The Best Outdoor Pants Are Also the Most Comfortable

And they are basically waterproof.

Better known for their camping blankets, Coalatree’s Trailhead Pants are the outdoor pant you’ve been waiting for, whether you’re a hiker, camper, ultralight backpacker, skater, climber, or just really like being comfortable.

We’re spoiled for choice when it comes to the categories of outdoor and technical pants, and have been for years, but depending on your preferences, some nagging issues persist across the spectrum. Want a great pair of durable pants with any give in the waist, for example? You’re probably better off looking to stretch denim than browsing through pages of hiking pants.

Coalatree throws out any attempt to have their outdoor clothing masquerade as a pair of chinos, and as such, you won’t be wearing them to the office or likely even to brunch. What you get in return is the most comfortable pair of durable pants you’ll ever wear, with an elastic waist, a drawstring, extreme stretch throughout, super soft pocket interiors, and other creature comforts.

Putting comfort aside, the Trailheads are also basically waterproof, have adjustable ankles, are packable, ultralight, stain resistant, moisture wicking, antimicrobial, and the list goes on. Even if you never make it into the woods, they’re also a perfect just-in-case extra pair of bottoms to pack for a trip.
