This is an honest, unbiased review for the Pioneer Camp Men's Hiking Cargo Pants...

Being an outdoor photographer, and avid hiker, I pretty much live in cargo style hiking pants for both work and play. I need extra room for movement as well as holding camera batteries, camera lens caps, lens wipes, power bricks, etc. These pants are about as perfect as i would design myself. I know Pioneer Camp as a solid brand with consistent quality. I have a few pieces of their outdoor clothing and they have all become some of my favorite as they are always comfortable, no nonsense designs, and deliver excellent performance. These cargo pants are no exception as they check all the boxes for me in construction quality, fit, performance, and general fashion design.

Construction quality is top notch, never any loose threads or seams. solid buttons, belt loops, and high end zippers really testify to their quality. The pockets are nice and deep, certainly enough for any phone, small hat/gloves, etc.

Fit is perfect for me in a Large and for reference I'm 5'8"/185lbs, medium build. I love the stretch built in to these as they allow great high stepping, climbing, and hiking freedom. I think it also gives the pants more durability because branches will stretch the fabric instead of just penetrate it so easily. Ankles are zippered for pulling over boots which is a must for muddy day hikes and snow.

They shed water pretty well, while not being fully waterproof. They are indeed water resistant…
