Bring back the previous version

I have three pairs of the previous version of these pants and loved them. Unfortunately the taped seams have begun to loosen and I thought I’d try this newer version. Compared to the old version these are slightly baggier. I preferred the slimmer profile of the older version. There are no longer pull cords at the cuffs so you no longer have the option of tightening the cuffs. I never used this feature but it was nice to have the option. But the biggest difference is in waist closure. The previous version had a strong snap as well as a hook that could be used to cinch the waist tight. The current version only has a snap. But this snap is far, far inferior to the old one. It is cheaply made and does not stay closed. For me it would pop open if I simply sat down. I returned the pants.

Hi there. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Gamma Tapered Pant. We are sorry to hear you are disappointed and that it did not suit your needs. We will make sure to pass your comments to our team.

I think you're confusing these pants with the normal Gamma pants. These are the tapered version. The non-tapered Gamma pants still exist.

Excellent!

I work outdoors taking people walking etc. These are possibly the best pants I’ve owned. Short leg option makes for a great fit, I’m only 160cm tall. The tapered leg makes them perfect for wearing with a low top boot. I’m probably buying them in the second colour.

Perfect for outdoor sports in any weather

I play a lot of tennis in sunny Los Angeles so I like to protect my skin from the sun. These pants offer a perfect solution. The fit is true to size, not baggy and not tight, and flexible so I can run. In the heat, or with vigorous exercise, I don’t get hot but on cold days these pants do provide a nice layer.

My go-to pants!

I own the regular gamma pants, but I prefer a more fitted look. So, I opted for the tapered version, and now these pants have become a staple in my wardrobe :) I've worn them during long multipitch climbing adventures in the alpine, backpacking, bouldering at the gym, and just hanging out at the crag. They are incredibly durable, having withstood tight chimney climbing without any abrasion. Additionally, they are lightweight and comfortable. Bonus points for being stylish and versatile enough for wearing around town. As a curvy petite gal, I chose the 0 Petite/Short size, and they fit perfectly. I love them and only wish there were a wider color selection!

More of a summer pant

They are okay. Thinner material than the gamma pant. The rise is a kind of a mid- rise just below the belly button on me. I have an apron belly so I'd rather have a high rise or low rise as a mid just cuts in. Also found the inseam was too short for me( 5"9). If you want a tapered gamma lightweight these would be a good option. Very stretchy ! Bought size 16, 5"9 230lbs

Hi there, we are sorry to hear that the performance of the Gamma Tapered Pant did not meet your needs. We appreciate your feedback and will pass this along to our design team for review. We recommend looking at the Gamma Heavyweight Straight Leg Pant as it is the warmest option in our Gamma series, and is available in three different lengths.

New Favourite Pants

Wow. The first time I put these pants on I felt like they were made specifically for me. The material feels durable and they do not feel restrictive at all, which I found with other brands I tried. I love the option for "tall". Pants are ALWAYS too short for me. I was unsure of sizing and appreciate being able to order multiple sizes using the free shipping and free returns. Waist 28-29" Hips about 40". Ultimately went with the 6T and can fit a heavier weight merino wool base layer underneath. The 8T were just slightly too baggy. These will be my new go-to pant for everything from climbing, mountain biking, hiking, and of course, walking the dogs.

Love so much but would be great do have 2/4T

Love these pants so much! The adjustable waist is ingenious, all of the pockets have zippers, the taper fit and ankle cinch is very flattering and looks great. My ONLY complaint is I wish Arcteryx would offer full size range in the tall sizes. For these pants the tall option doesn't start until medium but there are lots of long lean ladies out there that would appreciate the XS-S tall sizes! I am just about 6ft tall and 145lbs. 26" waist and 36" hips so a 4T would probably be perfect, but because of the adjustable waist I am able to get away with the 6T. Overall I still give these 5 stars, I hope they never stop making them and add in smaller tall sizes and I will definitely buy every colour.

OBSESSED

My favourite pant from Arc'teryx. Hands down. I'm tall (5'11") and the regular length is always too short for me. Though, with the taper, it fits more a stylish ankle crop which I can still wear if it's not rainy / no snow etc. I got one in the regular length, and one in the long length which is PERFECT for all weather conditions. I've worn them mountaineerings, hiking, scrambling in the snow, rain and sun. They're ridiculously comfortable, a slightly higher waist, move fantastically and tuck into my boot if I need them to. I love the pockets (similar to what's on the regular gamma pant) and the little waist cinch because I do find they loosen up a bit. 11/10, cannot recommend enough.

Great pants. Feels comfy and seems durable.

I am not an outdoorsy person, but I do trek on the occasion outing with friends or prefer to be dressed for the fluctuating west coast weather. I cannot speak on the durability of these pants for it's true intentions (outdoor, hiking, rock-climbing) but I can speak from the perspective of a "city dweller" who prides comfort WITH functionality. Since I am not use to wearing technical material, my review is for the newbies. I found these pants to fit one size smaller then the Gamma LT Pants, I am about 5'4 130lbs (more hip heavy). In the hip area, these fit slightly looser then my 8S gamma LT and these are a little very slightly less crinkly and crunch sounding then the gamma. I will note, that these aren't those tight tapered pants are smooth down the legs, it does bunch a bit at the bottom but I presume that's a good thing if you need room for movement and not sitting at a coffee shop ;) Overall, I am super excited to wear these pants in the fall, and look forward seeing other colors. BRIGHT COLORS PLEASE!!

A: Seems like durable and functional

A: WE NEED MORE BRIGHTER COLORS!

Not a Good Fit

Quality of these are great but fit is not. Too big in the butt and hips for a fit in the waist. Bought 0 Short and the hips were very big, waist is also quite high, past the belly button length was great. Was hoping they would fit. Sizing with Arc'teryx is going downhill. Gamma being one of there long standing essentials is not the same as the past. The designs, fit, and sizing have changed so much in the past few years. Hoping they get back to consistent sizing

A: Great Fabric

A: Fit - Not proportional

Wearing them for mtn biking

This tapered fit is perfect for hiking and mountain biking :) I can rock knee pads and a shammy under them no problem. I will say that this style hits me much higher in the waist and is a bit smaller than my previous gamma pants of various variations. There's also a tiny lip of fabric over the pocket zippers - not a big fan of that BUT I believe that most people are as it protects their zips. Overall, same comfortable material, same quality product, new fit and use :).

Best. Pants. Ever.

Upon pulling these out of the package you realize why these are so expensive and why they are worth every penny. They are durable, flexible, breathable, water resistant, everything you could want in an outdoor pant. I’ve already worn them for hiking, outdoor climbing, indoor climbing, and I’m excited to wear them for my tour du Mont Blanc trip this summer. I purchased the pants for backpacking (and for that trip) and I find myself wearing them for just about everything else, too. One of my biggest pet peeves is when brands claim that pants can hold up outside and they have a hole within a few wears. I can confirm this has not happened with the gamma pants, yet, and I’m sure it won’t for a long time.

INCONSISTENT SIZING

I bought 3 pairs of the Gamma Tapered Pants recently (one each of black, blue and olive), loved them (gave 5 star rating), and decided to load up on all the colors, ordering 1 additional olive, 2 black and 2 blue. ALL the pants in both orders were the same size and length. The first order, all fit perfectly. The second order two weeks later, 3 out of 5 did NOT fit! The one olive pair fit; one blue fit and the other blue was tight in the waist; both pairs of black felt one to two sizes too small (waist and inseam too small). Seriously Arcteryx, get your quality control back up to par! That's roughly a 50% fail rate!!! I know the size I should order (I think) because the first 3 pairs were great, and two of the 5 in the second order fit properly. But now I'm have to reluctantly return 3 pairs and unsure what to do about reordering. I fear they'll be too large if I go up a size, but have no clue whether they'll fit properly if I just reorder 3 more (2 black; 1 blue). It appears to be a total craps shoot on sizing. These are very comfortable and versatile pants. I use them for dog walking, for hospital volunteer visits (instead of scrubs), for general everyday wear instead of jeans. I WANT multiple pairs of each color. But it's really tough to order when Arcteryx is this INCONSISTENT with sizing. It's a shame how bad they've become lately because I used to be able to count on placing an order and 3 pairs of the same pants would all fit the same. Unfortunately there is no store near me that sells them, so no option to go in and try them on.

Absolutely love these pants!

I have the Gamma LT's and ordered the same size in the Gamma Tapered Pant. I like the fit of the Tapered version better. I loved the cuffed ankle, and the cut of the Tapered version. I bought in all 3 colors (black, dark blue, and camo green). The only question is whether I splurge and buy more since Arcteryx has a nasty habit of discontinuing anything I find and love. You can move easily in these pants, and the pockets are large enough to hold an iPhone in a slim case (the max phone might not fit, though).

Best pants

I struggle to find pants that fit well with my athletic build, 5’8 145lbs and the 6 regular sat right at my ankle which is where I wanted it. These pants are relaxed in the thigh and calf while still being flattering, and are the right fit around the waist, (original gamma are a little snug in my thighs). The ankle cuff isn’t too tight either which is nice. Amazing material, light and breathable yet durable and stretchy. Performed great while climbing, and I will for sure be wearing them hiking too. Need all the Color’s!!

Casual style with all the gamma sportiness

I have hardly stopped wearing these ever since I got them. I love the high waist fit, more casual look to the belt and pockets along with the tapered, jogger style leg. I wish I could have gotten a 14 short (I’ve got slightly more torso than legs) as the legs are a bit too long and causes a shapeless bunching of material at the knee, but I have cuffed the bottom one more time and that has largely resolved it. Same great gamma lt fabric and feel, with good stretch and a bit more relaxed fit to the thighs than the sportier, more technical fitting gamma lt pants.
