The weather can change quickly when you're in the mountains. The Kuhl Liberator convertible pants let you adapt to changing conditions and stay comfortable.

Recognizing this 2012 Editors’ Choice Award winner, the April issue of BACKPACKER says, “The Liberator has a trim, mountain-town style that slyly masks the two-in-one design.”
Pants convert quickly and easily to shorts with leg zippers; zippers won't snag and are hidden from view for a great look
Fabric blend places cotton on the outside and nylon next to skin; soft cotton pulls moisture away from the nylon, bringing it to the surface where it can evaporate
Liberator pants feature Kuhl Rhino Technology, which places rugged exterior fabrics on top of soft, stretchy fabric for excellent durability and freedom of movement
Rhino Technology is used in high-mobility areas, such as the back waistband and the knees
Standard 5-pocket design combines with 2 zippered thigh pockets, a welt pocket on the left side and a 3D cell phone pocket on the right side to stow all your essentials
The Kuhl Liberator convertible pants have a gusseted crotch and articulated knees that facilitate freedom of movement for increased comfort

Comments about Kuhl Liberator Convertible Pants - Men's 34" Inseam:

"When you pack gear that does double duty, you save weight and hike farther. Duh. But when multi-tasking efficiency has been applied to the pants-converting-into-shorts category, we've found the benefit offset by the dork factor. Until now. The Liberator has a trim, mountain-town style that slyly masks the two-in-one design. Mobility-enhancing spandex strips mimic the zipper lines, so they stand out less, and small slots swallow the zipper pulls. And for hiker who say the backcountry is no place to worry about looks—that function always trumps form—don't worry: The Liberator also packs a best-in-class array of clever technical features. The fabric is 77 percent nylon and 23% cotton—the nylon is next to the skin, and the cotton is on the outer surface, lending a softer feel and greater durability, "If there's a lag in dry time, I can't tell," says one tester after wetting the lower legs during an early-winter creek crossing. "And there are no signs of wear, snags or pilling after four months of regular use." A gusseted crotch and thin, horizontal bands of spandex above the back pockets and below the articulated knees ensure flexibility for high stepping and crouching. Spandex backing on every pocket securely cradles items stowed there, decreasing flop and sway. Transitioning from pants to shorts and back takes a minute or less, thanks to a foot-long, snap-closed cuff zipper that fits over all but the biggest winter or alpine boots our testers wore. Summed up one editor: "For three-season backpacking, this is my new go-to pair of pants. And shorts." " ~ From the 2012 Editor's Choice Award article from BACKPACKER MAGAZINE
