prAna Men's Clothing

Frequently Asked Questions

• Which prAna pants are best for hiking, climbing, and yoga?

  For hiking and climbing, look to the Stretch Zion Pants or Zion Straight Fit Pants for durable nylon blends with articulated knees, gussets, and zip or stash pockets that handle abrasion and movement. For yoga and studio work, lightweight, highly stretchy pieces like the Kimble Leggings and Rogue Top prioritize mobility and breathability with flatter seams and moisture-wicking fabrics. Slope Shorts bridge both worlds for warm-weather hikes or post-session comfort with quick-dry fabric and UPF protection.
• How do Stretch Zion Pants compare to Broadfield Pants?

  Stretch Zion Pants are built on a 97% nylon/3% spandex stretch weave designed for technical durability, abrasion resistance, and longer hikes or climbs, while Broadfield Pants use a 93% nylon/7% Lycra blend that feels softer and offers more four-way stretch for everyday wear and approach climbs. Stretch Zion models tend to feature gussets, reinforced panels, and a more rugged trim fit, whereas Broadfield leans toward a roomier, more casual cut with a focus on mobility and comfort. Both often include quick-dry finishes, UPF 50+ options, and practical pockets.
• How should I size prAna men's pants and what fit options are available?

  prAna offers standard S–XXL sizing with multiple leg styles—slim, straight, tapered, relaxed, and jogger—so pick the cut that matches your activity and layering needs; straight/tapered fits work well for hiking, while relaxed or jogger fits suit casual and travel use. Pay attention to inseam and leg style in product details, and expect Stretch Zion fabrics to soften and relax slightly with wear for a more personalized fit over time. If you’re between sizes, choose based on intended use (layering vs. mobility) rather than vanity fit.
• Do prAna men's shirts and shorts offer sun protection and quick‑dry performance for water activities?

  Yes, many prAna tees, Rogue Tops, Crew T‑Shirts, and Slope Shorts are made from quick‑dry, moisture‑wicking synthetics and are offered in UPF 50+ ratings for sun protection. Look for explicit callouts like “quick‑dry,” “moisture‑wicking,” “UPF 50+,” or water‑repellent DWR treatments on product pages, plus design features such as vents, minimal seams, and zip pockets that aid comfort during SUP, beach days, and hot hikes.
