The Kuhl Liberator Convertible Pants redefine the convertible category with performance fabric and features. Cut from DRYPOINT fabric, this nylon-rich blend features a touch of cotton on the face for added breathability and comfort. UPF 40 and super quick dry, DRYPOINT provides sun protection and pulls moisture to the surface for speedy evaporation. Awarded the 2012 Editor's Choice Award, Backpacker Magazine said, "The Liberator has a trim, mountain-town style that slyly masks the two-in-one design. Mobility-enhancing spandex strips mimic the zipper lines, so they stand out less, and small slots swallow the zipper pulls. And for hikers who say the backcountry is no place to worry about looks - that function always trumps form - don't worry: The Liberator also packs a best-in-class array of clever technical features." Featuring Kuhl's Rhino Technology, the Liberator's rugged, non-stretch exterior is joined to mobility-enhancing stretch fabric in high mobility areas for both durability and skin-like flexibility. Articulated knees, gusseted crotch, and a full fit allow freedom of movement. Kuhl's standard 5-pocket design is combined with 2 zippered thigh pockets, a welt pocket on the left side, and a 3D cell phone pocket on the right side. With a bottom leg zipper for easy on/off, convert to 10.5-in. inseam shorts by zipping the pant legs off.
