From Backcountry.com:
"The North Face's Paramount Convertible Pants have legs that zip off at mid-thigh to make shorts. They're water-repellent and quick drying, making them perfect for your trek on the Inca Trail, your visit to Sri Lanka during monsoon season, or anywhere rain may threaten. Incredibly durable, the Paramount Convertibles have double needle stitching and bartacks throughout and they're still lightweight! Plenty of pockets, including two right side utility and two cargo, are waiting to be stuffed with your compass, an energy bar, keys, whatever!"

From Altrec Outdoors:
"See the New Version of the Men's Paramount Convertible Pants Whether it's living out of a suitcase or stuffing it all into a pack, these convertible pants from The North Face are a perfectly practical call, especially on trips where the temperatures fluctuate dramatically from dawn to dusk. Hidden zippers at mid thigh zip off and feature a cargo short design. Despite the durable faille weave nylon fabric and the double-needle stitching and bartacks throughout the garment, these pants are amazingly lightweight and dry much more quickly than denim jeans or cotton pants. Best of all, there are plenty of pockets and closures to help keep essentials secure."

From RockCreek:
"The Paramount Convertible Pant by The North Face is an excellent hiking and backpacking pant for summer/spring weather. Constructed with a highly durable, abrasion resistant nylon with a DWR finish that repels light rain, or mist. Super convenient with zipoffs at mid thigh that enables the pant to be turned to shorts easily and without taking your boots off. Plenty of pockets keep your most important items nearby and a constructed waistband with belt loops, zip fly and included belt keep your pants right where they need to be."

"These are very versatile pants-climbing, hiking, and kayaking. Pretty tough. Dry quick, maybe not as quick as some other pants, but quick enough. I was surprised at the durability for as lightweight a material."

"I purchased these pants from REI some time in Summer of 2007. I used them on two trips and loved them, but noticed the stitching coming out of the rear. No problem -- took them back to REI and exchanged for a new pair. Used the new pair on a single 5-day excursion and noticing the stitching coming out again."

"Theses are some comfortable pants I could wear on trail or in town. They are DWR and when I was on the trail and it started raining hard with my parka I stayed comfortable and dry, what was wet dried easily. Talk about one too many pockets, you could fit the world in these pockets. All the features and quality I would expect from TNF."
