i bought some grenade fatigue project pant off ebay at the beginning of the season (i know stupid but they were inexpensive).  they are so f-ing horrible.  the seams have just ripped apart everywhere.  first i lost my wallet because the backpocket ripped open.  then a pant leg seam tore so i ducted tapped it.  Now last night the whole ass seam ripped open.  they suck
anyone else have bad expirences like this with outerware.

I have those pants and they're on their second season.  Probably have to trash them after this one but for $90 whatever.  They aren't very warm.

agree. I had a choice to get either Salomon or Orage pants for 99.95, went with Salomon because I liked the fit a little better, but the seam of the crotch is starting to come undone and there is a small hoel in the seam on one pocket-don't think i would be having any problems with the Orage now.
