What Is The Best Parkour Pants

There are different types of parkour pants. Choice of parkour pants probably will depend on the weather, season and your location. Below is the overview of main types of parkour pants and some of the ideas which parkour pants suit better to which situation.

Mainly, sweat pants, warm-ups and track "swish" pants are being used for parkour. Climbing pants are also good, since they allow you to move freely, and are durable, fit well, and don't get in your way. Gramicci, Prana stretch Zion pants (very good), North Face, and Arborwear are recommended. Dickies are also durable and offer free range of motion. Jeans are not recommended, as they are too stiff and do not allow enough freedom of movement.

Some people (including myself) like combat pants for several reasons:
1. Lightweight, they're made of a light, thin (yet surprisingly warm) material.
2. Dry, although they get wet easy, they dry in a matter of seconds. It may sound gross, but the best example i can think of is when I'm taking a leak. If I dribble, by the time I'm done washing my hands, the pants are already dry.
3. Durable, the material is very tough, and at the highest-impact points (knees, butt) the cloth is doubled.
4. Built-in ankle ties, for when you go upside down.
5. Practical, for everyday use that switches into high-energy use, there's really nothing better. They have giant pockets that hold just about anything, and are really comfy. Plus, they're army green, which goes with just about anything the average traceur would wear on a regular day.

Which type of pants to choose depends on your needs and taste. But I have one advice. Do not let pants' brand be more important in your choice than their practical characteristics, safety and comfort.
