I am very hard on clothes due to my job, and these pants are nearly indestructible! They are very comfy as well. The weatherprood coating works nicely and will keep you dry as long as your boots and top are also weatherproof. I did break off a button for the fly by getting caught as I was squeezing into a tight area, but the fabric is so tough it allowed me to pull the thread and just sew on a new one without any problems.
