Looking for someone who has used the Montbell Dynamo Windpants.

My question is how clingy/tight fitting the pants are. The 12-denier nylon is super thin, and I don't want to feel like it's glued to my thighs.

I own the Montbell UL Windshirt and really like it. I need a pair of UL breathable pants to wear in chilly, mostly dry weather (I carry DriDuck pants when it gets really wet).

Thanks-FF

That looks like the pair I bought along the AT in April 2007, at least the net weight of 3 ounces is a match.

I got a lot of use out of mine. They were great in camp as it got colder and when combined with a base layer were pretty warming. They felt like just very lightweight pants, no clinging sensation.

I don't recall using them for hiking except for one very cold morning in the Smokies. Then, they were off within the first hour.

Obviously, don't go bushwacking with them.
