I've ordered 3 pairs of the pants as Christmas gifts. We haven't tried them yet, but they seem to be really good quality.
Took a month to receive order. Ordered an XL jacket as a gift, small fit. Will likely have to exchange for larger size.
I had to chase my order as had no despatch info. Item is an Xmas gift so not yet tried the item
Web site works ok but more than a month to receive delivery. Also easy return means that I have tonpay for it
I am not one to post reviews often. Of fact, this may be the first review I've posted in a long time. Simply put, these are some of the best all around outdoor pants I've worn in a long time. I am a waterfowl hunter, and these have become my go to pants for cold weather gear in and around the house and out in the field. Similar build quality to Sitka gear, if not a bit better. Insulated, water resistant, and great fit. Will frequently wear under my waders when out in the field. Great pants for working outside around the home or out on the farm in cold weather. Great fit and finish. Have ordered several pair and recommend them highly.
I'm 6'7" and usually can't find an inseam long enough for pants...Northbound Gear has an inseam that works for me. Thank you, Northbound Gear.
I thought I was ordering from a Canadian Company since the address was listed as BC. My pants had to go through customs and that took more then a month so I am assuming they got shipped from China. However despite the false front I do like the hiking pants.
Love my purchases! Thank you! Customer service is great also!
Just as described by the other buyers the women's pants I purchased are great fit and quality! It is also warm and comfortable can't wait until I can go snowshoeing in them. Happy with my purchase.
Easy to order, fits great, and lots of communication throughout the shipping process.
Product is fantastic quality that exceeded my expectations in both fit and style. Packaging was top drawer with an eco-friendly bag material made from plants. I would have given 5 stars in this review, but Canada Post tracking was nonexistent and took much longer than anticipated. Northbound Gear's products are also made in China according to my query.
After several messages with the manufacturer I had reported one last time that my pant order had NOT been received. Lo and behold they showed up today in time for Christmas. Close inspection of the product shows me that it is of top quality and I am satisfied that r this is a great Canadian pant. My Granddaughter who will receive these pants for Christmas will most likely love them as well. Yhank you for assisting in getting the pants to me.
Those pants are perfect to hike. They are very soft and flexible, hot and nice to wear. I recommend really this product:-)
Overall pretty good. May be worth doing a shipping timeline out of US/Canada to Europe as that was the longest period in the process without any sense of where goods were. Info email address doesn't seem to generate any response that's my only real negative.
I placed an order awhile back and have not received it. I have tried to call and email the business and no person has responded. Canada Post has not received any packages from the company.
Not impressed and I am sincerely hoping that this company is legitimate and that I didn't get screwed over!
I purchased a second pair of Adventure pants for my husband as he loved the first pair he bought himself. I bought myself a pair as well.
Nice and warm and fit nicely - stretchy so very comfortable.
I will probably get a summer pair too.
My husband is in love with your pants. They are warm and durable. Can't wait for him to try the summer ones.
Product too big waiting for response so I can return and get a smaller size. We have emailed them, left a couple of phone messages and still no response after a week.
Answer: So far the evidence is that it is a scam. Ask me in a year and maybe it will have arrived in time for next hiking trip.
Answer: China... apparently. Won't know for sure as not yet arrived.
Answer: Hi Elizabeth, I'm sorry for the delay. Upon checking, it shows that your order was shipped last October 14, however, there seems to be a delay with the delivery on the courier's end. They provided an update on the tracking information and I attached a link for your reference. https://www.canadapost-postescanada.ca/track-reperage/en#/details/1023038360005180 As much as I love to expedite the delivery, this situation is out of our control. No worries, I will reach out to the courier to see to it that the item will be delivered soon. Rest assured that your order will be delivered anytime soon.
