Review: Hiking Pants and Shirt - Kuhl

KUHL pants and shirt

Kuhl recently sent me Silencer Convertible hiking pants and a stealth short sleeve shirt to review. I jumped at the chance to wear the pants and shirt when we did the famous Fence Post Peak hike at China Date Ranch. 

The Pants

I love these pants! They are good looking, extremely comfortable, and they allow plenty freedom of movement. 
Technical features:

• 62% Mechanical Stretch Polyester, 38% Recycled Polyester

• Nine pockets provide secure storage

• STEALTH™ patented zip-off system

• Gusseted crotch for freedom of movement

• Zipper at bottom hem for ease of changing into short

• DWR finish

• UPF 50​ ​​

Kuhl uses a new innovative softshell technology that creates more stretch without Spandex and will not sag or bag, so you look great in them. You can wear these pants around town! 

​The pants feature a 4-way stretch so you can climb without any worries. They have a full fit through the thigh, knee and lower leg.

The rip stop fabric helps resists rips. (The pants can rip if abused enough. ) No worries ripping the pants while hiking through brush, rock, especially limestone, is a different story and might cause rips.

The pants have a whopping nine pockets to store tons of small items. Most pockets have zippers so your gear will be there when you need it.

All of the buttons are metal buttons. No worries about losing a button out in the backcountry. 

You can easily zip off the bottoms; you now have 10" shorts with plenty of pockets! 

The pants also have a zipper at the bottom hem to make it easier to take the pants off, even over hiking boots/shoes.

The Shirt

I love this shirt also. It looks good and feels good.  
The shirt features wrinkle and order resistant with two chest pockets and      there's even a hidden security pocket.

There's plenty of room to move as the shirt offers a wide back, for those with big lats.
