Do the side zips have 2 or 4 zippers per side for venting? I prefer 4-that way the bottom and top stay zipped and you can open a section anywhere on your leg you want to air out. Its not clear from the picture or description. Thanks!

There are 2 zippers per side. The top stays closed with the industrial hook-n-eye tab. The bottom stays closed with a snap button. Three reasons to go with 2 zippers and these reinforcements than with 4 zippers. There is no fussing with double zippers when you need to get in/get out of the pants, it is more weather resistant (no hole between zippers for moisture/wind to leak through), and it shaves weight (albeit ounces) off.
