These pants do what they say they'll do. The zipper to convert them into long shorts is a little wonky, but overall, they are good travel pants. However, if you are "hippy" like me, you'll find you need to go up one to two sizes to fit the hips (even AFTER following the sizing requirements) - unfortunately this results in a very baggy look around the slimmer leg, which I don't really care for. I'll continue to use these, but I won't buy another pair.
