I absolutely love Dovetail pants: how they fit, the solid construction. Normally I wear a 10, but in this style I wear an 8. And the lightweight nature of this ripstop pant is perfect for summers outside with the horses. I do wish that a thigh pocket large enough for my phone were on the right leg - it always seems to be on the left (I also have a pair of the Day Construct), though I suppose that's because for someone working with tools they'd generally want all of those stowed on the right (assuming the person is right-handed). I'm ambilateral, so do some things with my left hand and some with my right, and I carry my phone on the right. But it's a small quibble. Dovetail is my new go-to brand.

They are very comfortable and move well with me thru all sorts of terrain and temps. I do land surveying and it is pretty hard on my clothes and these pants usually last at least a year or longer for me. Other brands don’t last at all. They mostly die because I get caught up in thorns or barbed wire.

These pants fit well, I'm glad to say! I tried the ultra light Britt's in both 8 and 10 and neither fit.

I usually wear a size 10 but with the Anna's read the reviews and ordered a size 8. They fit well and are very comfortable. We had our first day in the 80s so I gave them a try today. Have not washed them yet.

My figure is close to straight up and down. My waist is a size 12, and my hips are a size 8, so I generally compromise at a size 10 and wear a belt when I have to.

These are exactly what I was looking for and check all my boxes. I work in natural resources and am always on the hunt for the perfect work pants each year. I need something more durable and structured than the light hiking pants they advertise for women, but don’t always need full canvas pants, just something in the middle - durable, well fitting and with lots of pockets. I have all different styles of Dovetail and have worn them for years - these remind me of an even better version of the old ripstop Day Construct which I wore until all the pockets ripped out. I’m always jealous of the men’s lightweight work pants styles that can double from office meetings to the field and look good doing both - and these seem to be the perfect fit.

I’d say they’re pretty true to size, but are definitely relaxed. I typically wear a 2 or 4 and went with a 4, but could also fit into a 2 I just wanted a more relaxed fit and not overly snug.

Please keep these around and consider adding more color options! I feel the urge to buy more pairs in case this style doesn’t stick around, but hopefully that’s not the case!

Works as described! Feels great!
