The North Face Paramount Convertible Pant - Men's
Love These Pants
These are wonderful! With 9 pockets to play in. One is zippered, 5 are velcro and 3 are open. The main pockets are clear to the bottom of the shorts which are a bit too deep for me, but nothing falls out! Love the gusseted crotch! Lots of freedom of movement. I've noticed I get slight pilling, but so far it hasn't been a problem. I now have three pair. So glad I discovered them, in Lake Louise, Canada yet.
Excellent Dual Purpose Hiking Pants.
I love these pants! Light enough that you don't even feel them yet very tough and completely wind resistant. The zip off pants work great. Just got back from two days in Linville George Wilderness with temp. swings from a cold windy frost at 34 degrees to hot sun at 71 degrees and the pants served me well from cold to hot! I am tall and the longs were a perfect fit. Even the shorts are long enough that there not Daisy Dukes. Thanks again.
Great Travel Pants
These pants are great. I just took them on a two week sight-seeing trip to Italy with only one other pair of pants, they were perfect. I definitely found myself wearing these more than the other pair I brought along. They are a great weight and the pockets are convenient for traveling. I had my passport, wallet, phone, maps, tickets, everything stuffed into these pants and I never felt uncomfortable during long days walking everywhere. Also, I am quite tall and slender, the Paramounts are cut slim and were long enough (sized Long) for my 6'5" frame. I love these pants.
The one's to have
Just returned from a 5 day canoe trip in the BWCA. Bought two of these pants and they became the only thing I wore Zipper on bottom of legs allows easy slip off when converting to shorts. Long pants keep you warm on cool mornings yet do not feel like they heat up as the afternoon warms us, so you can keep on the long pants to knock the sun off sunburned knees. When I went up to my thigh in water, these pants dried out fast. From soaking to dry, less than 20 min in 70 degree weather. The material is impressive and quality excellent.
Top Quality
These pants are always expensive, so I don't have many pairs, but they are worth the money due to the feel/look/durability when in use. They, at least mine, continue to last... only issue with this pair is the long designation is definitely long. I usually get L or 34 L or 35 length... but this is the 1st 34L that has been longer than I am used to... but still love.
