Comfortable convertible hiking and travel pants with an internal drawstring and elastic waist.

Excellent for hiking climbing backpacking and adventure traveling through transitional weather The North Face Meridian Convertible Pant features water-resistant DWR for liquid sunshine and a Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) rating of 30+ for the real thing. This weather versatility makes The North Face Meridian Convertible Pant an excellent choice for extended summer trips where climate changes vary significantly. Unlike the web-belted versions of The North Face unfitted Paramount shorts and pants the Meridian Convertible Pant features an internal drawcord with a 3/4-length elastic waist for more sizing options and a little less pack weight. Long-haul backpackers appreciate this adaptable sizing feature when they're burning thrice the daily calories that they eat in the backcountry (and it's worse if the cook is bad). Travel-savvy features include a hidden internal security pocket and a practical 9-in. short inseam that won't have the kids laughing and pointing at you when you visit their village (although sometimes that's inevitable no matter what you wear).
