I ordered these pants for our upcoming trip to Costa Rica. Last time we were there in the "dry" season we were soaked to the skin in the rain forest region. These pants are exactly what I wanted in so much as they are light weight, waterproof and seem to be breathable. I also love the style, I wanted something I could wear out walking the pup and then running around too. The only problem with the pants is that the inseam is on the short side. I am 5'7 and the pant barely brush my lower ankles, and that is with me wearing the rise lower on my hips. (Other than the inseam, the pants do seem true to size.) Bummer, now I have to pay return shipping and find something else!

Recommended for all you fabulous petites!
