HIKEOUT ZIP AWAY PANTS W

The zippers on these pants glide so smoothly that I can convert them to shorts mid-hike without even breaking stride. The fabric feels surprisingly durable yet breathes well enough that I didn’t overheat on a warm afternoon climb.

I was pleasantly surprised how well the tapered fit moved with me during a steep scramble. The fabric feels durable yet lightweight, and the zip-off feature made transitioning from pants to shorts seamless.

Swapped shorts mid-hike yesterday when the sun came out and the breeze died—the zip-off legs are effortless and the TEXASHIELD fabric really does block wind nicely.
