View QC PhotosQuick verdict
An Asian-fit, short-inseam take on the Gamma Pant shape, offered in sizes 30–36 with roughly 5 cm of waist and hem adjustment. Published Gamma Pant reviews support the fabric's abrasion resistance and standard-length sizing, but they describe the Arc'teryx product generally, not this listing. Check the listed measurements against your own before ordering.

Fit notes
One reviewer who normally wears 32x32 found the size 32 dialed in — balanced between slim and regular. Another who wears 30x32 found a small a bit tight, though the length was right. The listing gives waist, hip, inseam, and total length per size, with about 5 cm of waist and hem adjustment.
Buy if
You want a short-inseam, four-way-stretch pant for cooler-weather hiking, scrambling, or shoulder-season commuting, and you are willing to match the listed waist, hip, and inseam numbers to your own measurements first.
Skip if
You need a hot-weather pant — reviewers put the Gamma Pant among the too-warm options for most summer hiking — or you want fit confirmed without doing the measurement comparison yourself.

Buying FAQ
Close to standard, per one reviewer who normally wears 32x32 and found the 32 dialed in. Another who wears 30x32 found a small tight, so compare the listed waist and hip figures rather than your usual tag size.
Reviewers rate the Gamma Pant too warm for most summer hiking. The listing's "wearable year-round" line is the seller's description, not an independently tested claim.
Sizes 30, 32, 34, 36, listed as S–XL, each with waist, hip, inseam, and total length. The waist adjusts about 5 cm and the hem drawcord about 5 cm.
The mesh pocket liners, which reviewers say snag and tear more easily than solid fabric.
No. The available claims cover the Arc'teryx Gamma Pant generally, not this seller's stock. Before ordering, confirm measured waist, hip, and inseam and ask about the return policy.
Evidence
After more than a month of daily wear, the Gamma Pant showed no signs of wear in high-stress areas like the seat, knees, and ankles, and its abrasion resistance was rated high.
SourceThe cuffs are reinforced with a laminated seam over the hemline and hold up to the constant abrasion of walking along wet, gritty trails.
SourceA reviewer reports the fabric withstood months of rock climbing and scrambling with no tears, despite initial doubts about its toughness.
SourceThe mesh pocket liners are flagged as the pant's main weak point, being more prone to snags and tears than solid fabric.
SourceThe Gamma Pant is praised for premium materials and construction and a quiet, non-swishing fabric, but reviewers consider it expensive and too warm for most summer hiking.
SourceReviewers report the Gamma Pant runs true to standard pants sizing — a tester who normally wears 32x32 found the size 32 Regular 'dialed in,' with a fit balanced between slim and regular rather than boxy.
SourceSome buyers size up because Arc'teryx pants fit differently from standard pant sizing; one user who normally wears 30x32 found their small Gamma pants felt a bit tight, though the length was just right.
