My first impression of the Vapor Lite pants:
Light and soft! Completely different material than the Vapor Lite hoodie. Pants are more of a slick material, so walking through brush won't catch sticks and burr that easy. 5 pockets: 1 zippered back pocket, 2 zippered thigh pockets and 2 hand pockets. I guess the thigh pockets are not for carrying to much heavy items, otherwise they will be flopping around your legs while walking. 2 ventilation zippers, one on each leg. No drawstring at the ankles. So if you need to shorten the length a little, it won't be a problem. And, there's a little bit of stretch in the material! But no stretch around the waist. 8 good sized belt loops. I managed to order 1 size too big, so I can even use them outside a warmer/more weather proof pair of pants if the temperature drops a little. They seem pretty quiet too, despite being polyester.
