Comments: These pants/shorts should get the real test hiking and touring in the Alps for 5 weeks. The material is great and they shorts don't look totally ridiculous.

Cons:
Bulky, Sits too high on waist
Comments: Had to return these because they sat way too high on my waist, almost 2 inches above my belly button. No comfortable at all.

I was so excited by the price that I ignored the comments suggesting the petite length was not correct. Now I'll be sending these back.
Other than the length, these are perfect convertible pants (a little heavy for backpacking, but otherwise a good outdoor pant.) The construction is fabulous, and there are lots of little features like the micro chamois-lining at the waist, a non-abrasisve belt, a front zip security pocket, a pocket knife snap hook, ankle zips, reinforced knees and rear...
They are the Cadillac of convertible pants, but like a Cadillac, they are just too big. It pains me to return these super pants, but the length just can't be modified. I'm 5' and there is at least 5 extra inches in the leg. I expect petites to be a little long, but not dragging on the floor.
I would recommend the petite length to my taller friends.

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments: These are great pants. Fabric is thicker than my other convertible pants which is great for spring and fall weather. That makes them slightly heavier for backpacking, but they are worth it. Legs are wide and easily accomodate long underwear. These pants are very long. I am 5'8" and tried on a friend's pair of petite pants which fit me better length-wise than the regulars did. The pants do have a nice draw cord at the ankles which helps deal with the extra length. I will definitely buy these again, but will probably order the petite length.

Comments: This is my second pair of Mountain Hardware brand pants. The other pair fit a little tighter and I was a little reluctant to order the same size but, these are a more relaxed fit and are a perfect fit. You can't beat the quality of these pants. I'm thinking of buying another pair in another color before they all get snatched up!
