Question 1

Last year Clarkia wide leg size 8 short was a perfect fit. This year it fits like size 6. It is 2cm less across each leg at crotch level and 2cm less on the waist. This means a volume of 4cm on each leg has been taken out…Why. Also, there is no 10 short.

Hello Lydie, thank you for sharing these fit details with us. We can confirm that the Clarkia Cotton Wide Leg Pant has not changed measurements since the 2024 season, so the sizing should be consistent with last year’s version. At the moment, we don’t offer a 10 Short in this style because availability is based on demand and production planning, and certain size–length combinations are produced in smaller quantities or not carried forward if there isn’t enough guest demand. We do offer the same pant in a Nylon version, and that style has slightly different measurements compared to the Cotton version, which may explain the differences you’re noticing. If you’d like help finding the closest fit or exploring alternatives, we’re here to support you.

Question 2

Cotton shrinks at least a little, regardless of drying method and percentage of cloth used. Is this pre-shrunk cotton or will there be a certain amount of shrinkage on the first (or first few) wash(es)?

Seymour · Accepted Answer

Hi there, thanks for reaching out. The cotton used in the Clarkia Cotton Wide Leg Pant is pre-shrunk. When the wash and care instructions are followed, you should not experience shrinkage after washing. We hope this helps!

Question 3

Are you still making the nylon version of these pants?

Seymour · Accepted Answer

Hi there, thanks for reaching out. Currently, the Clarkia line comes in the Clarkia Cotton Wide Leg Pant and the Clarkia Wide Leg Pant, which are made from a plain weave nylon. While we do not have an exact return date, stock will fluctuate as we move through the seasons. We recommend using the “Notify Me” feature, subscribing to the Arc'teryx newsletter for up-to-date information on products, or looking to authorized Arc’teryx retailers for any additional item availability. We hope this helps!

Question 4

What is the rise of these pants? Can they be worn high on the waist?

River · Accepted Answer

Hello there, thanks for your question! The front rise of these pants is 26.5 cm, which places them in the mid-rise category. That means they’ll typically sit just below or around the natural waistline, depending on your body proportions.

Question 5

Meine Taille ist 76cm und meine Hüft 99cm und ich weiß nicht welche größe mir am besten passt?

Seymour · Accepted Answer

Hi Evii, vielen Dank für deine Anfrage! Aufgrund deiner Maße würden wir dir je nachdem, wie eng oder weit du die Hose tragen möchtest, entweder eine 6-R oder 8-R empfehlen. Die 6-R hat eine Taillenweite von 77 cm und eine Hüftweite von 107,5 cm. In der Größe 8-R hat die Hose eine Taille von 80 cm und eine Hüfte von 110,5 cm. Wenn du dir unsicher bist, bestelle beide Größen zum Anprobieren und nutze für das Modell, das dir nicht so gut passt, unseren kostenlosen Rückversand. Wir hoffen, die Info hilft dir weiter!

Question 6

do they shrink in the dryer?

Dave · Accepted Answer

Hi Mack, great question! We highly recommend following the care instructions for the Clarkia Cotton Wide Leg Pant to prevent shirking or damage, this means putting them in the dryer on low heat. Please visit our ReCARE page for more information on how to wash your gear.

Question 7

Hi, so the drawcord is gone on these?

River · Accepted Answer

Hello there, the Clarkia Cotton Wide Leg Pant doesn’t have drawcords at the cuffs, but at the waist, you’ll find a low-profile ladder lock adjuster with an offset buckle. It provides a secure fit while staying comfortable under a harness.

Question 8

Bonjour je ne sais quelle taille prendre je fais 1.50m du 34/36 pour ce pantalon :)

River · Accepted Answer

Bonjour, sans vos mensurations, il nous est difficile de vous recommander une taille pour le pantalon en coton à jambes larges Clarkia. Nous vous conseillons de prendre vos mesures corporelles, comme le tour de taille, entre-jambes et de hanches, et d'utiliser notre guide des tailles pour trouver celle qui vous conviendra le mieux. Si vos mesures se situent entre deux tailles, optez pour une taille plus grande pour un ajustement plus ample ou une taille plus petite pour un ajustement plus serré.

Question 9

River · Accepted Answer
