Men's Silver Ridge Convertible Pants

I'm a long distance thru- hiker. My weight fluctuates as I lose 20 pounds during the months on the trail and slowly gain it back before starting in these pants again. Sewn on buttons did not cut it for me. Even though mine pop when I gain weight during my off months, I prefer knowing that I have a waist button that is reliable. These deliver. Overall these pants are better constructed than the others that I have tried, and they are equally light.. Another key feature is that there is a zippered pocket on the left leg. I need to know that there is one zippered pocket. If you have extremely muscled thighs, these could be tight, but for me they work and I have average to big thighs- 5'10' 200lb as I set out. I. order the 34 waist The belt is cheap but it is fine for me and light weight. But the waist does seem to have a little give of it's own but not much. What tends to happen for me is that they are on tight side at the waist and even the thighs starting out, but after a few weeks on the trail the fit is perfect and by the second or third month, the belt is actually being used as an aide to keep them tight Bottom line they are true to size in my case..The possible drawback in construction for some, may be that there is no velcro around the ankle. In other words, you will need to take off your hiking boots while converting them into shorts or vice-versa. This is minor for me. Breaks are usually welcomed. I also like to wear them a lot when I'm not hiking. These pants are good for everyday use as well. They look good too esp. the dark colors. Highly recommended.

I own 2 pairs of these so far and will probably order another. I really love these pants for my hiking and camping trips. I wear them all the time, and they are comfortable and well made. the convertible bottoms zip on and off pretty easy, and I like the length of shorts when zipped off. They dry fast, and keep me more comfortable in warm weather. I have not had any issues with seams tearing even during very active wear.The only drawback I have found so far is that the lining of the back pocket seems to tear at the bottom if you keep a wallet in that pocket. It has happened on both the pairs I own, but now I just opt to store my wallet in one of the side cargo pockets. Overall I highly recommend these for anyone looking to be active outdoors and stay comfortable while doing so. They look pretty nice too!Update: I am now planning on ordering my 3rd pair of these pants to use as hiking pants, finally having more than one color will be nice! I am still very happy with these pants, and they have held up very well in the time I have owned them, going with on many hiking trips. Another thing I love about these is the weight. For how durable they are, they are remarkably lightweight and work great for a spar set of pants in a backpack. I will be ordering 1 size up from my usual waist measurement though as I did last time, they seem to run a bit tight in that area.

Excelente.

These Columbia convertible pants have held up fairly well and proven to be wonderfully quick drying. These pants have accompanied me on long canoe trips, week-long backpacking and hiking trips, and various other outdoor work. Even thorns (thankfully) didn't rip these pants! (though, I'm sure I just got lucky with that!!). The zippers for the cutoffs work well and only get slightly stuck while zipping around he leg. Best of all, I paid about $20 less for these pants on Amazon than REI charges for the same pants!!Now the downside: These pants are very tight for their size. I'm a skinny guy, but even after buying the half size up from what I am (mostly cause they don't offer my size in most pants) I found these pants to hug VERY tightly around my thighs and crotch -- which has both been uncomfortable in times of stretching and led to a rip in the crotch seam. Dear Columbia, dudes have packages...give them some ball space!OVERALL: Great quality, great at drying quickly, but WAY TOO SMALL in the crotch and thighs!

I took a pair of these with me backpacking to Vietnam and the Balkans last year, and they were excellent. They are comfortable, easy to wash, quick to dry, lightweight, and the zip pocket is great for storing valuables such as your wallet or passport. Coupled with some quick-dry underwear (Ex-Officio or other comparable brand) and shirts, you are an unstoppable force of nature. The fit is not too tight, but is not super loose either. Also, the belt that comes with it is ACE. Have had the pair for over a year and seem to be going strong.

Good pants for hiking and camping or, in my case, river rafting.The pants are a nice loose (but not overly baggy) fit, which combined with the nylon-ish material means even in the desert sun they don't feel too hot. And if they do, you can convert them to shorts. The material also is relatively water resistant and definitely quick drying, which made them great for river rafting.When my group left the river several times to do hikes through vegetation and such, I actually didn't remove the bottom parts as these pants provided good protection against thorns and other plants without feeling hot at all (despite the hot sun).These are a great set of outdoorsy pants for hikes, camping, rafting, etc. Good pockets too. The waist has a built in belt - I am usually a size 33 and since these only come in even sizes, I ordered a size 34. I had no problem at all - I probably didn't need the belt, but it allowed me to tighten them a bit further so they felt like a 33.

Excelente producto, muy buena calidad, fresco y realmente de secado rápido

I like them for the first 5 times I wore them--mostly (they fit tight around the thighs). 5 belt loops are not enough to keep a belt from sliding up over the waistband. The convertible aspect was well thought out and functioned as required. After about the sixth time wearing them, the stitching on the back pockets began to fail. The pockets only every held a leather wallet in one side, and a men's comb in the other. It can't imagine what would happen if real gear where to be carried. Currently, neither rear pocket will hold anything. Note to Columbia!: Its a high traffic area--use stronger thread! I expect more from the brand than what these pants delivered. I won't buy these pants again nor recommend them to anyone, unless the manufacturer can convince me I got the one-off poorly made pair.

Waist and comfort is perfect. However, based on individual's height trimming needs to be done.

I tried it while hiking in nepal, it was really practical and comfortable
