Pros

Trustworthy, well-built gear with an excellent Warranty from Patagonia
Comfortable design and warm from March-October (Northern Hemisphere)
Great articulation for scrambling plus extra resilient material around the knees and ankles for tackling rough terrain
Remarkable value for money (they’re expensive but durable)

Cons

Suspender system takes from getting used to, and depending on your size the buckles can end up out of sight by your shoulders
Booties a little hard to get on/off, but not a problem once you are used to them
