Are Convertible Hiking Pants better than a normal long pair of pants?
What Is The Best Color For Hiking Pants?
Darker colors including black are more suited for hiking in colder weather. Light colored pants such as tan, white, or beige are better for hiking in hotter temperatures.
Why Are Zip-Off Pants Good For Hiking?
They are ideal when you are hiking at high altitudes or facing uncertain weather conditions. They are essentially two pieces of clothing in one. However, thanks to being one item, you save space as you only need to pack these pants by themselves.
Hi, y'all! I recently tore a bunch of small holes in my go-to Ascend convertible pants from Bass Pro Shop, and I guess its time for something a bit more technical.
During the day, I always unzip them into shorts, but I like the option of putting them on for around camp, and when its colder than 30 degrees. During the summer, I will probably use my MHW Elkommando kilt, but if I'm going with people who are put off by it, I would go to the pants. I guess rugged is good, but not too much weight is nice, ideally quick drying. I know some people go with shorts and wind pants, but I don't think its for me, being that there are times when cold weather bushwhacking comes up. Loose fit is also good, as I would want to wear my Patagonia thermal weights under it when I sleep. The integrated belt is also nice, like the MHW ones, but not required, I would just need a belt recommendation.
I'm 5'11", 185, and generally, wear a 35x34, but if your fit was different, let me know! Thanks!
Past few years I'v been pretty much exclusively using these quite heavy Fjällräven trekking/hiking pants. For literally everything except the gym, running and anything dressy. At home, shops, work, office, hiking, camping, walking, hanging out, travelling, even eating out at times. Everything.
I have the Nils and Barents Pro pants, plus the shorts version of the barents. I like them because they don't immediatelly stick out as cargo pants or just hiking pants. They look more casual because they are of a single color fabric (At least in my eyes, 2 colors instantly makes a hiking pant. Like this.) and even though the pockets are big, they don't stick out like they do in cargo pants.
I have some criteria I'm very strict about, the fabric of the pants must all be the same colour, nothing stretchy and no zippered pockets.
I guess this turned out to be quite a bit more than just "cotton hiking pants"...
