Customer Reviews The North Face Aphrodite 2.0 Pants

They started pulling day one. The fit wasn’t as comfortable as expected either. I have another pair I bought from REI so I wanted a second pair. I wear them for work hiking in the field. They’re the same pants, same tag but made in different countries. The first pair fit loose and comfortable and longer and have never pilled. This new pair not as loose or long or comfortable. I’m disappointed considering the price and comfort and durability is what I need for work.

The pants pill so badly I can only wear them at home out of public view. So very sad as they are comfortable but for the price they are not worth it. At least Lululemon who may be purchasing material from the same place will back their product. Very sad. Wish I had not bought so many pair prior to wearing them.

I was all prepared to ship these back because they were too long. I am 5'3" and decided to use the drawstring to adjust the length... to my surprise the pants are nice and snug just above my ankle ( or higher if I like). I made a little knot in the drawstring and was on my way. I'm so happy I decided to keep them.

These pants are spectacular. They're comfortable and the quality is apparent in the stitching and the durability of the fabric. Even with an elastic and drawstring waist, they are flattering on the butt and don't look too baggy. The leg opening at the cuff is perfectly sized to sit on top of hiking shoes. This color will match everything. It's so hard to find tasteful neutral colors these days! I love these! 5'5" 135lb Size Medium.

Very comfortable, lightweight pants that will be great for summer. I live in an area where tics can be a problem, and since these pants have cinching at the cuff I will be able to tighten them around my ankles. The fabric feels like it will breath well, and the wide stretchy waistband provides a great fit. I have found that most athletic/hiking pants seem to have short rises, which doesn't work for me. Fortunately I tried these and the rise is comfortable for me. I ordered the gray, in size medium, with a 30" inseam. I am 5' 3-1/2" tall, 126 lbs., hips 38".

These are my new favorite pants ever. I've hiked in these pants (warm and cold weather) and lounged in them, even gone for a run! I wear them to relax (they're as comfy as sweatpants) and I can dress them up with a blouse to look nice. The pockets are big enough for my phone (yay!) and the elastic waist is perfect so they don't fall down. The fabric is so soft, comfy and breathable. The only thing I don't like is that they tend to stretch quite a bit with wear and then look too baggy. Also, I've noticed some pilling but only inside the pockets so far (2-3 months.) I am usually a size large but they were way too big for me so I got a medium. My mom also got the pants and sized down from her normal size. I recommend these pants to everyone I know so if you're thinking about buying them DO IT!

I love these pants much I ordered the black & grey pair!! Very comfortable, soft & light material. I wear them hiking, biking, around town & even found out how to pull them off in a corporate environment. I'm 5/4, between a size 4-6 & the size small fits perfect. The length hits perfect & the waist is on the higher side.

I've always had a hard time finding pants that fit me (having a tall athletic build with narrow waist and hips and muscular legs) but THESE... these are the ones. They fit perfectly around my waist and have plenty of stretch for my legs. and the length is perfect too. I have long legs so that's a big deal. The range of motion I have in these makes me feel unstoppable and they are so flattering (my booty has never looked better) For reference: I'm 5'10" 138 lb. 26 in waist, 35 in hips, ordered a size small regular.

A friend of mine actually had them on and I asked her about them--she loved them--so I ordered and also like them very much (intend to order another pair)

I am a PE teacher so I spend most of my time outside and these are my go to sweats. They are great for wind and rain weather. They are stretchy and move well with everything you do and have a good length to them for people with long legs. They are stylish so you can wear them out with a nice top and still look good. I love to wear them for any outdoor recreational stuff like hiking. I even wore them skydiving at 18,000 ft and they broke the wind just fine up there and free falling at 120 mph.

I love these pants so much I wear them every day as my work uniform. I've bought several pairs to be able to wear a clean pair every day of the week. I work in Healthcare and these pants are so comfortable to wear while I perform patient care that includes exercising, bending, lifting and squatting.

I love these pants. They are exactly what I was looking for for hiking this spring --light weight, comfy, cute, sporty, good mobility, or at least I assume there will be good mobility once I get the smalls I just ordered. The XSmalls have to go back since I can just barely shimmy my size 2 ass into them.

I liked the black pair so much I ordered four more colors in the same size, a small. The colored pairs were all tighter in the waste and shorter in length for some reason, so I ended up returning them. For reference I am 5' 9" and size 4 in Lululemon leggings. The Aphrodite 2.0 is similar to Lulu's Studio pant but I can no longer wear those because they changed the fit and are uncomfortable since they are now very low waisted and tighter in the hips and seat. The quality of these NF pants could be better for the price and they do pill a bit even with hang drying them. For the most part the black pair in this pant suits my needs for comfortable and stylish causal wear.

These pants are are fantastic! Light weight and wear well. Just enough pockets and they fit just right! Love that you can cinch them at the bottom. Loved them so much I bought a second pair. I'm 57 years old and it's important to have a good fit that makes you feel great!

Appreciate that it comes in XXS short since I am very petite and pants tend to be too long and too loose. However, I wish it was just an inch shorter, it would be the perfect length. I love that there's enough room in the thighs to move freely, but the waist is small enough and feels secure. These pants are also slimming, the cut is perfect and drape nicely over bulking hiking boots. I loved these so much, I went back online to purchase another in a different color!

Love these pants and now own them in 3 colors. Just enough stretch, the fabric feels great and they are very flattering. These are my go to pants when traveling and sitting on an airplane or in a car for hours. I am 5’7” and 150 lbs and the M fits perfectly.

Got these pants for mountain hiking. I love that I can wear them alone or with layers underneath. Great flexibility and comfort! I'm 5'4" and 138 pounds, the mediums are a wee bit loose and the smalls a wee bit snug, both would work just fine but per the recommendation of a North Face online chat employee I'm keeping the mediums (he says they'll shrink a bit in the wash).

I love the way they fit and feel. I can wear them out dancing, to the gym or walking my dog.

I wore these four times with one wash in between, cold water and line-dry only. I'm already experiencing a ridiculous amount of pilling on the back of the pants. Plus, there are several loose threads in the fabric. They're comfortable, but I'm disappointed by their lack of durability.

I have loved the Aphrodite pant and have previously bought 2 pairs of capris in the Aphrodite style and in November 2018, I bought the black Aphrodite long pant. I love the fit and feel of the black pant - it washes and dries well, remaining soft and not shrinking. I decided to order another long pant in Graphite - same size as the others (M). I could barely get the waist band over my hips, plus the seat and thighs felt way too tight to be comfortable. Something seems to have changed in North Face's manufacturing of the Aphrodite pant since I got the black pair in 2018. Beware if you are usually a Medium - I returned and didn't reorder a Large because I think it would be too big.

Excellent, form fitting (I bought a Med. , 5'6", 140lb.), - the Large fit too if I wanted a more baggie look. Elastic to cinch or not at the ankles and the best material - cool to wear even in hot weather.

Love it, really light and quick dry. I'm tall 163cm with size M perfect for me., looks cool in the city at well.

Love these pants (black). They are very comfy and fit perfectly. Although the fabric is very thin and light they are surprisingly warm, keeping the cold wind completely out (testing them right now at 39 F). Couldn’t be more pleased. I wore them at least 10 times and they do not show any sign of piling.

I own four pair of these and two capri length as well. I pretty much don't wear any other pants now. I am very curvy and sized pants never fit me, so I have to go for elastic or drawstring waists like this. I love how they give me a J. Lowe booty. I must say that the black pair I have (which I got in 2018) collects cat hair like crazy, whereas the other colors I have do not. Also, the black ones - well, you can't see the ruching and so they just end up looking dumpy. Very bizarre that the black would be my least favorite. Not sure if they have changed the fabric, your mileage may vary.

I love this pant, with the exception of two things. First, they attract lint so badly that I have started carrying a lint roller in my car just for when I wear them. Secondly, they are too short! I wish North Face would make them in a long!!! I'm only 5'7", but if I don't constantly pull them down low on my waist, they look too short.
