Gramicci Men's Highline Pants : Designed for Movement

As I mentioned in another review, I'm a long-time fan of Grammicci's tough cotton climbing and casual wear. My current favorite: their Highline Pants.

Here's why I like them: They're made out of soft, but strong 100% cotton. They have a hidden stash pocket for my credit cards; if I get mugged on the trail, my cards will never be discovered! They have a loose, comfy fit, with generous side pockets.

Also, Gramicci's signature gusseted crotch ensures freedom of movement when I'm scrambing over boulders. The elastic waist and belt secures the pants without feeling too tight. One feature that I don't use too often that might come in handy is the hidden elastic drawstring-adjustable cuff near the ankle.

Bottom Line: Durability, fit, attention to detail, sturdy construction, and extreme comfort --what more could you ask for in a pant?.--G.P. (Dec '06)
