Eddie Bauer women's pants

Thanks to a recommendation on this forum years ago, I have quite a wardrobe of mostly-nylon pants that I take with me every time I go out of town.

I have a pair of the Eddie Bauer polar fleece-lined pants that have helped keep me warm while sitting in ice rinks in January, walking outdoors in Washington DC throughout the winter, and on a Feb-Mar trip to Rome in 2023. I am extraordinarily cold-natured and relatively tolerant of being a bit warm, so I often wear merino long johns underneath the pants. The outer fabric (86% nylon, 14% spandex) does a pretty good job of shedding rain. (The pants don't claim to be fully waterproof, and they are not.) Most pants made of mostly-nylon fabric (not just from Eddie Bauer) tend to have sort of sporty-looking stitching. I ordered them in black, which makes the stitching considerably less obvious than on lighter-colored pants. The fabric seems to be hard-wearing. The lined pants definitely take longer to dry than otherwise-similar but unlined nylon pants. I think these are exactly the pants I own: https://www.eddiebauer.com/p/23151036/women's-2.0-polar-fleece-lined-pants?sp=1&color=Black. That's a zipper pull you can see dangling in the picture; these are sporty pants.

I also have the Rainier pants. These are of unlined 95% nylon fabric. The stitching is a bit less sporty than on the fleece-lined pants. Useful rain-shedding capability. https://www.eddiebauer.com/p/D6161007/women's-rainier-pants?sp=1&color=Pumice

The Rainier pants are now available in a lined version. I don't have these. I see some reviewers have found them too snug:

I considered but rejected the Eddie Bauer Guide Pro (lined) pants because I didn't like the visible logo on the leg. I'm not about to change clothes before dinner when I'm traveling in Europe, so I go for the least "I've been hiking" clothing I can find that matches my climate needs and is easy care. https://www.eddiebauer.com/p/23151062/women's-guide-pro-pants?sp=1&color=Blue%20Spruce

Multiple other companies sell unlined pants of 95+% nylon fabric, roughly equivalent to the Eddie Bauer Rainiers. PrAna was a bit more expensive when I made my initial purchases a few years ago. Its fabric seems just a bit heavier than the unlined pants from Eddie Bauer (either a good thing or a bad thing, depending on the climate you're traveling to). I think PrAna's sizing is a bit more generous than Eddie Bauer's.

Columbia's 96%-97% nylon pants are noticeably thinner than Eddie Bauer's and less expensive--not too thin, just not intended for casual walking in chilly weather, I guess. They dry somewhat faster than the unlined pants from Eddie Bauer and PrAna. The Columbia pants I have (purchased a few years ago) are also a bit smaller. The size difference between Columbia and prAna was obvious at the time of my first purchase. The Eddie Bauer pants I bought at about the same time fall in the middle.

I have two pair of Eddie Bauer capris for travel and really like them and the quality. I have both the Guide Pro and the Rainier. The description for the fit is the same for both but I think they are different and for me the Rainier fit is more comfortable. I assume the longer pants in the styles would have a similar fit to the capris, just longer legs. Most of my longer pants have been Athleta and although more expensive have lasted a long time. I especially like their Venice joggers for cooler weather. While not heavy they are not lightweight like the Trekkie which has been great for warmer travels.

I regularly wear the Guide Pro pants and when it is windy, wet, and cold (under 40 for me) I wear the lined ones. Lined are very warm indoors, so that might be a factor for you. I have also worn tights under the Guide Pro pants which help a lot. I do not let the logo on the leg stop me from wearing them for city activities but we do not do fancy much. The pants pack and wash well. Very happy with them overall.

I also like the Prana Halle pants. More expensive but not as bad as Fjallraven. A little more of a casual pant and less outdoorsy looking.

I bought on recommendation here one of the Eddie Bauer pants but returned them. They were fuller in the hips than I like.

I bought before last trip two pairs of Athleta pants. I absolutely love them. They are comfortable but don’t hang like comfort pants. They are also rain repellent as I found out in Portugal last month. It rained pretty hard one day and my rain coat is not long. They weren’t cheap but I think there is a sale going on right now. Mine are both ankle length which look good with sneakers. The black ones I have could be dressed up with flats or sandals.

They also have stores to try on the clothes which I appreciate.

Looks like Athleta is having a pretty great sale. I've never ordered from them before.
@Beth, what style do you like? How do you find the sizing?
