I wanted to wait a while before reviewing these to put them through the "real" test...  Wearing them.

First and foremost, I am tall and most pants don't fit me.  The tall size was the perfect length and the sizing is as expected.

The fabric has a very slight stretch to it that allows it to move with you.  It has a more "rugged" feel to it than pants not designed for hiking, but that's important when having to climb down steep bits of trail and/or scrambling up and/or sitting on rocks.  There are no signs of early wear on this fabric.

I took these pants with me on a trip back east because they are light and easy to pack.  I wore them roaming the streets of Washington DC, hiking the AT in West Virginia, the Maryland Heights overlook and Great Falls in Virginia.  I wore them again when I got home to hike in Olympic National Forest.

Roomy cargo pockets mean I don't need to carry a purse/bag when navigating transit/walking through a crowded city.  The Velcro cargo pocket holds my Galaxy S9 (not a small phone) perfectly and the zipper pocket is perfect for ID, train pass, credit cards, etc...

I took a chance on a brand I've never heard of because the name brand pants are ridiculously expensive.  I'm glad I did..
