Reasons NOT to buy:
User Reviews
- No adjustment on the inseam length for various body types.
- No belt loops or belt cinch, limiting the adjustability in the waist area.

- Not very compressible, making packing a bit more tedious.
Summary:
The Mountain Hardwear Compressor Pant for men is a relatively lightweight and warm synthetic pant. The reinforced knees and seat of the pants protect high use areas, although some users complain that the ankle cuffs could use similar reinforcements. Naturally, a pant like these is not easily packable, but the breathability, comfort, and durability make this a top choice.
