2-in-1 Zip-Off Hiking Pants, Quick-Drying & Windproof

When long pants suddenly become too warm

A steep ascent in the blazing midday sun, and your long pants become more uncomfortable by the minute, while there are no shorts to be found in your backpack. 2-in-1 zip-off hiking pants solve exactly this problem: a zipper just above the knee detaches the lower part of the leg, transforming long pants into shorts in seconds, without having to change in the bushes or carry extra luggage.

What these pants truly offer

• Detachable pant legs – the zipper at the knee instantly converts long pants into shorts when needed, ideal for changing weather or rising temperatures.
• Quick-drying, windproof fabric – the blended fabric dries quickly after a rain shower and keeps you warm on exposed ridges in windy conditions.
• Secure zippered thigh pocket – keeps maps, keys, or your phone secure, even when scrambling over rocks.
• Adjustable drawstring waistband – the flat, smooth waistband with a drawstring adapts to your waist without digging in.

Available in men's and women's cuts and four colors, suitable for hiking, cycling tours, camping, and light winter sports excursions, for anyone who doesn't want to commit to a single pant length.

The most common concern – and how it's resolved

The biggest concern with zip-off pants: the zipper at the knee chafes or tears after a few uses. The reinforced seam around the zipper was specifically designed for frequent zipping on and off and withstands repeated use. For care, a machine wash at 30 degrees is sufficient; the zipper should be closed before washing to protect the teeth.

Whoever wears these pants is prepared for any change in weather without having to pack a second pair of pants.
