Gamma Pant Women's

I use the pants for hiking. For me it has the perfect fit - I bought a 6-T - it is lightweight, comfortable to wear, and the fabric appears to be robust. I actually bought a second pair because I like it so much.

Love the fit and length of the pant. The material feels elevated but also high performance.

The inseam description for these is very misleading. I’m 5’10 and ordered a 6T and the inseam is only 29.5 inches at best. The description says a tall would be 34 inches, but it references a 32T as the example. So maybe this got mixed up with the mens sizing? Either way, 29.5 is way too short for a tall size. Especially since the short size inseam is supposedly 29.

Oof, this new cut is bad. Please bring back the athletic, functional, tailored cut rather than this sad attempt at fashion.

Let me start by saying that the older version of these pants were incredible. I own 5 pairs, and I wear them everywhere for everything. After the zippers finally gave out on a couple of my older pairs, I bought a new Gamma Pant a few months ago. I've had a few months of wearing them to see what I think. First, I find the high waist to be really annoying to wear when hiking or working outdoors. It's not comfortable, and they frequently ride up. I know that high waisted pants are back in style, but in my opinion, these are not cutting it. I also noticed that the new version is baggier in the leg, which is not needed and just makes the pants feel bulky. Finally, the new waist belt is AWFUL. After just a few trips through the washing machine, the waist belt has become completely twisted. I haven't been able to straighten it out, and it makes the pants pretty uncomfortable to wear. Like others have pointed out, the old buckle across the front snap was far superior to the new flimsy snap. I definitely got my money's worth out of my old pairs of Gamma pants, but I feel like I wasted $200 on these. I hope Arc Teryx makes some much needed adjustments in the future so I can start loving these pants again. Until then, I guess I'll continue to wear out my old ones.

I LOVE the Gamma Pant I bought in 2023 and I wore them almost every day. They still look new. They had a clean look (thanks to the built in sinch hook belt thingie at the top of the pant - I'll get more into that later), they NEVER popped open, and they withstood hours of prairie tromping in rough grass, over barbed wire and so on. I give them 5 stars and they remain my favorite pants in my wardrobe. I loved the pants so much I bought 2 more pairs last fall (I'm wearing one of those pairs now). These are the pants I'm giving 2 stars because you took away the adjustable belt with the hook close that over the button. The pants from 2023 had a strong hook, which kept the pants closed and button buttoned when doing field stuff (squatting during field work whether it's to set up cameras or examine plants, etc.). This belt also went over the snap button at the top of the pant - which kept that snap button closed. The pants also had a cleaner look - great for post-fieldwork meetings and such. Finally - and perhaps critically, you could adjust the belt as your weight fluctuated throughout the month... that's a thing for women. The new pants are a flimsier snap close button which doesn't stay open when you have to twist or move a lot, and that button is getting weaker with every snap despite the fact that I've been losing weight and the pants are getting looser. (I'm actually two sizes smaller now and they always pop open when I bend over, kneel or get out of my chair). PLEASE bring back the hook close adjustable belt thingie in your next series. (I noticed the men's pants still have these and I guess I can buy the male version until the female version is updated. Thing is, females have more weight fluctuation so I'm surprised you removed them for women AND increased the price of the pants).

Perfect look, perfect feel, perfect fit. Although the size chart suggested a size 10, I ended up buying a size 6, which fits me perfectly. The material is durable yet comfortable, and the design is sleek and versatile. Highly recommend!
