Going to buy a pair because had enough of snagging the traditional pants and always coming down my butt because of the constant pack friction...very annoying!

TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

But only available in men's fittings, 'cause women don't do these sorts of things, do we?

They look decidedly hipster-ish.
I recently bought the Macpac Hiking Tight Pants when they had a big sale. Absolutely love them although they wouldn't stand up to any bush bashing. They're my fave pants at the moment.
Nice look MD!!

Quite revealing in the wedding tackle department. Guess you could always carry a spare pair of socks

Funny how they don't do women's sizing for men's clothing... Just like they don't do men's sizing in the women's version - https://www.fjallraven.com/abisko-trekking-tights-w

Ugh—! Those pants are visually uck by way of design and supposed aesthetics. What else do they want on the patchwork bum-side, an archery target!?
I wear my ever reliable black Jaggard MTB pants: zippered ankles, two thigh pockets, coin pocket at the rear, drawstring front.

I should have clarified. My comment was about the RABs. Far as I can see, there isn't a women's version.
