Backpacking Light's Thorofare Trekking Pant came in at 4.0 ounces. Anyone know of a pair that come in around the same weight? I'm looking for a light pair of pants to use primarily for town stops. Mike

Probably not a light as you are looking for, but I LOVE these and recommend them for comfort, durability, fast drying.

I sent my pair off to for InsectShield treatment and they are my main hiking pants.
John,
The Montbell pants are heavier than what I am looking for, but they look great for general hiking pants, so I will keep them in mind.
John Abela is pretty pumped about the Montbell Dynamo wind pants…he pretty much lives in them if you believe his blog. Even cut the legs off one pair to make shorts :) No pockets tho.
At 2.6 oz you aren't going to get much lighter, and you get a pair of wind pants to boot.
