The Camping Addict

Prana Pants

Convertible pants can be a godsend or an irritation when camping, hiking, backpacking, or rock climbing. As anyone who loves the outdoors knows, the smallest detail on an item of clothing can become a huge issue when that clothing is worn for outdoor activity. Not quite perfect fit, excessive weight, lack of breathability, shallow pockets, and decorations that catch and snag can be worse than a pebble trapped in the bottom of your shoe. Prana makes convertible women’s pants that address all those issues and more before you ever hit the trail.

The pants fit snugly around the midsection so they stay put no matter what you are doing (no constantly hiking up your waistband), then fall loosely down the leg for comfort. The fabric is sturdy and breathable yet flexible, with enough stretch to move with you when scrambling over rocks or up hillsides. Pockets are deep, functional, and snap shut, and the zip off legs can be folded neatly inside them with no trouble. Available in a wide range of neutral earth colors, the pants retail for between $44.97 and $75.00.
