Customer Reviews The North Face Paramount Active Pants

These are great pants and would be perfect if they had the built in web belt like the shorts. The drawstring waist is hard to use and difficult to get the right adjustment. But that's the only conand I can live with it. On the up side, they're comfortable, great fit, flexible, etc. I really like them and would recommend them (but hope the designers change the drawstring).

These pants are my go to for hiking, but also can pull off a comfortable casual look in office. They are a very comfortable fit. I own multiple pairs, and went back for another color. The only element I'm not fond of is the black elastic waste-line in the back. Would be nice to have loops for a belt to cover that.

Pants are super comfortable. They allow for great movement. Used them to backpack. Super light so great for warm weather. Love the elastic waistband for backpacking and hiking so don't have to wear a belt. Only cons I have we're the back pocket was completely sewed shut. A little knife work and I was able to cut the stitching. And this was like accidentally stitches. It was stiched closed. The other con and more important con is that they aren't to durable. In two days I managed to put several small holes and some piling on the fabric all over. I would say for backpacking pants there 2-3 stars. But for causal hiking I'd give them 4 stars as that's usually on trails where you won't have to bush whack and worry about the fabric holding up.

The pants were a little snug for me and I could have gone with the long fit with larger stronger legs. I am only 6 ft but the regular were a little short and snug on the thigh. I bought a pair for my father as well. He fits well in them and loves them.

Sleek, professional looking budget friendly pants. Very comfy and stretchy. However, be aware they are very slim fitting. If you have thick legs these are not the pants for you unless you like them very tight.

Comfortable pants however the front pockets need more depth (cell phone slips out easily) and could use belt loops and a built in outside belt (not draw strings).

I wear it for daily commute to work it is comfortable

I wear it daily for commute comfortable

I'm 5'8", 148 lbs and I purchased a size 32. I ended up returning the pants because they were too big for me, otherwise I would have kept them. They were comfortable and had the right amount of stretch, but I do agree with other reviewers and wish that the pants had belt loops.

An unusual pair of pants. There are no back pockets and no belt loops. Otherwise, a comfortable pair of pants, but always weary that the pants won't literally hold up.

Flimsy for the price.

the little north face emblem, logo is made from rubber i believe, and feels vey strange when your skin encounters it. also absorbs static elec, alot, dont know what to do about that

I get that these are supposed to be breathable, but the material just feels cheap and weird because it's so lightweight.

I have two pairs of these pants and use them for hiking and mountaineering. They are great... except they just aren't durable! Both pairs have gotten many holes and rips from brushing up against rock and thick vegetation. Even sitting down on the wrong place on the trail can lead to tears, rips, and holes! So be very careful wearing these if you want them to last.

Good light-weight hiking pants that also have a casual look. Breathable and flexible.

I am returning this product because I don't care for the elastic waistband and strings. Also the front pockets are too shallow like a children's pair.

Waist and length fit exactly as expected, but the legs were extremely baggy. LIke, Hammer Pants baggy. Disappointing, as the fit in the images shows these pants to be very slim, which is exactly what I wanted.

I bought this 3 weeks ago. I was dissapointed that it could not handle 15 mins of walk in rain. My legs were wet and drenched.

Not at all what I expected from the North Face

There are no belt loops on these "pants". These are JOGGING bottoms - just like sweatpants but different materiel. The drawstring is the only way these pants will stay up but one must tie them very tight to stay up, reducing circulation.

Pants feel like they're made of very cheap material. From normal walks in the woods, the smallest branches prick the pants. I have dozens of threads sticking out with only wearing maybe 4-5 times since purchase. The back pocket was sown shut. The front pockets are angled in a terrible way, every time I sit down I have to catch my phone from falling out of my pocket. I would not recommend these pants to anyone really.

Every time you sit down the contents of your pockets will spill out due to terrible pocket design. The pants have one back pocket and mine was half sewn shut. Highly recommend seeking others, I expected more from TNF.
