The North Face: Men's Meridian Convertible Pant

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).
