Top five reasons for zip-off pants: trekking in mercurial weather, climbing a route that goes from shade to sun, crossing rivers, saving weight with one pair of pants that does it all and using a zipped-off leg to carry beers to the swimming hole. Lightweight and quick-drying, the Patagonia Men's Gi III Zip-Off Convertible Pants feature a wear-resistant 100% nylon taslan fabric with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish and life-of-the-garment UPF 50 sun protection. Details include a gusseted crotch for mobility, color-coded zippers to make shorts-to-pants conversions faster, ankle zips for easy-off over boots, an elasticized waist with built-in adjustable belt for comfort and two mesh draining pockets in front, one on the right thigh and one in back to hold your gear.
