KÜHL is an outdoor apparel brand that strives to make the best outdoor clothing for adventurers, travelers, and outdoor enthusiasts. They reached out to me to see if I’d like to try a pair of their women’s travel pants, and I said yes! I’d been wanting a new pair of pants to hike it, so it was perfect timing. KÜHL also asked me to write a blog to review the pants, so that’s what you’re reading. I tried their Resistor Air Joggers in the color Sage and size 2. Here are my honest thoughts!

These pants are made with really durable fabric that feels like it will withstand all kinds of outdoor activity for years to come. The ankles cinch to create the jogger style, which I love. The pants are a little more low-rise than I usually prefer, but the waist includes a tie, which helps them fit better. I was worried about the waist being too low rise, but the pants were comfortable for an 8-mile hike in Colorado, so I’ll take that as a win.

As an elopement photographer, many of my elopements require some level of hiking or at least being outdoors. For hiking or colder-weather elopements in the mountains, I’ll often wear hiking pants, so it’s really important to me that I find pants that are comfortable, durable, protective, and look good at the same time. These pants fit the bill, and I’ll likely be wearing them for many more future hikes and elopements!

I wore these pants on an 8-mile hike in Lyons, Colorado called the Coulson Gulch trail. They were perfect for a spring hike. Here are a few photos from that day so you can see these pants in the wild. All of the photos from this trail are by Alle May Photo!

And just for fun, here are a few more photos of me wearing the pants.
