Most Versatile
outdoor-vitals-satu-product

The Satu Adventure and Outdoor Pants are multipurpose and versatile. Named from the Malaysian word for ‘one’, these pants are designed to be any wearer’s go-to pants. The modern cut makes them appropriate for a variety of activities including casual settings to more adventurous activities, like hiking.

Some of our favorite features of the Satu are their deep pockets, water resistant design, and durability. The material is thick which makes these pants high quality without compromising on breathability or stretch in the legs and hips. On top of that, the Satu features adjustable hems and waist to ensure the perfect fit.

The Satu are available in both men’s and women’s sizing. For men, these pants are available in waist 28 to 46 and length 28 – 36 sizing options. For women, the Satu are available in sizes 0 to 25 in short, regular, and tall length options. Though, many wearers suggest sizing up, as the waist does not provide any stretch. Color options include charcoal, olive green, and mud brown.

Adventure Pants for Any Occasion – Rain or Shine

With a modern fit, three color options, and built in odor resistance the Outdoor Vitals Satu Adventure pants allow you to seamlessly transition from trail to table. These pants were designed with a minimalist closet in mind, so that you can have one pair of pants that does it all.

Running to a meeting in the rain or at a creek crossing on a hike – never fear, the Satu has you covered. These pants are water and wind resistant. When coming into contact with water, it just beads right off the pants and if they do become wet, the material is quick drying.

Pockets, Pockets, and more Pockets

One of the first things to look for when purchasing any pair of pants is the pocket situation – this is especially true when searching for the perfect pair of outdoor pants. The Satu Adventure Pants feature pockets that are both large and deep.

In addition to deep front pockets, the Satu also feature secure back pockets and a zippered lay-flat cargo pocket. This allows wearers to carry tools or valuables without the worry of losing them.

Breathability and Movement

The Satu Adventure Pants are made from a stretch material that moves with you. The gusseted crotch provides extra comfort and movement that makes it easy to bend down, climb, and stretch while outdoors. While the pants provide stretch in the legs and hips, the waistband does not have stretch to it, which can provide a more secure fit. However, because of this, it is best to size up.

The Satu also have hidden zipper side vents that allow your legs to breathe when needed. The vents feature a mesh that extends from the mid-thigh to the upper hip. When not in use, the zipper is completely unnoticeable.

Adjustability for a Better Fit

To ensure a better fit, the Satu feature an adjustable waist with a built in belt. This allows wearers to easily tighten or loosen the waist of the pants without the hassle of remembering to wear a belt. However, the Satu also has belt loops, so if you have a favorite belt, then you can wear it for style.

The hidden adjustable hems of the Satu Adventure pants lets you easily tighten the hem of the pants to create a crop or tighten the hems around boots to keep dust out.

The Satu also have hidden adjustable hems that can be tightened with an internal bungee cord. This feature allows these pants to seal out dust on the trail and enables wearers to crop the pants if needed. In addition to the adjustable hem, the Satu also has lace clips to keep the pants in place and secure around your shoes or boots.

Price/Quality Ratio:

The Satu Adventure Pants are at the high end of price for outdoor pants. However, they are great quality and provide a nice, flattering fit. The Satu are extremely durable and can withstand the wear and tear that typically occurs during outdoor adventures. Also, their versatility as both an everyday and outdoor pant means that you will get a lot of wear from the Satu and make them appropriate pants for almost any occasion.

Do we recommend them?

Yes! The Outdoor Vitals Satu Adventure Pants are comfortable, durable, and stylish. Available in both men and women sizing, these pants offer everything you could want from outdoor pants including: large pockets, adjustability, stretch, and water and odor resistance.
