Comments about REI Sahara Convertible Pants - Men's 36'' Inseam:
Great product. Have been searching all over the internet to find convertible pants that will fit a 6'8" frame. So far I have found REI and one other that make extended sizes for tall people. These pants fit great and whats better is that they still look like shorts on me when I zip off the bottoms. The inseam in the shorts is much longer than I anticipated which is good bc I prefer longer shorts. Go and get these pants !

Comments about REI Sahara Convertible Pants - Men's 36'' Inseam:
These are the best fitting backpacking/hiking pants I have ever owned! I am 6'6" so it is VERY difficult to find pants that actually reach my sock line. When the pants legs are zipped off, the shorts even reach my knees! If you ate your spinach when you were a kid, these are the pants for you! They are also very lightweight and comfortable. Highly recommended!

Comments about REI Sahara Convertible Pants - Men's 36'' Inseam:
REI - You used to make this in black [...] and give us a better more durable fly zipper! And don't skimp on the fabric. You have a good product here, make it better like it was seven years ago. Love you REI.Thanks!RW

Comments about REI Sahara Convertible Pants - Men's 36'' Inseam:
I mainly rated these so highly since they're one of the few hiking pants offered by REI which fit those with long legs [...] Besides the good fit though, I also found them comfortable, lightweight and quick drying.

Comments about REI Sahara Convertible Pants - Men's 36'' Inseam:
These pants fit great and I loved the combination of features (zip-off legs, pockets, etc.) when I bought them. Unfortunately after a few weeks I started to have problems with some of the zippers, and finally one of them completely jammed. I had to destroy the pants to get my wallet out of the pocket with the jammed zipper.

Comments about REI Sahara Convertible Pants - Men's 36'' Inseam:
These are okay pants, but i have had quite a few zippers fail on them. I mean, within a few months. Definitely a gamble: If the zipper doesn't break, you're good to go; if the zipper fails in two months, you're private parts will be pretty visible and you will be out [$].

I'm long legged, finding the longer inseam lengths was great. Fit was good, pants were more wind resistant than expected.

Comments about REI Sahara Convertible Pants - Men's 36'' Inseam:
Zip-off pants are great, these are lightweight, comfortable and long enough! I use them for travel (they dry really fast), hiking (long pants for mosquitos and sun, zip off for hot days), and around-town casual pants (stylish! I get complements.)
REI guys! Don't stop making 36" pants!
