"When I need hiking pants that can adapt to unpredictable conditions, these are my go-to. The zip-off legs make it easy to switch to shorts on warm days, while the Omni-Wick™ fabric keeps me dry when I'm working up a sweat. I love the articulated knees and stretch fabric for unrestricted movement on rocky trails. Plus, the secure pockets keep my essentials safe whether I’m scrambling up a ridge or setting up camp."

Great fit!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pants fit amazingly well. I am a hard fit... waist is always too big if the hips fit... but these pants fit perfectly!!

Great pants for hiking
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good quality pants, however, I would've had to have gone up to a size 8 because I have wide hips I am 5 foot 6 inches and 135 pounds I typically wear a size 6, but I would've had to have sized up to an eight to feel comfortable

Great features but fit is inconsistent
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The features and fabric of these pants are great. The fit, however is not; despite other Columbia pants fitting me in the size ordered (2; I am 5’5” and 107 pounds), these pants were too tight. The legs are especially tight, not what you want for hiking.

Very fitted
Agree with others in that it may be true to size but not roomy. Not sure I will keep. Also, wish they were in store as wouldvlike to try before I buy

Not for women with normal thighs
Great concept, unless you're a regular woman and don't have extra skinny thighs. If you have normal thighs, the zippers will cut into your legs, particularly when you're sitting. Wish Columbia would either fix design flaw or bring back the saturday trail pants that are capri-convertible, and don't kill your thighs.

Perfect hikers
Love the fit, comfort and thoughtful pockets, perfect for carrying essentials. Will order another pair. Legs are long in regular fit- works for me but others may want to measure just in case.

Nice pants but they run a little small
I bought the same size a year ago in khaki, they still fit, but the new ones run a little small.
