        Comments about The North Face Waterproof Breathable Venture Pants - Men's - Short 30" Inseam:

        Needed pants for two things - walking the dogs and watching my sons Lax games in the rain. While dog walking isn't overly strenuous they must be pretty breatable because they were very comfortable - no claminess at all from walk. Definitely waterproof and windproof. Not as noisy as I expected when walking. Fit is very consistent with other pants of same size - but more "adult" sizing vs "young men" sizing.

                  This brand is always great, in my experience. Too bad these were too short, there were none to be had in the next length.

                    Great pack pant for adverse conditions. Looks good enough to wear around town as well. I would wear these more often if they were not so loud (swish-swish-swish) when I walk.

                      this was the only pair of rainpants I could find that had a (shorter) 30" inseam. I am 5'
                      8". this was also the only pair I found to have actual zippered pockets and not just pass-throughs, which allowed rain to penetrate on other name brands.

                      Comments about The North Face Waterproof Breathable Venture Pants - Men's - Short 30" Inseam:

                      My gf got me these pants for Christmas to take on trips to Costa Rica and England in the coming year. The pants fit a little small and long, so I ended up exchanging a large regular length for the extra large short length; I wanted extra room for layers underneath. I think the new ones will be great for throwing on as a top layer in damp or cool conditions. The pants don't breathe super well, but I've yet to find a dependable pair of waterproof pants that aren't do. The best part about these pants is that they are super light weight and easily fold up into almost nothing in your pack. Overall, I am very satisfied with this product and will be using them for years.

                            They are waterproof but they are also made of nylon so thorns would most likely catch and pull and or tear the fabric. I would not recommend them for thorny conditions.

                            The North Face black is a newer color(2011) and it is a bit richer, more vivid color black than the regular black.

                            No these are a hiking shell pant so they are not designed with articulated knees like a rain shell for biking. You may want to look at the Shower pass rain pants.

                          Hello, Are these pants meant to be worn OVER other pants, or are they warm enough to wear alone in cold and rain?

                            In a cooler but not cold rain you could wear these by themselves. You can also use them has a wind pant in cooler weather. As for a rain pant you can use them over clothing as well.

                            There are zippers on the leg that will allow you to put these pants over boots. The zipper goes up to the knee not all the way up the size.
