Why We Like The Outdoor Research Cirque III Pant
The Outdoor Research Cirque III Pant matches the energy of technical summits. The tough yet breathable fabrication resists tears and abrasions against rock and ice while also resisting winds and moisture to prevent our bones from getting chilled by the alpine's cruel conditions. As we climb, the movement-mirroring stretch and articulated knees ensure it will be only our own mobility that holds us back. And for added peace of mind on our journey, we keep our beacon safely clipped and zipped inside the thigh pocket.

Come in Lengths!!
These pants are amazing, it’s hard to find a company that makes a short length and they’re actually cheap compared to Black Diamond and Arc’teryx

Fit Perfect
I was skeptical of the "Tall" size. I was wrong. 6'7 and the LT fit perfect. So comfortable on the up that I immediately bought another pair. Much more comfortable than my Arcteryx Gamma TL pants and perfect length for tall guys. LOVE the zipper on the sides to help slide over my Scarpa's. Could not be happier

Excellent choice
Great softshell pant with plenty of flexibility. I wore these climbing my first glacier peak and they were fantastic.

Best ski touring pant I’ve used hands down. 95% of the time I wear them, and 95% of the time I wear a hard shell pant, I wish I had worn these instead. Very good

Quiver of one alpine pants
From Ice climbing, to skiing, to mountaineering, the OR Cirque 3 pants have been my partner in crime for all outdoor activities this past winter. They are super durable, highly water and weather resistant, and have kept me comfortably warm when paired with ski bottoms. These pants are highly featured, with loops 5 zippered pockets, zippered cuffs, a built in belt, suspender connection points, and a frontal gear loop (which I typically use to clip spare gloves when hiking). I think my only wish for these pants would be to include 1-2 gear loops on the sides of the pants, since I sometimes like clipping my water bottle and/or a knife to my waist when hiking.

Outdoor Research Cirque III
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- Large
I’ve only had these pants out a few times in winter activities. Fabric seams tough and stretchy with no snags or abrasions so far. Pockets, zippers, and stitching are all good. I like the fit. I’m 5’11” 210 pounds and the large fits me well. Waist is a touch large but I didn’t want to go down a size if I wear heavier base layers.

Amazing mountaineering softshell pants
I bought this to use as a double weave softshell for alpine mountaineering and it's been perfect. It works as advertised and it's hard to find any fault with it. It's flexible and breathes well so you don't get sweaty with it on. It's sufficiently and modestly wind resistant and water resistant. Light snowfall and sitting on snow didn't soak through and it held up fine against heavy winds (enough so that I didn't feel a need for a hardshell on top) It's pretty durable and has taken accidental impalements with a crampon without falling apart, likewise for catching it with an ice axe. It's marketed as 3-season pants but I took it up Mt Fuji for a winter summit and it performed great. Great all around.
