Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone can direct me in the right direction as to the brand(s) or specific pants that some of the women (and some men) wear in some of the international competitions. Here are some pictures I found as examples:

These look much more roomy than the pants I wear currently and hey, if they're cheaper, might as well look into em, right? ;)

Thanks!!

They look like Montura, but I'm not certain. Either way, Montura is hard to beat for sport and competition climbing, and their clothing is awesome. Hard to get Stateside though, and even harder on your wallet.

Not sure if you have already looked at Verve, but they are the most Euro climbing pant you can get stateside. Otherwise the comp pics look like every Euro climbing pant that I saw when I was in Spain last September. Look for Trangoworld, Simond, Quechua, Millet and maybe Edelrid.

Take a look at Prana's pants. Much easier to find state side ( they are a San Diego company)

The Prana stuff is pretty great- maybe not quite as Eurostyle as Verve or such but I love climbing in their stuff. The only complaint a lot of people have is that they're made in China, but that's not a bad thing for everyone.

Aren't baggy white painter pants popular anymore?/;-)
Seriously though, I like to try pants on instead of trusting online orders for size, so having run into Prana clothes more than the others, that's what I've been wearing. Plenty of room, grreat fit, comfy and of course pricy as hell.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
