Nice fit and very practical pants

Ranked #1383 - Men's Hiking and Climbing Pants
September 18, 2008
Buying clothes online is often a problem for me, but I had looked at dozens of convertible pants at a couple of local outdoor stores and not found anything. On the rack, the ones at the store all came up to my armpits! Anyway, I checked the sizing chart on this page and chose S/Short pants to fit my somewhat less than 30" inseam and 30-31" waist. Well, they fit perfectly!
Aside from the sizing, the fabric feels a bit thin like swim trunks, but seems plenty strong. The pockets are roomy, deep and useful. I kept a camera, bags of snacks and a GPS in various pockets comfortably. The webbing belt is thin enough to be comfortable under medium to large backpacks.
These are definitely my favorite hiking pants ever.
