The North Face Paramount Porter Convertible Pant - Women's

Very comfortable and versatile. Great for whole day.

My daughter used these on a 50 mile hike and loved them. She has short legs and they were a perfect length for her.

I bought my first pair and now I want a pair in every color available. They are awesome for travel, backpacking and just every day. They wash and dry quickly even by hand and do not wrinkle.

I first bought 1 pair then expanded my stable to 4 pairs. They fit me right at Reg (I'm 5'5", 140#). They are best at traveling, backpacking since they wear fairly well, dry quickly, and convert to shorts/long pants/capris quickly. My only complaint is that after a while the material does pill and appears worn. But, overall, I'm very happy with these pants and would buy them or the same again

I bought a pair of these 2 years ago, and they successfully got me through several Eastern European countries along with much of the Middle East. They fit more like jeans and have a great adjustable waist tie. Fabulous. I had to buy 2 new pairs because I just wore the first ones out :)

I was very excited to find a manufacturer of LONG hiking pants. I must give North Face credit for that. However, they are still a bit short, have an uncomfortably hight waist, are movement restricting, zippers rub on skin, and sizing is off, so go about 2 sizes up from what you normally wear. A sad ending to a happy-beginning pants story.

Unfortunately the "short" version were just a tad too long causing lots of mud to accumulate during the hike. Also, I bought them a size larger and yet they tend to run small in the thigh area. However, they are light weight and did well in the rain.

For starters, I Love North Face, unfortunately I have to admit these pants in particular are not the best although they do get the job done for a reasonable price. Having the legs remove is a great convience but I found that the short length is a little short for me... I would prefer for them to zip off closer to the knee. Also I ended up having to wear these in the rain and they are NOT waterproof. They may keep off some light moisture but are not match for real rain. I would also like to point out that these run short so if you normally wear a regular inseam buy the long version. Also I felt they run a bit small so order a size up for more comfortable hiking.

i ordered these pants after trying them on at a store. then i ordered 3 other colors! does that tell you anything? It is hard to find good-looking convertible pants. these are them- a gem in a jungle of others that are so unflattering; people that wear them must not know about these!

I've finally found my ideal hiking pants in the Paramount Porters, I've had a pair for just over a year now and put them through everything and they still look pretty new. Material is excellent and stains and dirt just don't seem to stick. They also look great and I've now got three pairs. I had not problem with size changing after washing but then I have never put them in the dryer.

I was super excited to find some hiking pants that were long enough (ordered longs) and roomy enough to bend and stretch in ..... until I washed and dried them! Now they're tight where the zippers are, tight around the hips and they shrunk about an inch in length. Nope, I didn't wash in hot water or dry them excessively. If you want your paramount porter pants to stay true to size, don't dry them!

I'm a petite, muscular 5'5", 115, long torso. These fit me horribly: big in the waist, tight around the things. I've never had pants be too tight around my thighs before! Length was fine, which probably means they run on the short side, as I often have to hem my pants. And they are by no means low-rise. Other than the fit, I love that they're so all-in-one - shorts are a nice length, conversion to capris is a simple, effective button. Fabric is kind of heavy - not for SoCal deserts, better for fall/springs deserts or high altitude summers. It does look sturdy, though.

I'm 5'9" and usually a size 6, but I got size 8 in these and they're just right -- roomy enough to allow freedom of movement and boyfriend thinks they're cute. Zip off shorts are a good length, about halfway to knee. They didn't seem to shrink too much in the dryer after being handed over to laundry service. Where have these pants been my whole life?? Definitely worth the splurge. I've got 2 pairs. This site's easy returns policy made it easy to order different sizes to try.

These are great. I bought them for work because they are wash and wear. No ironing needed and the don't shrink in the dryer. I absolutely love them. Will be great for summer shorts also. I have had several people notice them and ask because they look so comfortable.

I found these pants and fell in love! I always have a hard time finding pants because I am only 5'2 and have an inseam of about 29". I was a little worried that the short might be a little too short, but I'm glad I got them. The length is perfect! The only down side is that they grey color was not available in size 6, which might have have fit a little better. The size 4 restricts my movement a little bit, but overall, they're still great.

I have the paramount porter convertable pant since 2006.still look new. still indestructable.
