Heart-pumping switchbacks to hike, rushing streams to ford—all reasons to love the women’s REI Co-op Sahara convertible pants. You don’t even have to sit down to turn them into shorts!
Features
- Made with stretch recycled nylon that’s durable enough to handle switchback days on the trail and log-sitting nights around the campfire

- Low-bulk fabric with flatseam stitching not only prevents chafing, it also allows pants to pack down small
- Color-coded thigh zippers help you determine the right leg from the left leg when converting the shorts back to pants
- Vertical zippers from bottom hem to mid-thigh allow for more ventilation, and also let you remove pant legs without removing your shoes or boots
- UPF 50+ fabric shields against harmful UV rays
- Elastic back waistband allows you to move freely and comfortably
- Drawstring waist lets you dial in the fit
- Loaded with pockets for essentials, including front hand pockets, back pockets and cargo pockets (1 zippered)

- Zip fly with button closure
- Made to reflect our love for people and the planet through the use of recycled nylon and bluesign®-approved materials
