It's not just specialty stores like REI or Merrell that carry good outdoor gear—Amazon has a ton of gems if you know where to look. The site regularly has sales on affordable trekking poles (normally uber expensive), sun-proof shirts, and even portable power stations, but nothing comes close to the deal on this pair of Eddie Bauer hiking pants, which are nearly 60% off.

Normally $70, the Eddie Bauer Rainier Hiking Pants are selling for as low as $30, which is up to 56% off. They’ve collectively earned over 425 five-star ratings, with shoppers saying they have “awesome moisture wicking” capabilities and are “comfortable, durable, and nice looking.” They're available in five colors, including black, tan, and gray, and come in even-numbered waist sizes from 30 to 40 and 30-, 32-, and 34-inch inseams. The price ultimately comes down to your choice of color and size, but most are marked under $40

The 94% nylon, 6% spandex blend is Bluesign-certified fabric, a marker of “safe and sustainable textile production.” It’s also the material you’d choose for pants that need to do more than look nice (which, to be clear, they certainly do). Coated in a durable water-repellant finish, they also offer UPF 50+ sun protection, so you’re covered no matter the weather. With articulated knees and a slightly loose fit, they won’t slow you down on the trail (or wherever you wear them), but they avoid the overly baggy look of many hiking pants so you can wear them around town without looking like you just got off the trail.

One reviewer wrote that they wore these “in some cold northeastern weather as utility pants, and they worked great” with an additional layer underneath. They also called these pants “super comfortable” and “perfect for hiking," thanks in part to the zippered pocket that keeps valuables secure no matter how you need to contort yourself on the trail.

“I own five pairs of these pants,” wrote another particularly enthusiastic reviewer who also called them an “excellent value,” particularly when they’re on sale. “Superbly comfortable and durable,” he continued, “I also like the stretch, which comes in handy walking, climbing, or bending over.”

For prices this low, the question isn’t whether to pick up some Eddie Bauer Rainier Pants but how many pairs to buy. Just make sure to get yours soon—with some sizes and color combinations already sold out, they likely won't stick around forever.
