What customers say:

The Cresta Hiking zip-off pants are generally well-received for their versatility, comfort, and suitability for outdoor activities and travel. Customers praise the lightweight, durable construction and good range of motion, as well as the convenient zip-off feature that allows the pants to be converted to shorts. However, some customers have experienced quality and fit issues, such as problems with the zipper or the pants running small. Overall, the pants appear to be a solid choice for their intended use, though customers may want to consider ordering a size up or trying them on before purchase to ensure the best fit.

These are a second pair. When one pair proves to be essential, two is twice as nice! These pants are just so versatile as pants or shorts, and if they get wet they drive quickly.
