Reviews

Best pants ever

"I’ve worn these for a few years now. They are the best outdoors/work pants ever. Camped/hiked/workout in these pants on a constant basis. Still have plenty of life. Fit true to normal brand sizes."

— Brotherrondell (5/5)

Great fit

"I was pleased with these pants, I'm a short guy (5'4), so pants are difficult to find in a 30x30 that fit well without being too long. These are light weight, very comfortable, they don't bind up in the crotch. As soon a more stock is replenished, I'll be ordering additional pairs of pants"

— Carlos C. (5/5)

Roadworthy

"Used these as hiking and riding pants. Never felt restricted or uncomfortable on long hikes and they'd clean up every time no matter how much sand, dirt or mud they got covered in. Abrasion resistance was excellent. Got into a motorcycle accident and they were still intact after I went over the hood of a car at 45 mph and was sent bouncing and sliding down the pavement. I credit still having all the skin on my legs to these pants. 11/10."

— Quincey P. (5/5)

Quality is worse since no longer made in USA

"The old GORUCK challenge pants and simple pants were perfect. Since the production has moved overseas, the sizing is now inconsistent (I've had pants that are 2" wider than list). Hard to tell if quality will last like the old ones did. Paying the same price for something that is no longer made in the USA is a tough sell."

— Craig (3/5)

"They fit great around my waist and theyre a good weight. Flexible enough to jump and squat without hindrance. Ran a bit long lengthwise."

— Jake (4/5)

Got these in gray. STILL

"Got these in gray. STILL waiting on the tan to get back in stock ! But these are worth the wait. A few months passed from my first pair purchased in black. Same build and quality as my first pair, fit is the same, awesome ,but just a different color. Grab a pair in every color, you'll wear these all the time. Great for work outs on hikes with the dogs, rucking, and around town ! The weight of these pants are GREAT for spring and summer. They dry quick."

— Mike M. (5/5)

Great!

"The pants are great, look great, fit great, dry great"

— Joshua K. (5/5)

Awesome Pants

"Absolutely love these pants - amazing material (breathable, durable, comfortable), great fit, and made to GoRuck’s exacting quality standards. The price point is equivalent to comparable 5. 11 products, but GoRuck is superior in my opinion. These pants are not too heavy, and work fine for all seasons here in FL. I usually wear a 30” or 32” inseam depending on the brand. For these, the 30” was a hair too short and the 32” was perfect. Add to cart!"

— Robert B. (5/5)

"Too large"

— Adrean (1/5)

Great products

"My name is Bill and I have a Goruck problem😀. My wife and I have so much of their gear, you wouldn't believe it. Not just rocks and weight plate carriers, but several pairs of ballistic trainers, a pair of rough runners, simple pants, simple shorts, shirts, socks, brick bags, travel gear, sandbags, sandbells, sandballs. All highly recommended👍"
