Rugged, yet comfortable.
We built the Shenanigan Pants to be the most rugged everyday pant in your lineup, tough enough for trail missions yet comfortable enough for everything else you get into. The magic is in the unique nylon twill fabric that looks and feels like a softer, stretchier version of denim without the swooshy noise of typical outdoor pants. It is lightweight, durable, and dries quickly when the weather goes sideways.
A gusseted construction gives you unrestricted movement on steep trails or airport sprints, while the grippy waistband and internal G hook belt keep everything securely in place. Mesh lined pockets manage heat and moisture, and the combination of front, rear, and side zip pockets gives you more than enough storage for daily carry, travel essentials, and whatever small items you usually lose.
From trail days to workdays to the kind of days that blur the line between the two, the Shenanigan Pants deliver dependable comfort, clean style, and real performance. They are built to take a beating and keep coming back for more.

Great Quality Pants
Loving these pants. I can't go back to jeans after wearing these. They look better and are way more comfortable.

Perfect Do-It-All Pants
Love these pants! Very lightweight feel while wearing them, but the fabric feels very durable and sturdy. Great stretch as well!

Pair It With
My favorite pair of pants! I wear them all the time for just about any occasion. They're super comfortable, and I especially love the utility hooks and zippered back pockets. Stylish, practical, and versatile!
Perfect size
Great comfy pants. Love the texture.
These are my new go-to pants. They're super comfortable and are great for travel
I have used these as an alternative to jeans and they are very comfortable and noticebly lightweight. I like that they have a built in belt - one less thing to consider.
There are great pants my favorites, I got the three colors waiting on another addition from KETL
A really good pair of pants! The fabric is stretchy enough to add that extra bit of comfort. I did a bit of gardening in them today. They are comfortable, and would make excellent travel pants. The fit is good if not maybe a little on the small side. I normally buy 34” waste jeans but I needed to go with the 36” Shenanigans. My only complaint is that there are not enough length options. I’m a short guy so a 28” length option would have been appreciated.
“If Zeus were pants, it would’ve been these!”
The Shenanigan pants exceeded my expectations so much that I bought a second pair. I absolutely love them—they’re awesome!
It is everything I was expecting. The style and feel are what you advertise but they seem to be run a bit big. Maybe I should have ordered one size smaller. The only thing I’d add to your lineup is a 36” length. Other than that they are a perfect pant. I’ll be ordering another pair soon and shorts and possibly a jacket and shirt.
Thanks for advertising on Facebook.

I love them and wear them pretty much every other day!
Favorite hiking/travel pants I have found. Material tough. Wore on 8 day to top of Kilimanjaro
The material is stretchy and durable. I've worn it hiking in mountains around Phoenix and they were pretty comfortable.
These were my first purchase from Ketl Mountain, and I was impressed enough to quickly order more. The fit is excellent, and they breathe well and stretch with you. They're also durable and look good enough to wear anywhere. The overall quality is well above what I expected at this price. I bought some of Ketl's other products to get ready for cooler morning hikes as fall and winter approach. I'm replacing much of my existing hiking clothes with Ketl Mountain gear.
Excellent fit and comfortable fabric. I’ve worn these for hikes in Rocky Mountain National Park and 20 mile bike rides with no issues. I’ve also been caught in a few rain storms and these dried out surprisingly quick.
So comfortable, I sometimes throw them on at home. The magic is really in the material, which is strong, light and breathable while also being what I can only describe as "affirmingly stretchy"-- it's present and supportive, without ever being binding or restrictive.
Hello - When do you think M(31-33) 30” inseam will be back in stock?

Hey Jerry! Thanks for your interest and reaching out! 30" Shenanigan pants are due back in stock in July so several months out still. We'll have more 30" Tomfoolery and Vent Lightweight pants in March though so keep an eye out!
