Customer Service

I have no issues with the product itself—the pants are great. However, my rating reflects the poor communication I experienced with Seadon. I placed my order for XL pants at the end of May and requested an exchange for a larger size, 2XL. When the exchange arrived, it was the same size as my original order (XL). I had to request a second exchange for the correct size. Throughout this process, communication was spotty at best; several emails went unanswered, and the responses I did receive took a long time. After almost two weeks of them receiving my return and a little over two months of emails and exchange processing, I finally received the correct size. While I'm satisfied with the product, the customer service experience felt subpar.

Lightweight and breathability

The key interesting points are their lightweight, nice stretch and breathability. The pants are also water-resistant and quick-drying. I can wear them for over a week before washing them.

The only concerns are the durability and unsure whether they could withstand the twigs and spiky things if you're going into the forested areas.
