Columbia Women's Saturday Trail Stretch Pant

I purchased the Just Right capri, the Aruba capri and the Saturday Trail Capri in identical sizes. I also order the Saturday Trail pant and Anytime Outdoor boot cut pant. There is quite a bit of difference in fit. With this garment I see in the listing that it talks about how the different styles are cut. That should be in ALL the listings and not just in some of them. It should also be clearly stated how the particular garment you are looking at falls in that chart.The Just Right capri is much looser in the waist and leg when compared to the Saturday Trail knee pant. They are not baggy, just not as close to the skin. Definitely a more relaxed feel. They are also a few inches longer. The Saturday Trail comes midway across my knee cap, the Just Right capri come a good 2-4 inches below my knee.I like both and will keep both, however the Saturday Trail is a bit tight at the waist and as there is no give in the waistband or the ability to custom size by having snaps in several locations along the waist band, I had better not gain any weight! They have a more athletic look to them.The Saturday Trail line of knee pants and longs pants can NOT be "dressed up" as it really looks athletic with a fit very close to the body. The Saturday Trail knee pant has an adjustable stretchy elastic through the bottom which you can slide to make it completely closed against the leg or leave open/relaxed where you then have in my case at least a couple inches or so loose. As that piece (which I can't for the life of me remember the name of it right now) is outside the hem, it is visible when worn and gives a very casual sporty look to the Saturday trail capri.I had ordered the Aruba pant that could be rolled up to a capri length that was said to run small so order one size larger. It did fit around the waist but was so baggy around the butt and particularly around my legs that it looked terrible. Only if overall the cut is a size too small or size to big can going up/down work for you. When it is just the waist which is small and the remainder is cut a size too big it makes for a terrible fit. If you are built with larger hips and legs and a small waist I recommend the Aruba otherwise the fit just won't work for you. The other issue with the Aruba is it had only an exterior button to hold the cuff in place so the inside of the leg kept coming unrolled (especially since it was already too large in the leg). So if you are looking for pants that turn into capris I would recommend the Saturday Trail Pant. Yes it runs slimmer just as the knee pants do, but when rolled up it fits closer to your leg and has buttons on both the inseam and outside seam to hold the cuff in place. I really appreciate the versatility that having the capacity to wear as either a long pant or a capri that the Saturday Trail pant provides. When cuffed it looks like it was intended to be that way as opposed to looking like you just rolled up a pair of long pants!I had also ordered the Just Right long pant in a boot cut. I loved the fit, not as tight as the Saturday Trail around the waist and not as close to the body over all. But a boot cut without wearing a boot just looks a bit silly! I tried them on with sandals and from the side they looked great but from the front and back they looked "bell" shaped on the bottom as a result of the boot cut which is really not flattering on most women. If I end up wearing these in the fall and winter, I can see going back and getting one with a boot cut as I have so man pairs of boots. Unlike the Saturday Trail, the Just Right long pant doesn't really work well as a rolled up capri so you loose that bit of versatility.The first two pairs of Columbia pants I purchased were at Marshalls and I paid no attention to the name of them. When I went to get more I had to order one of most styles to find the pant which came closer to the ones I purchased last year which must have been discontinued. (If you know how to find the style number/name from interior tags let me know please!)While I have not tired other companies versions of the Columbia bottoms, I tend to be brand loyal when I find one which is so well made, which washes well, fits well and will last for more than one season. I can't compare to the Eddie Bauer for example because the Columbia ones while more expensive had performed so well that I had no interest in trying them. I would be interested in reviews which compare other manufacturers pants for future reference but for now I am sticking with Columbia, they are simply that good.HOPE THIS HELPS! And to all the buyers who leave detailed reviews THANK YOU. I always look at the customer reviews on Amazon because they are generally so well done

I really wanted to love these because I am a big fan of Columbia. However, I do not like these at all. I am normally a size 4, but sized up based on other reviews. Still, the waist (and I have a pretty narrow waist) was too tight and the rise was too short and the whole effect was unflattering. Will be returning. Oh - as an aside, the fabric is a very nice feeling tech fabric and would be light enough for summer hiking.

I love these hiking pants for the fit and price. I got them for about $36 on here and I want to buy more, but the fabric is INCREDIBLY pil-y. I also noticed that some seams come undone. Not ones that affect the structural integrity of the pants, but still annoying if you are paying more than I paid. I've had them for almost a year now, and worn them about an average of three days a week. I'm still looking for my "perfect hiking pants" but overall these are serviceable for now. For reference I am 5'6", 130lbs, with weight mainly in my hips and thighs and I am wearing a size 6. I find them a little roomy but in a very nice way that allows for eating salty snacks in excess when camping. ;) I also tend to prefer pants that hug the calves a little more than most hiking pants do, so these were a solid bootcut design that suits my needs.The pockets have a mesh lining that allows for breathability which is great in summer. The side pocket is nice, but I wish there was one on each side! The back pockets are basically useless to me because 1) Fumbling with velcro is not fun and 2) I don't really put stuff in my back pockets because I am forgetful and will probably sit on it. I would say also that the "Saturday" labeling of them is quite accurate. I would not wear these on an extended through hike due to the pilling and tendency for seams to come undone. (which would make me worry about them eventually falling apart completely while in the middle of the woods) But they are good for casual day hikes, being on a boat (quick dry, SPF in on point), car camping, etc. and are comfortable in temperatures of spring, summer and fall for my temperate climate (Northeast USA). I would not suggest using them as your winter pants unless you live in a warm climate or are very well layered and tolerant to cold.Overall: Love the fit, but wish they didn't pil! My rating is between 3 stars and 4 depending on how much you end up paying for them and while I do use them regularly, I'm still searching for something with a better quality of material. I may purchase another of these jeans in a darker color to see if they maybe use a non-piling material for that variety or if it doesn't show up as badly (I have the fossil color, which is a beige and in person it does look like the picture, but the pilling shows up TERRIBLY it looks like I'm covered in little speck of dirt and there's so much piling that it's hard to get off with traditional means).

I purchased two of the same product (different colour). I read previous reviews and sized up one size. The black fits perfectly. However, the other one fits very tight . I’m so disappointed. Columbia is a hit or miss with sizes.

Ho dovuto fare il reso perché era troppo grande, se ci fosse stata la taglia più piccola lo avrei preso sicuramente perché è veramente molto bello. Columbia è sempre una garanzia, anche se si possono avere difficolta nell’individuare la taglia corretta. Ma ripeto, prodotto davvero bello!

Shipped promptly, fits like a glove.I love those pants, already got 3 pairs of different colors.I wear size 10, regular

Medidas correctas y claras, el pantalón es Justo lo que esperaba.

I'm 5'2 and 130lb bought a 4 but was too small. Had to exchange for a 6. Go with your regular sizing. The length of inseam for petite was perfect for me!
