Outdoor Research Women's Ferrosi Convertible Pants

These pants are awesome! Lightweight, breathable, and so far I've been unable to rip them despite sliding down rocks. They are outstanding for hiking and have a large zippered side pocket that easily fits my phone, a back zippered pocket for my keys, ID and $, and another back pocket and 2 front pockets without zippers. On top of all these features, they look great. Even though they are convertible to shorts, they look good enough to wear to dinner at a nice restaurant (when they are clean, of course; -) making them the perfect pants for travel as well. And so comfortable you can climb boulders in them as well as wear them on that long haul flight.

I've been using these pants for hiking and find the light weight fabric great for warmer temperatures. The side pocket is a good size for my field notebook and I like the fit of these pants generally.

Great for hiking, very comfortable and stretchy. Good for warm days. I'm short so the loop at the bottom is great to adjust them. It is very nice to have pockets with zippers

Just returned from my 2nd 10-day backpacking trip using these pants. 8/10 days of rain yet they dried very quickly. Also very durable given the rough terrain we hiked through. Definitely recommend!

These pants are so comfortable and the fabric is really nice. The pockets are substantial (which you don't always find in women's pants). They were still a bit too long for me but I have had them altered. I will be wearing these when we go to Italy in the fall.

These pants are amazingly comfortable. I love how stretchy they are.

They fit great an are so comfortable! I am 5'6" 140 pounds and they fit perfect.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wore my new Ferrosi convertible pants on a 12 mile hike in Rocky Mountain National Park. The morning started at around 72 degrees so I left them as pants and zipped off the legs after about an hour when the day started getting really warm. As we reached the summit a summer storm brought a 20+ degree temp drop and some serious rain. I zipped the pant legs back on and I was surprised at how water resistant they were. I didn't stay completely dry but after the storm passed, and the sun came out, everything dried out quickly and it was not uncomfortable or chafing while wet. Overall, the pants were great as shorts - lightweight, flexible and cool when the weather was hot, and also did well in the colder temperatures and rain - they didn't stick to my skin, chafe, or lose their shape. And a light rain wouldn't have soaked through the fabric at all.
