Renegade™ Recon Pant
Water-resistant, quick-dry trail pants with a tapered fit and elastic waistband. Features six pockets, including a zippered security pocket ideal for travel.
I've been wearing mostly nothing but KUHL pants for the last several years - they're well made, durable, fairly priced, and fit me perfectly. The Renegade Rock have been my go-to and I was psyched to see the Renegade Recon for all the features I loved on the Rock (minus the cuff cinches, which I rarely used) with the addition of a larger zippered front pocket instead of the smaller ventilation pockets on the thighs. What makes these a little less than perfect for me is the lack of a zippered rear right pocket, which seems a little odd since these are specifically geared towards being a travel/hiking hybrid pant, and a zippered wallet pocket (which the Rock has) seems like it'd be a natural feature. The back pockets on the Rock seem a little shallower than the ones on the Renegade as well. Still a great pair of pants - hope Kuhl adds a zippered back pocket to future design to make them even better.

Somewhat stretchy pants time!
A little pricey, but great fit for the average waist band in the US at the size. Stretchy waist makes for a great fit for a durable pant!

Great Pant
Another great pant. I wear this pant 2-3 times a week. Almost as good as the resistor chino. I will get a second pair of this pant.

Two years, indestructible. Still look great.
Bought for international travel. Love the "passport" pocket. They became my hiking, weekly casual CA office, everyday not jeans pants. Bought other colors. Recently rode motorcycles for 10 days internationally, crashed, camped, rolled around in the dirt, bled, etc. Washed them when I got home and wore them back to work unscathed. Crazy work. T...

A Superb Pant
The pants are just perfect. Fit well, excellent light weight but sturdy material, great taper, great colors, love all the pockets! If they made a fleece lined version I’d love those too!

Quality meets Comfort!
These are tough, elegant, and comfortable pants. The fit is the first time I’ve had a pair of pants like these fit comfortably at the waist without appearing too big in the rear.

Never had a bad product from KUHL.
As has been my experience for several years, the fit is perfect, the quality is impeccable, and the comfort is excellent. Highly recommend.

Wanted a second pair
I found a pair of these on sale at REI and loved them so much I ordered a second pair online. This is an amazing everyday and outdoor pant. The fabric is tough and durable, but it still has enough stretch to let you move freely on a hike or outdoors, and they look clean and nice enough to wear to the office or out to dinner. They handle light ...

The Perfect Fit
I love jeans, however Kuhl gives me an option that's just as comfortable and the fit is amazing. I love all the pockets and the fit is right in.
