These are very lighweight but they really lack durability. I've worn them only a handful of times and already have 2 tears in them, the first tear literally happened on the first day I wore them. I've had other arborwear pants (canopy) for years and they don't have any tears.I have worn the canopy pants for years. I saw that these were cheaper so I figured I'd give them a try. So far they are great! Very lightweight but offers all the mobility of the canopy pants. I highly recommend you grab a pair of these.
