The Patagonia Men's Quandary Convertible Pants are versatile hiking pants with stretch, zip-off legs and 50+ UPF sun protection, made of lightweight nylon/spandex fabric.

Light and technical, the Patagonia Men's Quandary Convertible Pants provide an ideal blend of convenience and performance when you need the coverage of pants combined with the cool comfort of shorts. They’re made of a strong, lightweight and quick-drying 95% nylon (65% recycled)/5% spandex fabric with a weather-resistant DWR (durable water repellent) finish to resist moisture. The zip-off legs have contrasting zippers to make on/off quick and easy. The curved waistband follows the contours of your hips for a personalized fit, while a gusseted crotch allows a full range of motion. They have front handwarmer pockets (right one has a coin pocket), two rear pockets and a right-thigh pocket with a security zipper so you know exactly where you put your keys. Details include wide, reinforced belt loops, zip fly with metal web-button closure and 50+ UPF sun protection. Inseam of shorts is 10".

bluesign® Approved Fabric

Patagonia has worked with bluesign technologies since 2000 to evaluate and reduce resource consumption in our materials supply chain, and to assist us with managing the chemicals, dyes and finishes used in the process. bluesign technologies, based in Switzerland, works at each step in the textile supply chain to approve chemicals, processes, materials, and products that are safe for the environment, safe for workers, and safe for the end customers.

In 2007, Patagonia became the first brand to officially join the network of bluesign® system partners.

Any fabric you see that’s bluesign® approved offers the highest level of consumer safety by employing methods and materials in their manufacture that conserve resources and minimize impacts on people and the environment.

Water Resistant

DWR (durable water repellent) fabric finish repels light rain and snow and decreases dry times. When DWR is used in conjunction with a waterproof/breathable barrier, the DWR finish keeps the outer fabric from becoming saturated so that the breathable barrier can do its job.

Outdoor Gear Lab, Best Buy Award

Mount Quandary is the monarch of the Tenmile Range in Colorado. It looms over the ski town of Breckenridge, and might just be the most popular 14er in the state. Because of a well-maintained trail to the summit, hikers during the summer rarely need more than a robust set of lungs and legs, but appropriate clothing certainly helps. We recommend the Patagonia Quandary as the perfect pair of pants for tackling an ascent of its namesake mountain, or any one of the other 53 official 14er summits in Colorado. Its lightweight, trim-fitting blend of recycled nylon and spandex offers the wearer ultimate freedom and mobility while doing a more than admirable job of warding off wind and light rain. It has a simple yet functional array of pockets that offers less room for a map or snacks than some others, but also won't slow down your ideal hiking pace. Best of all, this pant was the most affordable in our review, and as one of the best that we have worn, it earned our Best Bang for the Buck Award. Outdoor Gear Lab, 2018
