While not as well-known as The North Face or Patagonia, Prana has been cranking out great outdoorsy apparel that adventurers love. It’s the brand behind the Stretch Zion, one of our favorite pairs of pants for hiking, and right now, REI has a fantastic deal on another pair of the brand’s best-in-class bottoms: a stretchy but durable pair of trail joggers for nearly 30% off.

Prana Discovery Trail Joggers are just $67 right now, $28 less than the $95 sticker price. No reviews exist at REI, but we found some on Prana’s website, and all but one of the dozen rankings is five stars, with shoppers there saying they “fit perfectly” and are “extremely comfortable and reasonably breathable.” REI has them in sizes small through XXL in a solid dark brown color.

If you were to ask if they’re great exercise joggers or great hiking pants, the answer would be yes. That’s because the 87% recycled polyester and 13% elastane blended fabric has the moisture-wicking and stretchy properties necessary for both kinds of activities. There’s also an adjustable waistband drawcord for a secure fit and a zippered pocket for a secure carry.

“I bought these to wear in the Ecuadorian Amazon to keep bugs off of me and not be too hot,” wrote one particularly adventurous reviewer. “These are perfect for my needs—ankle fitted, light weight, color. Not the listed purpose, but I couldn’t find ‘Jungle pants for bug defense and looking good while covered in Amazonian mud.’”

Another reviewer shared that “these pants are extremely comfortable and quite breathable.” That makes them “great for hiking in warm weather.” They added that these pants “seem to be reasonably durable for how thin they are,” an important factor as one of the worst times and places to rip your pants is in the middle of a hike.

REI has listed this particular color of the Prana Discovery Trail Joggers as discontinued, so there’s not going to be a restock. That likely means that if you miss this deal, you miss these pants. To avert that tragedy, pick up a pair today.

Jack Black appeared on Jimmy Fallon’s The Tonight Show on March 31 to hype his new film, A Minecraft Movie. In the process of making a rather grand entrance, Black ended with a move he seemingly did not plan in advance. His pants fell down, but he made the most of the entertaining moment. 

Black’s entrance and wardrobe malfunction were highlighted on The Tonight Show’s Instagram page. The actor made his way from the back of the auditorium, through the audience, to Fallon’s desk while delivering an enthusiastic guitar solo. 

He stopped by the band’s spot on stage to jam for a second, and as he made his way to Fallon’s desk, eagle-eyed viewers could see that his pants were slipping down.

As Black arrived at Fallon’s desk, his pants fully fell to his ankles. The actor’s boxers were visible for a brief moment before he was able to recover from the wardrobe misfunction.

Black pulled his pants back up and continued his energetic entrance without missing a beat. He even did some additional rocker moves before sitting down to chat with Fallon. 

Fallon noted that Black brought “the heat” and lots of energy for his entrance. Black quipped, “I didn’t bring a belt. That’s what I didn’t bring.”

Fans of Black loved the moment. 

“He rocked his own pants off, that’s how hard Jables rocked,” one Instagram user declared.

“Best entrance ever,” raved another fan.

“Nothing better than a pants down hug from Jack Black, 😂” added someone else.

“The best entrance 👏🏻🫶🏻 100%, 💚❤️” read an additional comment.

Five Below is a beloved shopping spot for many Americans who like to find items that are usually priced under $5. The chain of specialty discount stores was founded in 2002 by Tom Vellios and David Schlessinger and is headquartered in Philadelphia. While the chain often appeals to tweens and teens, people of all ages can usually find something to like at the spot.

Now, Five Below has made a major announcement, and it should make regular shoppers happy. 

In a new report about the company’s 2024 earnings, Five Below dropped the news that they’ll open an impressive 150 new stores this year.

“We entered the holiday period with the goal of showcasing more newness with key trend-right, value product, while also improving our operational execution and in-store experience. We were very encouraged to see early positive results from our teams’ efforts and are excited to build on this in 2025 with [CEO Winnie Park] at the helm,” the company’s COO, Ken Bull, said.

It’s worth noting that the same report showed that Five Below had a rough holiday season, with the company’s comparable sales down by 3% year-over-year in the fourth quarter. But, the company did well enough to warrant opening the new shops. Five Below actually opened 22 new stores during the fourth quarter.

Five Below has yet to announce the locations for their new stories, but according to their official website, more than 30 stores have already opened in January 2025.

Don’t be surprised if you see a few items priced above $5 at the new stores. During the company’s latest earnings call, Park said the store plans to go back to its main focus at whole $1 to $5 price points and “raising the bar on adding value to our highly edited assortment of product above $5.”
