We are happy to hear this style fits so well and is comfortable (which is a necessity while traveling). The Belay Pant should fit the same and give the same comfort.

All around warm weather wear.
I like these shorts so much, I ordered the belay pants too. My waist to hip ratio is larger than normal, so I usually have a hard time finding shorts and pants that fit. The stretch in the waistband is enough to accommodate my size. The size chart for the hip measurement is accurate. The only thing that would make these better is to have back pockets too.
Thanks for all of your helpful input on the Belay line. We really appreciate all of your support! !

Casual wear, golf
I love the fit, very comfortable and I can do a lot of moving in these. Only issue is the tag on the inside waistband, if I do not wear a tucked-in shirt the tag rubs and annoys me.
