Patagonia: With Ventura-based Patagonia, you
get what you pay for. What you pay is a
lot. What you get is exactly what you
want. Patagonia’s gear and clothing
looks great, it works perfectly, and it is manufactured as ethically and
sustainably as reasonably possible.
Patagonia makes pants for every outdoor activity, from backpacking to
rafting to hiking to skiing. I do not yet own any Patagonia pants. But I do own a broad cross-section Patagonia
clothing and gear, all of which may very well last me forever.
North Face: Alameda-based North Face makes
pretty much everything an outdoors-enthusiast could want, including pants
outdoors-wear pants. Judging by
everything I’ve bought from North Face so far, they probably make their
outdoors-wear pants really well.
nice post
ReplyDeleteNorth Face has been my brand for years, and so is Rei and Columbia. These convertible pants are cool and very versatile. I think whoever thought about this gear is a genius! I love the fact that it is space-friendly and the ease of wearing it long or short is an added bonus. I recently saw some reviews of the top convertible pants, take a look: http://backpackingmastery.com/top-picks/best-convertible-pants.html
