Would be perfect if the sleeves in the forearms area weren't so tight

They performed in every way, as described.

I bought the Tomfoolery Chino Travel Pants for a trip to Boston and Vermont and wore them for five days straight. They were supremely comfortable on a 4-hour plane flight in an excruciatingly uncomfortable seat. They stretched every which way with me on Stowe's 5-mile Pinnacle Trail as I scrambled over boulders and up and down steep inclines. Mud that had dried on them wiped right off and the pants dressed up well for some nice dinners out in Boston. They are very well made and the fit was great. Now I look forward to adding a pair of Shenanigans to my KETL wardrobe!

Ordered a set of these and they were so good I ordered 3 more.

Best MTB pants out right now, very breathable and versatile. They wont heat up like dharcos or other DH pants and the construction is much better than a fox pant also, while being as breathable as the lightest of their options. 10/10!!

ps. took a spill already and they suffered no damage with a kneepad skid on medium sized rocks.

Great fit & function

Great fit & function. Perfect travel pants - lightweight, packable, and easy to dress-up (pr down) depending on your need. Only improvement I'd wish for is the side zipper to be the same color as the fabric and for the option of heavier-weight fabric (for cooler climates). My first pair & already have a second on order!

Would prefer with belt loops

I like the pants, would love the pants if they had belt loops like the tomfooleries instead of the built in belt.

Super comfy and durable

Super comfy and durable. Pockets are in the right spot - this truly is the most important thing for me in regards to riding pants. Nothing is more annoying than pedaling with your phone in the wrong sport.

Well done all!!

Perfect travel and everyday pants, smart, sleek, and Incredibly Comfortable!

The Tomfoolery Chino Travel Pants are hands down some of the best pants I’ve ever owned. The fit is absolutely perfect slim and flattering without feeling tight, offering just the right amount of stretch and movement. They look sharp enough to wear to a meeting or dinner, yet they’re comfortable enough for a long flight or a full day of walking around a new city.

The zippered pockets are a game-changer for travel.
They keep your essentials secure without adding bulk, and they’re discreet enough to maintain a clean, stylish look.
The material is impressively lightweight and breathable, making these pants ideal for both warm and cooler days.

Overall, these pants strike the perfect balance between style, comfort, and practicality. Whether you’re traveling or just heading out for the day, they’re the kind of pants you’ll want to live in.

Getting Busy

Great pants, throw a pair of Blundstones on and head off to dinner, or feel like you're wearing nothing at all in the office (which out of context could be a little weird).
Maybe you run a little 40 yard dash in the parking lot, you can zip up those pockets so your loose cigarettes and nickels don't fall out. I really like these pants and would absolutely do some winter hiking or trekking in them. Awesome for any time, anywhere,. Unbelievably comfortable and ready to get the job done.
I do have a 30 inch waist and they are a bit on the large size compared to other pants, but the built in waistbelt works great.

Buy These Shorts

I run... a lot. I'm tired of ball straddling liners that make me question my sanity and stench. These don't feel overthought in the way they make me question why everyone else isn't making exactly these shorts. The fabric feels amazing, and they don't ride up.

The phone pocket fits an Iphone 14 however, it is worth noting it's too low and I think an expandable mesh pocket that sits an inch higher would make these perfect. This being said, most longer runs I use a belt anyways.

The gel pockets fit about two Neversecond gels each and would be great for trash storage if you're not looking to just rip a handheld and a couple gels.
These shorts are sick, everyone will be wondering why they don't own them.

It's also worth noting I have a size boys husky waist and the small fits very comfortably but I have had other size smalls that fit a bit more snug.

Buy these shorts, you won't regret it, these are a great product I will be recommending for the foreseeable future unless I manage to sell out.

Best pants I've ever worn

I was on a quest. To find the perfect pants. For chasing a toddler around my yard and the park without losing my keys and wallet. For easily wiping off grubby kid handprints and looking fresh again. For tossing on like joggers and not needing a belt. For being comfy on the couch and the trail. For looking good in any situation. I found them, it's these pants. I'm buying another pair.

I'm 6'2" and 190lbs. My typical pants size is 33 or 34 waist, 34 inseam. I tried a medium and it was far too small in the waist. Although the large is a bit too large for me, they easily cinch down with the belt and stay in place while still feeling roomy. If you fall right in-between sizes like I do, I suggest sizing up.

Khaki / L (33-35) / 30"
My go-to pants

What to say about these pants that hasn’t already been said. They are super comfortable and look great. I wear them almost every day since I can dress them up or down. The no slip waistband is my favorite feature as the pants stay where I like them and they keep my tucked in shirts, well tucked in. Well done Ketl!

Go To Travel Down Jacket

This is my new favorite insulated down jacket. It's lightweight and packable which makes it great for travel and the perforated pits are a nice touch! I had it on in some light rain back east and the DWR worked really well. The unique baffle design is also a nice touch and separates it from other jackets on the market.

very happy with the tomfoolery

So far very happy with the tomfoolery. Fit is good, looks great. I want to abuse them a bit and wash and see how they return to the good fit.
