Comments about Kokatat Swift Dry Pants:
I bought these for my boyfriend. He loves them (and me even more for getting him rafting gear for his birthday). We ordered a large which should have fit according to the sizing guide and the recommendation of the phone sales person but they were way too tight in the legs. The extra large is a better fit but the thighs still seem a little narrow. Its hard to take a high step up. Otherwise they are super. The fabric is quiet and the design is simple without unnecessary stitching or doodads. He loves the pocket.

Comments about Kokatat Swift Dry Pants:
I bought these as a a gift for my boyfriend and he absolutely loves them and me all the more for getting him a rafting related birthday present. I ordered the large on the advice of the sales associate but we had to return for XL. He's 6'1" and about 190 with skinny legs. They still seem a little narrow in the top/inner thighs/ crotch. They seem to be a little motion restricting... stepping sideways or stepping very high. That said the fabric is great and he likes that they have a convenient pocket and not a lot of stiching or extra pockets or bulk

Comments about Kokatat Swift Dry Pants:
Used these while SUP in less than hospitable conditions. They fit extremely well and are very comfortable. Though I have only had them for a short time, I will definitely buy them again (if it ain't broke......).
Very pleased with this purchase and highly recommended.

Good drypants, I uses a lot of Kokatat products over the years, Material is lightweight, probably not the best for expedition type portages and bushwhacks, might rip. bring along the duct tape! LOL!

Seven day white water rafting trip on Colorado River,pants were not waterproof . Spent a lot of time wet from waist down. Splash from rapids went right thru fabric. Switched off to Lands End rain pants they worked better.

Q:
Are there booties that would work with these pants?Asked on 12/4/2012 by Terry1 answer
A:
Most neoprene wetshoes will work fine with these dry pants. Ones with a higher top will protect the ankle gaskets and add warmth to that area.Answered on 12/5/2012 by Clyde from NRS
