Are these cargo pants actually waterproof, or just water-repellent?
They're water-repellent rather than fully waterproof — the fabric uses a PFC-free DWR (durable water repellent) treatment that makes water bead up and roll off the surface instead of soaking in, which helps in light rain or damp conditions, but they're not built to handle sustained heavy rainfall the way true waterproof cargo pants would be.
How stretchy are they, and will they restrict movement when I bend or crouch?
The fabric is a 92% nylon, 8% spandex blend, so there's real stretch built in, and the knees specifically use a 3D splicing design that adds extra room at the joint — meant to prevent that tight, restrictive feeling you get from a lot of women's stretch cargo pants when you crouch or climb.
How many pockets does it actually have, and are they secure for hiking or travel?
There are two invisible zipper side pockets plus an additional zipper pocket on the thigh, so you get three zip-closed storage points total — useful if you want your phone or cards to stay put rather than bounce around in an open pocket.
Is the waist adjustable, or do I need to be precise about sizing?
There's an adjustable belt built into the waist for a more customized, secure fit, though it's still worth checking the size chart on the product page (available in S, M, L) since the adjustable belt fine-tunes fit rather than replacing the need for a correct base size.
What colors does this pant come in?
It's available in three colors — Dusk Grey, Ink Black, and Creek Teal — all made from the same lightweight cargo pants for women construction, so the fit and features stay consistent across colorways.
