and material

2 years ago
The Gamma SL has been changed to the Gamma Lightweight. I loved the Gamma SL and just wanted a second pair in a different color. The new style is different: not as slim and articulated a fit, it is more plain in its contour. In addition, the material is slightly changed, not as supple, a little more coarse. There no longer are any pull ties at the bottom to snug against one's boots. So disappointed. Bring the real Gamma SL back please!

Out of this world pants

2 years ago
I recently purchased these pants for my trip to Georgia, and I must say, they have exceeded my expectations. Throughout my 6-7 days of hiking, I wore these pants consistently, and their exceptional breathability and lightness set them apart from any other pants I've tried. The weatherproof feature held up remarkably well, and the design itself is nothing short of brilliant. I honestly couldn't find a single flaw with this product. It's important to note that these pants are meant to be lightweight, so if you're seeking warmth, layering them with a base layer would be ideal. Overall, I am thoroughly impressed with these pants and highly recommend them for any outdoor adventure.
Q: Pros:
A: Breathability, lightness, design
Q: Cons:
A: None
Q: Activity
A: Outdoor, casual
Q: Your Height:
A: 180

Yes, I recommend this product.

Sizing changed

I had a pair of Sigma SL pants I love and was looking for a replacement, which these pants purported to be. The sizing is not at all the same. So baggy. They look like MC Hammer pants. I returned them.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Do I have a story for you!

2 years ago
The Good: Pants are as advertised; lightweight, gusset crotch, zippered pockets and an actual 36" inseam. The Not So Good: Found out today that the "Forage" colour is more transparent than expected when wet, would benefit from back pockets. The Ugly: Where to start? As a person blessed/cursed with a 36" inseam, buying pants is challenging. As a woman, I find it frustrating that the longest inseam available for these pants is 34". For the cost of these pants, I want something that actually fits which means I end up buying the men's version instead. No tall sizes are available in stores which means that I need to stalk the website to try and get the one pair available as they are sold out immediately. Alas, once again this year I was foiled and was not fast enough to get the unicorn of pants. But then I checked the US site and lo! A veritable bounty of colours and sizes!! This is when the "fun" started. As a Canadian, with a Canadian credit card, I wasn't able to purchase anything as the website would not accept my card. I tried multiple times and spoke with multiple people who confirmed that, yes, the pants I wanted were available but no, I was not able to use my Canadian credit card and was directed to the FAQ page. Which states that "We accept Visa, Mastercard etc" from CANADA. It was suggested that I buy them from the store (nope, no tall sizes sent to either Canadian or US stores). I can honestly say that this was one of the most frustrating attempts to purchase a pair of pants ever. Why so hard? I have money, you have pants, let's make this work. IT SHOULDN'T BE THIS DIFFICULT. Eventually, a kind salesperson from Seattle gave me a hint, buy a gift card and use that on the US website. Nope, couldn't do that either. I finally went in person to a store in Vancouver and bought a gift card which I was able to use on the US website (I have a US shipping address). In the end, it cost me $248 Can to purchase these pants. Not sure I'd be willing to do it again. As a Canadian who really wants to support Canadian businesses, Arcetyx sure makes it unnecessarily challenging.
Q: Pros:
A: actual 36" inseam
Q: Cons:
A: Way too hard and expensive
Q: Activity
A: Hiking

No, I do not recommend this product.

Please bring back the previous model

2 years ago
I have three of these pants from previous years and wear them non-stop. I purchased a pair of this revised model and they are not even close to as nice. Closure at the top feels sloppy, legs not as tapered, pockets seem slightly more shallow. There are plenty of models within Arcteryx which already fit similar to this revised model - I really hope the old model returns. I have "sold" about 10 of my friends on the old model and they all have said it is their favourite pant they have ever worn, so it's a pity to see them revised.
Q: Activity
A: Climbing

No, I do not recommend this product.

I agree, I had the Gamma LT model from 2020 and wore it for 175 days straight on my PCT thru-hike. The perfect outdoor pant for backpacking day after day in every possible environment and weather. Kind of bummed that I can't find an exact replacement now!

Summer version of the previous Gamma LT fit

2 years ago
The Gamma Lightweight (formerly SL) is like the previous fit version of the Gamma LT ('slimmer' fit versus the 'regular' updated current fit) with the Lefroy fabric. If you like a slimmer fit and want a lighter weight pant this is it.
Q: Pros:
A: Slimmer fit, light weight fabric
