Hmmm not bad
Nice pants. Good price as I dont mind last years models. Size is a bit small, but I do have alittle extra winter fat that seems to disapear in the warmer months so it will fit just fine. Havent tired them on the trail, but have wore them around the house and even got the wet on purpose to see how fast they dried, they seem to dry really fast. For the price they cant be beat if this is the type of pants you are looking for. Oh they weight about 11 ounces.

Pants are extremely comfortable. They were great to wear during a long Texas hike. They do soak in water, but they dry very quickly. I appreciate the zippered pockets for the wallet and one on the right hip. Glad to know I won't loose my keys crawling over a log. Another plus is they can take up very little space when rolled up and packed. I'll probably be buying another pair soon. Looking forward to some more hikes in them.

Great pants
I own several pairs of Columbia pants that I use or fieldwork. They are great for cool and hot weather. Inseam length ran a lil long compared to other Columbia styles. Love the zipoffs for varying field conditions. Very durable material. Yet to tear trekking through Manzanita in the Sierras!

Great river pants
These pants are great. I canoe in Mo. in the spring and fall so you never no about the weather. This is the lowest price I have seen so even better. I am going to get one more pair before they run out. As always Altrec service and shipping is great.

Excellent pant
I ordered the Large size and it fit my 35 in waist perfect. If you are 37 in or over you might need the next size up. The pant is a very good quality and fits very nice. I wear a 30 inseam which is a short and the length is perfect. The ample supply of pockets will come in handy when I travel. I plan to order another pair soon.

en's Titanium Omni-Dry Silver Ridge II Convertible
The pants are great. They are cut a little tight. There is not much wiggle room for a size. I will buy a size larger than Inormally do to get a looser fit. Love the extra pockets, etc.

Great pants
The pants are great, dry quickly as claimed, nice quality. Only wish they were thicker and tougher, but none quick-dry is thick, you just have to make a choice. Overall, I like them.
February 7, 2011
Very lightweight and functional. Not sure about durability, but quality and workmanship appears excellent.
January 14, 2011
Even better than advertised
The description does not do these pants justice. First of all, the two zippered pockets provide the perfect amount of security for cash/wallets/valuables while in areas prone to pick-pocketing. Second, these pants are extremely thin and lightweight. If you roll these pants up and pack them tight, I estimate a volume of 550 to 650 cubic centimeters. Wonderful, wonderful pants, even for the price.
January 11, 2011
very good for hiking
I like these pant. I hike every time and they help because they are light weight and very comfortable. I plan on using them in my next cross country hiking tour.

Christmas Success
Bought these for the man on the list and ended up buying 2 more pairs since he LOVES them! He says they are the most comfortable pants he has ever had!
December 26, 2010
Great pant for all seasons
This is my second purchase of these pants: in summer they're cool and protective for hiking; cooler still, when the bottoms are zipped off. There is yet another use: when it gets cool just wear a capilene layer underneath and you're warm enough for below normal temperatures in FL! They
wash well and dry quickly and look the same as when they were new.

Great shorts! Decent pants
I love these shorts! I bought them last year and have used them on a few separate occasions. 1. was 3 day trip to lake Powell where I wore them as a swimsuit and all around, they dried fast! and were comfy, no chaffing! 2. I have worn the shorts on a few day hikes and they are so comfy with plenty of pockets! 3. A multi day trip around Cottonwood canyon, they were great as shorts during the day! and at night when it got chili again they were fun pants! a little baggy though for me overall. I have the sage color and wouldn't hesitate to recommend these to anyone!

Excellent Pants
Very happy I ordered these pants before my vacation they are light and comfortable and were not hot to walk around in then very easy to convert into shorts and were great in the water and dried quickly. Also the zipper pocket was great to keep my valuables safe and secure.
December 15, 2010
Just what I was looking for
I like these to play disc golf in. I live in the Pacific Northwest and especially during the winter it's nice to have a pair of these pants because they dry so quickly, are very comfortable, and do not restrict my movement. I would definitely recommend these convertible pants for year round outdoor activities.
December 11, 2010
Poor quality
I usually get North Face but decided to give Columbia a try and save some money. After wearing these for about an hour, the button came off?!
Back to my trusted brand that has never done anything like this.
December 4, 2010
Columbia Quality
Pants are of the typical high Columbia quality: well-made, functional and they look good.Secret pocket a nice touch. Thought the mesh lining to pockets would give, but have put them through fair amount of use and they are in great shape. belt is flimsy, but need to understand neede thin belt for pack belt. Pack down compact.

Nice Hiking Pants
Took this pants on two week-long alpine hikes and these performed well. Breathe well. Dry fast. The fit is a bit on the long and loose side. So if you are between sizes, take the smaller. Nice pants. Recommend it.
September 28, 2010
Pants are true to size and just as expected. Good design. Pants are easy to pack and lightweight.
September 22, 2010
Very comfortable and high quality.
Really like the zipper pockets and the fabric does dry quickly. I've worn these pants on a five day backpacking trip and found them to be durable and extremely comfortable. I would definitely purchase them again.
September 7, 2010
good pants for hiking
very comfortable on a long haul hike in cool weather, ideal for hot weather. the fabric is very comfortable. i actually felt the sizing was a little off in the inseam but otherwise perfect.

Men's Titanium Omni-Dry Convertible Pant
I purchased a pair of these pants for my husband and he liked them so much I immediately bought a second pair. Lightweight, great fit and true to size.
August 24, 2010

I love these convertible pants I am buying a second pair

Great pants
I bought these pants for my husband and he loves them. They are lightweight and run true to size.
August 2, 2010
Great Pants
The length is proper, the fit is great, and the convertible function is a must. These are a great, versatile pair of pants.
July 20, 2010
My Husband Loves These
Bought one pair of these for my husband last year. He loves the lightweight feel and comfort. I love how easy they are to wash and dry. They are wonderful for travel and everyday wear. I had to buy more pairs for him this year.
June 30, 2010
Great Convertible Pants. They are his favorite pair of pants
My husband enjoyed his convertible pants. He bought 2 pairs of the same pants locally 3 years ago and still wear's them. I thought he should get a new one, and he is very happy that I did purchase the same pant. I will be buying one more in July for his birthday.
June 29, 2010
Seems good, feels great
I know that these pants are super-comfortable; I don't yet know how durable they are. One person said they are not as strong as some of the others, but I love how they feel, so we'll see...
June 22, 2010
Versitle pants.
The pants are great. the fit is true to size. I like the fact that you can zip off the legs and have just the right length in shorts. Light weight and cool in the heat.
June 16, 2010
Great pants
Dries fast and they are very comfortable. I would definitely buy again.
June 7, 2010
Perfect for hot weather, and for keeping the bugs away.
These convertible pants are lightweight and comfortable. You can bunch them up and fold them in your bag, and the wrinkles fall out naturally after wearing them for a short time. The pants were great in Costa Rica where they protected me from rainforest insects. The pant legs zip off, leaving a pair of shorts that are cut right above the knee. My wife loves how these shorts look on me, and I wear them as shorts 90% of the time. I like them so much, I bought them in 5 different colors!
May 30, 2010
excellent hot weather pants
These pants are so cool in the heat that I often don't bother taking off the legs. They seem well-constructed so far, and have a good fit to them (a lot of the other brands/models I tried had really tapered legs). Would definitely recommend.
May 28, 2010
Nice pants.
Good fit. Lightweight. Dries quick. Look's cool.
May 17, 2010
excellent - back for more
These are great pants for outdoor summer gardening for us. Very light weight, fast drying and added bonus of sunscreen. When the day warms up, or we are done playing in the dirt - off come the legs and time to relax in the shorts. Back for a few more pairs...
May 5, 2010
Great outdoor gear
light material, drys quickly, has more zippered pockets than most other brand name convertible pants and comes with a belt unlike other brand name convertible pants; for as light as the material is, it holds up well in rugged conditions.
May 5, 2010
Great
Fits nicely. My husband loves it.
April 29, 2010
Nice Pants!
These are some GREAT pants! I love the hidden zippered pocket. I gonna order 2 more pair!
April 25, 2010
Great fit - light material
The fabric was not the typical nylon with no character. It is lightweight but has some texture. Fits just as you would expect
April 21, 2010
Great feel, nice fit
Bought these pants because I like the feel of the fabric much better than a straight nylon - makes the pants very comfortable. They also fit great and when converted to shorts aren't too short like other brands can be. Only complaint is the belt - could not be any cheaper and is not secured to the pants so it always ends up alone at the bottom of the washing machine.
April 21, 2010
Great fit for woman too
I am a woman and these trousers were recommended to me in London, where I live. They are the best-fitting safari trousers I had on my trip to Africa. I am currently in the States and have bought a second pair. So, all in all a great fit even for women!
April 15, 2010
Great pants
Nice pair of pants. I've always worn the larger size, which was a little on the baggy side. So, this time, I bought the smaller size, but was a little snug for my taste. Still fits well, but a little restrictive on the room. If you're like me, and between sizes, I recommend the larger size. Great quality pants though.
April 15, 2010
Great pants
My husband loves these pants. I am buying a second pair!!!
April 12, 2010
Fast drying and light weight
No 5 stars from me because anything can be improved. I have 2 pair and I use them for everything outdoors and travel. Nice enough to wear around town. Easy to pack and light weight. I am about 6' tall and 165 pounds and medium/32 fits great. Zippered pockets keep small items from falling out. The belt is a little long and could possibly break but no issues yet.
April 9, 2010
Light weight, look great
These are the first convertible pants I've ever worn that are just as comfortable and functional as regular shorts or pants. I think I could even wear them to the office.
April 7, 2010
LIGHT WEIGHT, DURABLE AND GREAT FIT
LIGHT WEIGHT, DURABLE AND GREAT FIT.
March 31, 2010
Light weight - fits true to size
Great idea to be able to take one pair of pants which also converts to shorts. Easy to pack.
March 29, 2010
Five Stars
Par for the course. Perfect fit. Good for athletics or for casual wear. This is my husbands third pair and he couldn't be happier with them.
March 23, 2010
Great fit
These pants are extremely light weight and versatile. Great cut too, not too baggy, yet comfortable and give you room to move. I'm 6' and 180lbs and M/32" fits perfectly. The shade color does look like it's part of a SWAT team uniform though. Legs zip off right above the knee, which might make them shorter than usual shorts.
March 9, 2010
Good pant for any activity outdoors
I wear these pants while hiking, riding bikes, and sometimes running. The "convertibleness" is a pretty nice option particularly in the spring and fall when the early morning is cool and warms up as the day goes on.
February 3, 2010
Light weight & great fit. Should be excellent for travel
Have already ordered other colors.
January 16, 2010
Men's Titanium Omni Dry....Silver
I bought a pair of these pants for my husband. They are so versitile, lightweight and extra comfortable. He loves the fact that he can unzip them and wear as shorts. The fit is excellent for him.
January 6, 2010
Best Pants
These are the best convertible pants out there. No side zippers so they can be shortened if you are vertically challenged like me.
December 26, 2009
A Must for your next Cruise!
I purchased two pair of Titanium Omni-Dry Silver Ridge II for my cruise to the eastern Mediterranean . I wore a pair most of the 12 days. They are PERFECT! They go from your pack or suitcase to (wear) without ironing. On shore excursions to they are great because the weather is so changeable. It was hot at the Pyramids, rained in Athens, and was both (hot and rainy) in the same day in Rome. They were also very functional for casual days at sea. When on deck you can lose the lower legs and sit poolside. They are also great as lightweight lounge wear around the house. Best pair of zip offs, I have ever owned.
December 3, 2009
Very light and comfortable
I love these convertible pants. It is very easy to zip the pant legs on and off. Fit great, I'm 6'0, 160 with a 32 inch inseam and the Medium was perfect for me. I think the belt that comes with them is unnecessary.
November 12, 2009
Super light, durable and comfortable.
A very comfortable trail pant which is light weight and durable. Size fits well Im a 6.1 footer 88kg got a L 34inseam. And you can fold it into small folds, minimizing space.
October 30, 2009
Hard-To-Beat For Trail Use
I bought these pants/shorts to use for hiking and they did not disappoint. Excellent ventilation; lightweight material but sturdy enough for average use in the bushes. Well-placed and well-designed pockets. Outstanding experience with pants and this seller.
October 4, 2009
Perfect for traveling as well as outdoor activities
My second pair - I got the first ones for kayaking to have pants for cool mornings then switch to shorts as the day warms up. Wanted the Omni-Dry fabric. Perfect pants! When traveling, I pack light, so these effectively double my wardrobe (shorts / pants) as well as pack very compactly.
September 29, 2009
Lightweight, easy clean, very durable
Freedom of movement is great. Can wear to dinner or hiking in the woods. Wore them through thorny bramble which left no trace or damage of any kind. Remarkable.
September 29, 2009
comfy quick dry pack light
Took these on a 2 week train/hike around Italy, sink-washed well, dried by next day, and held up to sitting on rocks and backpack rub. I have 2 pair and still love them, not too baggy like a pair of rei convertibles I got that pilled up that will be returned.
September 21, 2009
Comfortable, good looking hiking pants
Bought this second pair because I liked the first one so much. Very comfortable, nice fit, and not too baggy. Colors are good and I like the fact that it has two back pockets, some other brands did not.
September 3, 2009
So Light, Dry, yet strong... incredible pants for traveling
I bought my first Columbia Omni-Dry shorts in an outfitters in Telluride, and they performed so well I ordered these convertible pants when I got home. Not only great for hiking, but also for everyday use. Pack very easily... what's not to love about them? And the Altrec discounted price really helps too!
September 3, 2009
like em
I purchased these pants because my waist size is 31 and it's almost impossible to find pants that fit. However "small" in these pants are for waist sizes 29 to 32 and these pants fit perfectly. They fit good, washed up great and everything functions properly.
August 25, 2009
Great fit and comfort
These pants are awesome summer backpacking pants. Great fit and convertible to shorts. They look great, feel great, and are convenient. I wear them hiking and out on the town
August 13, 2009
Careful with Sizing
Great pair of pants/shorts! Very light and can be worn even on warmer days without converting to shorts. Be careful with the waist sizing on these pants. I'm 6'1", 195 lbs and wear a 34 or 35 size waist in most if not all pants. I decided to go for the Med, 32" inseam at first. Inseam was great but had to return the pants because of the waist.....Large ended up fitting perfect. Moral of the story....size up if you're on the cusp of two different sizes. Tightening your pants is easier than losing weight. Enjoy!
July 4, 2009
Comfort like no other convertible pants
The fabric is softer than other pants I have tried. The other brands you noticed that there was a zipper where the shorts zip off....On the Titanium convertibles by Columbia you feel like you are wearing pants not a zip on/off....For that reason alone I think these are a cut above....also they don't have the zipper at the bottom of the pants leg....that is good for someone shorter like me who will need to have them shortened.....Of course then you might have to take your shoes or boots off when you make them into shorts....but for me not having that feature was a plus...
July 4, 2009
excellent product and I am a 100% satisfied customer with Altec
Can't live without these pants. Most comfortable to wear and easy to maintain
June 30, 2009
Great pants & excellent fit
The Silver Ridge II convertable pant has a very good fit and it's cool to wear on hot summer days. I like the extra leg pockets plus the zipper pocket in the back is great for secure holding. I have a 32 waist and ordered the Small size with 34 inseam length and it fits great!
June 21, 2009
These pants are great
I have about five pairs of these and they are fantastic. Comfortable with enough room. Light and cool even in the summer. I like them for the lake because I can wear them to avoid the bugs and still not be too hot.
June 20, 2009
Amazing fit!!
I have been looking for a decent pair of backpacking pants for literally 10+ years. I have tried MANY. I hated all of them. Bad fit, to short, to hot. then i got these. WOW amazing fit (no balloon pants here) I am a tall guy I got the medium with 34 length. I held my breath till they arrived. tried them on and was really pleased!! These are by far the best pair of these i have ever found. I am buying more!! By the way customer service was quick by email and very accommodating. (minor shipping issue which was quickly resolved)
June 15, 2009
One pair does all. Columbia knows outdoor needs
This pant/short is the ultimate in versatility. Very well fitting, light and fast drying. Good looking style and function even to wear as casual to work. The side elastic is small and does not bunch or roll.In fact, you do not even know it is there as compared to other pants with elastic. I am a 32' waist so went with the MED and it fits comfortable but not too loose. The 10" short inseam is a nice long length. I will buy another pair.
June 9, 2009
Excellent Pants, just what I was looking for
I just wore these up to the boundary waters and they were perfect. The shorts fit like normal shorts; not like the zip off shorts that look like officer Dangle on reno 911. Also, they are extremely comfortable and aren't too baggy. Well worth the price. After a weekend's worth of abuse the convertible pants are still rocking and look like brand new.
May 26, 2009
Great pant for motorcycle travel, camping
Very thin and light, breath well and dry quickly, which makes them good for wearing inside a "stich" suit or overpants. Zippered rear right pocket and security right front pocket give lots of storage for "can't lose" items. They come with a thin nylon belt, but have full size beltloops to use something sturdier. Very good for when I just want to use chaps. Legs zip off easily, but don't have expansion zips at the bottoms to clear boots. Shorts feel very light and cool, and zips don't irritate my legs. Good pant, good value, I bought two pair.
May 12, 2009
Good for spring and summer
Decent pair of pants. The fabric is very thin and light, it breathes well and dries fast. They feel like you are wearing running pants. I was looking for something alittle thicker, but they are still good pants anyway. My only compaint is that the legs are a bit wider than it looks in the pictures, I was hoping they would be somewhat tapered. Also, I bought them in Sage color, thinking they were as dark as the picture, not the case (should have gotten Tank instead).There are many pockets (two of which are zippered). Overall a good pair of pants, which is why I decided to keep them anyway.
