What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I like these pants for trips where the weather can’t make up its mind. I’ve started hikes in cold shade and finished in full sun, and the zip-off legs make the transition painless. The FlashDry-XD fabric dries fast, handles light rain well, and the slim fit keeps things feeling streamlined without limiting movement." We pull on the Paramount Pro Convertible Pant when the forecast looks unpredictable and the plan involves staying outside all day. Designed by The North Face for fast-moving hikes and variable conditions, this pant gives us the flexibility to adapt without stopping the adventure. FlashDry-XD fabric keeps moisture moving when we heat up and sheds light precipitation with ease, while articulated knees support a natural stride on steep climbs and uneven terrain. When temperatures spike, the zip-off legs convert the pants into shorts for instant relief. With built-in sun protection, an integrated belt, and a performance-driven fit, the Paramount Pro Convertible Pant keeps us comfortable from chilly trailheads to sun-baked switchbacks.
