Nice Pants
I have used the Mistral pants on several climbs, and they are really great. I`ve had them jammed into awkward off-width knee/body scrums, and not even a scratch on the outer shell. These pants fit well under my harness, and the zipper is easily accessible to answer the call. The pocket on the left thigh is large enough for a point and shoot camera and a candy bar. They are wind/water resistant, and I think they will wear for a long time. My overall rating would be 10/10.

excellent
Very good all around 3-season soft-shell pants. Extremely water reppelent and the dwr is holding up very nice after 2 years. They breathe extremely well yet still keep everything short of a major downpour out. They could be a little more wind resitant, as anything over about 25 mph seems to get through, but it's a give and take. I personally like it cuz it extends their comfort range into the summer months. Overall highly recommended hiking, running, climbing pant that should last for years.
