Women's Sightseer Knit Cargo Pants

Pants

The verdict

A comfortable option for someone wanting the cargo look with knit-fabric ease, not for anyone expecting rugged cargo durability.

Fit

Knit fabric suggests a stretchy, jogger-adjacent fit rather than structured cargo pants; likely true to size with a relaxed, comfortable feel.

Quality

Knit cargo pants trade some durability for comfort and stretch, consistent with the brand's casual, athleisure-adjacent offerings rather than its technical outdoor line.

Price check

Mid-tier pricing for the category; reasonable if comfort and styling matter more than genuine cargo-pant toughness.

Best for

Someone who likes the cargo silhouette but wants soft, stretchy comfort for everyday wear.

Care

Machine wash cold and tumble dry low to keep the knit from stretching out of shape.

What owners report about Eddie Bauer pants

Long-term testers report Eddie Bauer's Guide Pro-style pants hold up well: one reviewer logged over 50 days of wear across two pairs with no pilling, snags, or tears despite bushwhacking and garage work, and called the 94% nylon/6% spandex fabric accurate in fit with a well-placed rise across 26 size options. The DWR water-resistant finish wears off quickly and needs reapplying. Forum users warn the line isn't consistent across models: the cheaper Rainier pant runs a looser fit with roughly a 2-inch difference in waist sizing versus the Guide Pro at the same labeled size, plus lower quality.

Strengths
Owners who put heavy trail and work use on the pants report the nylon/spandex fabric resists pilling, snags, and tears even after 50+ days of wear.
Watch out for
The water-resistant DWR coating wears off quickly and needs reapplying, and quality isn't consistent across the line — the cheaper Rainier style runs looser and lower quality than the Guide Pro at the same size.
Sizing
Sizing runs accurate with a well-placed rise across a wide 26-option range, but expect roughly a 2-inch difference in waist fit between the Rainier and Guide Pro pants at the same labeled size.
