Why We Like The Mountain Hardwear AP Active Pant
The Mountain Hardwear Hardwear AP Active Pant takes us from coffee in the city, to afternoon bouldering sessions, to evening strolls in the foothills with ease. Reflective strips under the cuff increase visibility on low-light commute rides home from the office, and the roll-up snap closure on the hem keeps our pants from getting caught in the crankset. Plus, with articulated knees and stretchy cotton construction, we always have a full range of motion through our daily adventures.

Improved little things, still great
I purchased an older series of these pants a few years ago and they are my go-to hiking pants, but not without some draw backs. The older pair are not quite as flexible, are a more baggy straight legged design and, while comfortable, they tend to bunch up uncomfortably at my hips and bits with my belt. This new series looks and feels like MH fixed all the prior little niggles, and continued to keep them as some of the best hiking pants I’ve ever worn

Pretty great pant
These are some of my favorite pants for outdoor activities to date. They’re comfortable, breathable, and look great. My only issue l, and the only reason I can’t give them a 5 star review, is because of the pockets. The pockets are way too high and the mesh lining gets snagged on almost everything I put in there. Don’t get me wrong, because the pockets are higher the pockets themselves are deeper, but they’re just way too high up. The color is great and goes with a lot of my gear. The fabric is also tough; I do a lot of hiking and these pants have stood up to the most rigorous trails so far. I’ll be looking to get another pair in a different color, but maybe wait until the pocket situation is fixed.

Very disappointed
I previously bought this type of pants a few years ago, and I loved them. I decided to purchase more because they held up well and the fit was good. This round I am less than pleased. 1) The pants are almost an inch shorter than my other ones, despite having ordered the same size. 2) They have a snag after 2 wears. I am a teacher, didn’t even try to hike in them. The other pairs I’ve had for years have zero snags. The new material is inferior and the length sizing is off.

Good pants, Small Pockets
Nice feeling pants, the main issue is that the pockets are so shallow it barely fits a phone.

On and off the trail
Sharp looking pants that I wear in the office and on the trail. Great pant that looks crisp after long travel days. The fit is accurate for me and I used the Fit Guide.

Tough and compliant
Good trousers for an active lifestyle that can take you anywhere from the clinic to the bush. More durable than most trousers advertised for demanding activities. Thank you MHW

Shallow pockets along with narrow pocket
I like the material of these pants, however as many other reviewers noted, the pockets are an issue. My issue with both the front pocket depth (they are quite shallow compared to all other pants) as well as the width of the right thigh pocket (it's too narrow to fit my phone compared to other MH pants with this pocket). Also, the leg length is shorter than most MH pants I wear.

Lightweight material but double check the pocket
I like the lighter, stretchier material on these compared to the classic AP pants. Although I really wished they would have kept the right leg thigh pocket the same size as the classic AP pants. I like to carry my phone in this pocket and the pocket on the AP Active Pant is more narrow than my phone, which is a bummer.
