Which is better for hiking?

The Six Pocket Congo Pants. The pre-washed lightweight cotton, high rise and six pockets suit movement and gear carry. The Xavier is heavier cotton with a taper that some find restrictive on long walks.

The Xavier. Its 100% cotton build is heavier and it has a large base of owner ratings reporting durability. The Congo's lightweight pigment-dyed cotton is comfortable but fades and wears sooner.

Is the Congo worth stepping up to over the Xavier?

Only if you want a women's high-rise cut. The Congo's advantages are the rise, the six-pocket layout and the pre-washed fabric. The Xavier wins on color range and fit consistency.

How does the fit compare?

The Xavier is loose through the hip and thigh with a taper from the knee down. The Congo is generously cut and straight through the leg with a high rise. Neither has stretch.

Do both have real cargo pockets?

Yes. The Xavier has side cargo pockets plus front and back pockets. The Congo has two flap-covered front pockets, two back pockets and two side-entry pockets.

Which is easier to care for?

The Xavier. It is machine washable to 40°C, tumble dryable to 60°C and ironable to 200°C. The Congo is machine wash only, and its pigment dye fades over time.
