Cracking pair of trousers and an excellent fit great quality and had them put to the test on Sunday walk / downpour . Excellent quality and look good . I'm 6'4" and 38 waist and got the xl long which fit me perfectly . Also a great price for my size. Well pckakged and arrived prior to due date .

Long / Medium fits perfectly for 34" waist and 34" inside leg. Seems to be good quality. Not used much yet but has already proven to be completely waterproof.

Was really pleased with these, good expected fit, zips at ankles to put on over boots. Good quality and look

Excellent

Ideal for walking the dogs. Very good product

Perfect

Returned these. We but some for my mother in law for Christmas (Berghaus) - I reviewed earlier in the year. My husband wanted some so ordered these - thinking that with them being North Face they would be great quality. These were not lined and felt very plastic - also short in the leg he's about 5'9 and the large were large around the waist and short leg. Sent back and Berghaus brand ordered. Not recommended.

A little too large, not tried in walking situation yet!

Great product. But had to send back. The legs are cut straight so that means if your thighs are muscular or slightly on the bigger side these will not work or be very snug. Ordered a different brand that had wider thigh area.

Don’t fit well at all. Very baggy and very long even though I ordered the smallest size available.

The North Face Men’s Venture 2 Half-Zip DWR Hiking Pants are just what I needed for hiking! High quality construction, light weight, and comfortable. Good looking. Love them!

Ski patrollers have to show up for their shifts, no matter what the weather. I've been looking for a rain gear solution for many years, using everything from Gloucester fisherman's duds to ponchos to plastic bags. After extensively reading reviews, I decided to buy The North Face Venture 2 Jacket and Rain Pants.Yesterday was the first chance that I had to put this combo together. I had a 9-hour shift in continuous rain (1.15" during that period). Temps about 35degF.I donned the gear in the locker room and headed out to the lifts to start the day in downpour conditions. While water was beading up on the surface and shedding nicely, I wasn't sure if it was still seeping through. About 3 hours in, I went inside of the top house and took off the jacket and pants. My patrol parka, worn underneath, was only the slightest bit damp, and only at the outermost surface (warm and dry within). Same for the pants - my regular Gore-tex bibs were just a bit damp on the outer surface (they are old bibs and haven't had a DWR treatment in a long time). Anyway, 6 hours of rain later, and in the locker room at the end of the day, the gear underneath the Venture 2 jacket and pants were in the same condition - lightly damp on the surface and dry within. I could feel a light dampness to the interior of the Venture jacket and pants, but clearly they were not letting water through in any significant way. Note also that I had a backpack on all day and nothing came through where the straps wear against the jacket. I don't think that the interior moisture came from inside (i.e., sweat condensate); I vented the gear.So, this system works. Note that I had my standard ski gear on underneath. If you are using this for rain protection in non-winter conditions, I would advise the use of an insulation layer as it does get a tad moist on the inner surface, and that would not be comfortable, say, with only a cotton tee shirt on or with just shorts. You're going to feel moisture and likely feel cold, but you won't get soaked. I'd say you could use these with jeans/hiking pants and a thin Merino summer top and do quite well in wet and warm conditions.YMMV, but this system worked for me in serious rain conditions.Sizing... 5'-9" and 150# with full winter gear including a ski patrol parka ... size medium worked well.

These were a God's send! They were perfect, slightly stretchy at the waist, but fit like a charm every where else. I purchased them to travel in Scotland where I needed something wash and wear in case of lots of rain, and they did not disappoint. They were light, and yet held warmth. (Because I'm always cold, so I'd notice it if they felt too cool). I enjoyed them so much that I had to control myself after arriving home, making them my "go to" pants. LOL
