In reply to UKC Gear:
they re brilliant and I really rate the thigh vents for hot days they can make (to my expereience) a hell of a difference.
the lower zips make it easier for me to roll up the legs - but there is no button/popper/loop to secure them
I wish they did them in better /solid colours though as thye are a great travle trouser as well.
the zip off versionare also good, no thigh vents (you can use the zips
as vents) and come in solid grey pattern
customer service is also great, replaced a pair where the zip had bust and replaced a belt that i trashed (melted it !!)
no relation to montane but very happy customer.
