[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these pants! I am 5’0 95 lbs and bought these in size 4 short for winter to give a little room to layer underneath. I usually buy these pants in size 2 for a more fitted style. Short length is good for my size. Love the material- its quick dry, light, stain & water resistant. These are my favorite pants to hike in! Love being able to zip off bottoms to convert to shorts during summer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I read and re-read the reviews and figured I would roll the dice and try these and I am glad I did! They’re perfect! Even ordered another pair this morning. I would advise you to take a good look at the size and shape of the model in the product image. I am built about the same and the parts fit just like in the photo. If you have larger thighs or hips, I can see where that might be an issue. For me, it wasn’t. The length was even great. I’m 5’7” with longer legs, but these worked!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm normally a size 6 and had to get a 10 in these to fit in the legs, but the waist is low and wide, so I'd need a belt. The pants are not lined and the zip-off area above the knee would certainly irritate my legs as I'm hiking. Definitely not worth the price, in my opinion. I have the earlier version of these Saturday Trail pants with no zip-off (just a roll-up with tab) and I love them, but these are not a suitable replacement for those. Disappointed with these and returned.

I ordered these pants in 2 different sizes, 4 and 6, since I usually wear a 4 in all brands but wanted to make sure I had some that fit for an upcoming trip. The pants are really nice, but the 4 and even the 6 were significantly small in the waist. I wonder if all Columbia pants are smaller in the waist than other brands?

I bought 3 pairs of these pants for a wildlife photography trip to Botswana, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe. They were perfect. Light weight, breathable, dried fast, easy to pack. They came in sizes with “Long” inseams which I definitely need and is not easy to find. These pants performed so well that I purchased an additional 3 pairs for a wildlife photography trip to Brazil’s Pantanal. Again, these pants did not disappoint. I wish they came in more colors although British Tan/khaki worked for my purposes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am usually very weary of ordering pants without trying them on and these pants are very true to size.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comfortable and good fit. Perfect for travel. Runs small. I’m usually size 6-8. I bought size 10 and it’s perfect!

DO NOT BUY THESE PANTS!!! The description for these pants said their use is for hiking. The first time I wore them hiking I came home with many snags on the pant legs, especially near the bottom. They are NOT suitable for hiking in natural areas. Only paved surfaces. This fabric sticks on everything when you are hiking.

Bought a size up knowing the thigh zippers always run small. Standing the pants fit fine, plenty of room around the thigh zippers, but as soon as I squat down circulation is cut off.

These are the BEST hiking pants! The reason why is 1: they are convertible and 2: they cinch at the bottom which makes it possible to since over your hiking boots to avoid getting ticks and your ankles brushing on poison ivy, which is so important! Plus, they are the only columbia pant that comes in inseam "Short" which is great for petites. My only issue is that the women's & men's color options are not the same, colors my husband needs women's have and colors like the men's blue, women's doesn't have which I need. This pant is much better than the Silver Ridge and wish this pant came in the colors the Silver Ridge has. I hope this isn't getting discounted since I need to rebuy after having these for over a decade.

It is a beautiful pants, perfect size for my waist and hip however around the zipper is too tight, I cant wear it, so sad. If you have thick thighs this is not for you, unless you buy a bigger size.

I bought this for a rough camping/canoeing/hiking trip coming up and was excited to see them in plus sizes. Knowing how women's clothing can vary in sizes I bought I size larger than ALL of my pants. They are very tight on my waist and thighs (I have muscular thighs and usually swim in regular cut pants). The length was spot on (short for me). For the price I paid I am very disappointed, but the tight pants will have to work because I leave in two days. I expected better from Columbia.

These pants were great but I wish the sizing wasn't so small as I had to guess and fortunately guessed right!

I bought these in April, tried them on and were great so didn’t think anything of it until I actually wore them and tried sitting in these pants! Zipper is so tight around legs that it feels like a tourniquet! Unfortunately too late to return them! I would not recommend these pants

I ordered a pair for my daughter and myself. I really like the material, perfect for hiking. However, as other reviewers have stated, it is uncomfortable tight with no stretch at the zipper in the thigh area. I was unable to bend my leg without it tightening and forming a line at my thigh. I am a size 12, so I figured that these just weren’t made for curvier women, but my size 2 had the same problem. Sadly, both of these are being returned.
