These are so highly regarded in the onebag / herbag traveller community that these were high on my list to buy. They're quick-drying, UV resistant and really lightweight, whilst being able to wear them with just about anything. I bought the 'coal' version on PrAna's own website (which was on sale but ended up paying ~£90 with fees and taxes). A bit of a risk not knowing what size I would definitely be (a challenge for petite travellers too). I found this on Amazon to my surprise but never could get my size. But keep watching the item you want, you might get it... :)
I was so happy with the coal version and used them for work as well (too often to be honest), but what I really wanted was a darker version as it was not 'true black'. So PrAna announced a black version which in the Amazon images looks to be 'true black'. Well I bought them...! In my image, the left is coal and the right is black. Yep... they're the SAME. There might be the teeniest tinyest twinge of difference... but I cannot see it at all (and others can't either).
Anyway sizing! So I am normally a UK size 6 / EU 34 / US 2 but I went with Size 0 Short. Size 0 is actually too big on the waist still (I hear that other colours don't have this issue?). As for the short inseam, I am 155cm tall, and the short inseam is perfect (would be fine if you were an inch taller or so too).

Comfy Water Resistant Pants
Reviewed in the United States on 26 May 2019
So I bought these and the Brenna at the same time to decide which I'd prefer for an upcoming trip. I've uploaded a side by side of both those styles for you to compare.Reviewed in the United States on 26 May 2019
These pants are made from a comfortable fabric that has water resistant properties. They are a nice slim fit all the way down the leg and have a decent amount of stretch. I did decide to keep the Brenna over these just for style purposes, but I had to ask a lot of people for their opinions because it was a close call.
I took one star off because I personally prefer a higher rise and these are a solid mid-rise (as stated in the description).
For sizing references: I am 5'7" and 140 pounds. I wear a size 6 or 8 (depending on the amount of stretch) in Old Navy Rockstars and a 28 or 29 (again, depending on the amount of elastane in the fabric content) in Madewell skinnies. I purchased these in both a 6 and an 8. Both were wearable, but the 8's were definitely more comfortable and the ones I ended up keeping in the Brenna style.
