ColumbiaMen's Silver Ridge Convertible Pant

Nothing bad to say about these - great fit, comfortable, lots of good pockets, sip off bottoms, high quality material. Best fishing pants ever!

Having received a pair as a gift, I found myself wearing them daily in regular suburban life as well as hiking outdoors and sailing.Now I have five pairs in three colors and use them daily, wet or dry—except for cold weather and smart parties.Yes, I have converted them for shorts on occasion.Qualities? Lightweight and water repellent, breathable.Weaknesses? Velcro wears out, especially on hip pocket for phone, and stitching wears out on all the back pockets as soon as you sit down.Slim fit is not as good for squatting down but good for walking.Flubs appear from sailing tools in pockets and one pocket burst, costing me a multi tool and a small winch handle overboard.

These pants fit great and look great. They are lightweight sun and rain resistant, so they are easy to pack and usable as long pants and shorts. They cost more than a lot of similar items for sale here but the material, the comfort of a good fit, and the overall quality of the stitching and several zippered pockets, very useful.

These really are great pants. They're comfortable, fit well, and they unzip to become shorts. They also dry very quickly. I used them for my African safari, and they were perfect. That said, beware the pockets. After only about 2 months of wearing them (in rotation with other pants), the back pocket has already torn. The stitching came undone. I noticed after putting my wallet in my back pocket and feeling it fall down my pant leg. Because of how light they are, the stitching and pocket material tears very easily.

Get them with 1 size larger waist, they don't stretch, length is ok. Lightweight but durable, dries quickly, plastic belt is great for plane travel, packs in a small space. Wash in cool water, air dries overnight. I have 8 pair now and wear 8 months in Dallas warm weather. Only problem, prior pair had zipper on pocket fail and come apart after 1 year. Prior pants version also has net style front pockets and no problems, new pants version netting has slightly bigger holes so we'll see how durable it is. Very nice in hot, warm or cool weather, breathes easily. Not sure about cold weather.

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.

The pants themselves are fantastic. Comfortable with breathability. Pockets are a good size too. The fit is why I gave them 3 stars. I wear a 34x32 usually. I had to reorder a couple times and finally got a pair of 36x30 that fit okay. Could possibly go to 36x28 because the length is so long
