Gear Review: Royal Robbins Men’s Zip N Go Pants
The Royal Robbins Zip N’ Go Pants were another on sale item that have been one of my best clothing purchases to date. Light weight quick drying zip off pants that I have put through pretty much every test I cant think of excluding hiking for 2184 miles.
The material is made from 3-Ply Laundered Supplex®. They are quick drying, wrinkle resistant and does not retain odor.Another feature of the fabric is that it is UPF 50+. These pants have plenty of pockets and they are accessible and functional as well.
A cool feature that I did not know about until researching for this review was that they have a special pocket that you can put the leg sections you just zipped off and it will connect to your belt loops. For those of you are vertically challenged like myself the hem of the pants have a loop and buttons to adjust the size of the hem to keep you from walking on them.
Overall a great pair of pants. I am excited to really put them through the test and see how many miles I can get in on them.
What are you favorite pair of hiking / backpacking pants or shorts? Whats the best part you like about them?
Happy Trails.
