Great buy!
I bought these for a 15day day hike in Northern Territory, Aust. I wanted long, lightweight pants that I could wear everyday to protect myself from the sun. I got a black pair and was a little worried I would get too hot in them, but I loved them. Even when we were walking in the afternoon sun I never felt too hot in the pants, but I hate having the feeling of the sun burning my skin. I literally wore them everyday for 15 days, would rinse them off every 2nd day or so and they would dry quickly - the waist band took longer to dry, but not an issue when it is 30deg! I did fall onto a sharp rock once & got quite a dash in my knee, but the pants stayed intact & meant my wound had no dirt in it. On the cold evenings I would just wear thermal pants underneath them and then they acted a bit like a wind breaker. I'm a vet nurse & I'm thinking of getting a pair to work in as hair and water just brushes off them! My only issue is the waist band was a bit big for me, but they fitted comfortably around my thighs
