Customer Reviews The North Face Paramount Peak Convertible Pant

I'm really enjoying wearing my North Face pants. They are a comfortable weight, the pockets are nice and deep, I like the zippable pocket on the right side, I like having the cargo pockets on the legs, the convenience of being able to zip off the lower legs is great. I was afraid the zip around the leg might be annoying, but it has turned out to not be an issue. I have used the shorts for riding my recumbent bicycle and have been pleased at how little they "balloon" in the wind. The only two things I would change if I could are 1) the way they pull across the front (probably because my body is not quite the right shape) and 2) make the integrated belt removable. It's nice having an integrated belt so I don't have to remember another one, but sometimes I'd like to wear another one with these pants and that's not really an option since I can't get the integrated belt out of the way without cutting it. Overall, I really like these pants a lot. I expect to be buying more.

Great product. Would highly recommend. Great for travel and hiking. I bought another pair already.

I love these pants. Bought a 2nd pair as a backup. I'm probably going to buy a 3rd. I was impressed with the overall quality of these pants. Great material, well made, abundance of pockets, ease of converting to shorts even with boots on. They're light but still provide considerable warmth is lower temperatures. Color coded zippers on the legs make it mindless to reattach the leg pieces.

A couple months ago I decided it was time to replace my pants wardrobe. I bought a few brands to try them out for a while. These pants are the winner of the trial because they fit well, they move well (for example, I do yoga in them), they have pockets that are roomy and reachable and keep stuff in them securely, they launder well, they hang well on the body (for a quick-dry nylon), and they seem to be sturdily made (though it will take years to get a definitive reading on long-term durability). I am now buying more pairs of these in multiple colors as they become available on Zappos. They will become part of my daily uniform. I have not yet tried them in warm weather, so I'm taking something of a risk by adopting them, but the fabric does breathe well so I'm not too worried about what I will learn come summer.

These are the most comfortable pair of pants I've ever warn. The fit to size and are good looking. Zappos is the greatest place to buy, I'm always happy with their efficiency and aim to please.

Love these pants! Fit perfectly, great quality and look good too. Have since ordered another pair in grey. Love the service with Zappos!

I normally have a problem with how pants fit me since I have big "sprinters quads". These pants fit great! Overall, a better fit, design and color than their predecessor. Can be dressed down as shorts and up as pants, perfect for travelers who pack light. As always, great customer service from Zappos!

These have a great fit. The length is good, that has always been an issue with other zip offs.

Excellent britches, high quality material and workmanship and now own 3 pair. Only thing I wear when it's hot and need long pants. Bottom leg zips off and back in easily. Good value.

Very comfortable and roomy. Nice that the pant bottoms have the extra zipper to get them off over your boots / sneakers. Most of all the short version makes for a much better fit length wise. I'm 5'8 and they're just right.

Thank you for offering this high quality item from a well established manufacturer. Not only did they come to our home with lightning speed (thank you Zappos), they were of very good quality.

I love these pants! This is my 7th pair of Paramount Peak Convertibles. Here's what I love about them: 1. They are comfortable, loose enough to climb or mountain bike in. 2. The length of the shorts works well for days when I'm wearing a climbing harness. 3. The boot zippers on the legs allow me to keep my shoes on when I switch to shorts. 4. Cargo pockets hold plenty. And more. Great pants and I'll probably buy another pair when these wear out!

We have been looking for this type of pants for my husband for a long time. My husband is ecstatic with the comfort and sporty good looks which are way better than the warmup pants he has been using for that purpose. I bought another pair and intend to buy an additional one. He sure looks great in them. Another great plus for me is the easy care.

These pants are very comfortable, lightweight, have and excellent selection of pockets, switch between long pants and short pants in seconds plus my girlfriend says I look cute in them.

My husband absolutely loves these pants. He likes being able to remove the pant legs when the weather warms up during the day, without having to carry a separate pair of shorts and changing into them. He has gotten several more pairs after trying the first one, in different colors. The zipper does eventually stop working, and then he just uses them as shorts.

Great pants. Lots of pockets. Comfortable fit. Durable. Look good. Easy care. What more could one ask?

Although I'm a bigger fan of the THF products of long, long ago before they were so fashionable, I have to say I love these pants and have three pair. I spend between 40-60 nights a year on the trails and the water in a tent, not including dayhikes and the like. These pants are comfortable, functional and the convertable zippers have never given me a problem. The seams are all good and they wash up incredibly well. I'm very impressed with this garment.

I purchased these pants for my husband to wear on a trip to Egypt. We just got back, and these pants were a winner. They were comfortable and he loved all the pockets. He had a little trouble unzipping them, but no big deal. One thing, he was not crazy about was the belt, will proably eventually take it out. Why the internal belt and belt loops? Not sure, but he did really like the pants. Only gave 4 stars for style because of the belt.

Bought this pair of pants for my husband - he loves them, wearing all the time. He says, comfortable, flexible-shorts or pants. Would recommend. Quality of North Face very evident! I was impressed with free shipping and 2 day service!

The pants are long (for me), so I have to roll the cuff. And the cuff won't stay because of the weight of the zipper at the bottom.

I have 3 pairs of the prior version of these pants (purchased in 2008-2009), and 2 pairs of the current version. My only criticism of the current version is that the material quality, although softer than the prior version, pills and has worn thin in the crotch area. I don't plan to buy any more of these pants, and have switched to another brand.
