Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I tried on close to a dozen pairs of pants searching for the ideal convertible pair for an upcoming hike of the Camino de Santiago. For a while, my front-runner was another version of these exact pants (same brand, same everything) that have zip-off legs. With that pant I ran into the same problem as many other reviewers- the fit and fabric were flawless, but the zippers had ZERO give and squished my thighs when in motion. I am 5'8", 128 pounds, with a thigh circumference of about 17-18" when measured two to three inches above the knee (where the zippers were). "Gosh," I thought. "I wish they made a version of that pant without the zippers." Well, lo and behold, I found these pants. They roll up and snap into place to make capris instead of shorts, but I am willing to live without a shorts option given my expected hiking conditions. I wore these pants on a ten-mile hike right out of the box and they fit great and moved with me. Looking forward to taking these on my hike.
