I've tried all of them and found LEVI'S LOOSE FIT jeans to be the best bang for the buck. Buy 3 pairs at $20 each (still less than 1 pair of any "mountain" pants) and they'll last 3-4 years of climbing every weekend. Even longer if you don't mind patches.
Next time you are in Boulder we can hit up Patagonia and the PrAna store if you need help selecting the pants that will send the right message at the crags!
Tits, It's a date. I need some a edumacation on this subject.
thanks everybody for the input, i do a bit of slab climbing and dont really tackle that many cracks that large, so im gonna give the mountain khakis a try, the worst that could happen is im out 70 dollars...on well thanks a lot for the input, i'm definatly going to be picking up a pair of the arborwears to try out, i definatly like the concept of a pair of carhartts witha gusset, good stuff....
