Needed a pair of waterproof pants for afternoon walks because it rains so much here. I'll have to addend this review as I just received the pants a couple of days ago.
On first inspection, they're an "excellent," well made product. They're not designed as everyday pants but look to be used as outerwear over jogging shorts, basketball shorts or regular jeans. They easily compact to a pint water bottle size for portability and come with their personal netted carrying/storage bag. And at 8.9oz (263g), make an excellent hiking/emergency companion.
A word to the wise, after going to the manufacture web site, yes, these do breath......water "vapor," not liquid sweat and they depend on there being a temperature difference; outside ambient temperature being lower than inside the pants temperature for the most effective venting of moisture vapor. Yes, these can be washed; cold water, mild detergent.
Go to the manufacture's web site. About fifty seconds into the webcast, the host speaks about the need for lower air temperature difference and how it affects the efficiency of moisture vapor venting,
The product is very well priced compared to that of "The North Face" or other popular outdoor brands. Interestingly enough, the "Red Ledge" product line is used by one of the crew highlighted on "Deadliest Catch." And short of going into the ocean itself, it don't get any wetter than what those guys deal with.
I took the pants out today for a one hour, afternoon, New Year's Day walk. It was 36F, snowy/rainy weather; no wind. I wore them over denim jeans. I walked through a wilderness area and residential mountain roads; 2,300'. At no time did I feel cold or wet. They passed with flying colors. I would neither hesitate to recommend these pants to another person, or hesitate to buy another pair or two for my personal outdoor comfort. For the price, these also make for an excellent addition to the emergency Winter car kit.
Hope the above helps.

You get what you pay for. It is cheap and affordable. It is not heavy duty raingear like the brand name expensive stuff, but it does the trick just the same. Waterproof! Not water resistant and breathable. Now go get it!

These pants worked pretty well on my trip to Alaska. It did rain but kept me dry. I got a Medium and I'm about 5'10". I would probably opt for the large if I needed another pair. Worked great and the price was reasonable. I liked the fact that it rolled up and fit in a little bag that was included. That way I could just snap them onto my backpack and grab them as needed.
