Customer Reviews Columbia Silver Ridge™ Convertible Pant

Top button was not attached to material

They are OK. They aren’t very stylish at all, I wore them once and probably won’t wear them again. I don’t recommend these pants.

The seam came out in one of the back pockets. I can ship them back for repair but that will take 2-4 weeks and I have already paid for shipping once. Not sure they are worth the hassle.

Nice product, terrible shipping experience. The pansts are awesome but the shipping experience was a nightmare, thanks to the use of USPS, they never give accurate info, give false confirmation of delivery, miss the package for few days finally deliver it a week after of several claims and protests

The pants are made of an extremely sturdy material that will last a very long time. However, when I first bought these pants I purchased them in a 32" waste - which is my normal size. When they arrived, they got my waste perfectly but were incredibly tight around my thighs. I returned them and purchased a 34" size thinking that they weren't going to be as tight - but unfortunately I was wrong. They were slightly less tight but still pretty snug. The material doesn't have much stretch at all - so the tightness is really uncomfortable and really limits your mobility. I do have a somewhat muscular build and my thighs are rather large for my size. So if you have a muscular lower body I would stray away from these pants. Nonetheless, if you're pretty skinny then these would be the best pants you'd own:

Inseam smaller than advertised. Bought 32" inseam and inseam measures 31".

I had a pair of this product so thought of buying another couple just to balance between them. I unfortunately didn't like the very light materials that the pants were made of, & the waste along with the zippers are bad quality. overall, It used to be a really good product & I really enjoyed the old version of it.

Really want to love these pants, look nice feel great and are perfect for my work. however just after two weeks with about 3 wears the seam on the back pocket has come UN-stitched. I love Columbia products but hate to say this is not the first to just fall apart on me.

I like the quality of these pants--wicking, breathable, light enough for summer wear. But none of this is very good if the sizing is off. I always wear a size 30/30 but the waist on these pants is more like a 28/29. I could button them up, but they felt too tight across the front and not enough space in the groin. I would recommend these pants if you plan to get a size 2 inches bigger on the waist than usual. I hope Colombia can exchange my pants for the same style in a size larger.

Pants feel and work great. Unfortunately, after only one use the stitching of the back pockets and other areas of the pants has started to become undone. Very disappointing for this product in this price range.

Ordered these pants in 5 colors. Each pair of pants were suppossed to be the same size. The length varied as much as two inches between the colors. Not happy that I had to take them to a tailor.

Purchased two pair Columbia convertible pants in 2009. Since then, I have searched high and low in various sporting goods and clothing stores to no avail for something that matched those excellent pants. I wore those convertibles 12 mos. per year (winter in AZ), almost every day. I took them on three trips to Australia and wore them exclusively. I still have one pair left, but wanted one or two more. Took a chance on-line and ordered one pair from Columbia. I will wear them around the house but they do not come close to matching the quality that Columbia used to sell. They are baggy, have a riveted front button which will not stand the test of time, and only one zippered cargo pocket. The "original" convertibles had two zippered rear pockets, and a zippered key pocket. Unlike the new pair, they fit comfortably, and were slimmer in the legs. My "originals" wore like iron. I'll have to see how long these last, but I know I won't wear them as often. Will have to search for other makes in the future. Columbia quality has suffered, probably due to increased costs to make them like they used to. For what they cost me, I am not satisfied.

Orderd an XS and I was swimming in it (no pun intended).

Nice looking pant, put runs small and needs more room in the seat area. Also, the survey request email was sent too early. My husband saw the email on Christmas morning, so he already knew what he was getting before he opened it. Keep trying.

These pants are generally awesome with the exception on two things. First, the pants are way too tight in the crotch area, it is as if they chose one place to skimp on proportionally sizing the pair of pants and that was it. The second thing is that the threading around the crotch area is pretty poor, I have worn my pants twice and the seams are starting to come undone, this just seems like poor craftsmanship. I have a friend who has the same type of pants and the same thing is also happening with his pair. This just shows me that these products aren't really built to last and are overpriced for what you do get.

Weong size. Need 36 waist and 30 inseam.

Zipper broke on pocket second time worn. Will be returned. Hopefully second pair will last. Comfortable fit and good utility

Attempted to alter size due to an error in online purchase after only 6 minutes and was denied my request.

These are the worst pants I've ever owned. I bought two pair expecting them to be durable but since owning them the seams always seem to tear on all of the pockets. The back pockets developed holes in them pretty quickly, the side pocket on the right leg completely tore side ways, and in the left waist pocket there is another hole. I've been sewing them back together but they keep tearing. They look nice and are probably nice to wear around town but I wouldn't recommend going hiking or doing any work in them. 05/27/2023

The front pockets have a steep slit that goes way too far down so that things can fall out of the pockets too easily and they are a pickpockets dream. Otherwise, these are excellent pants. However, I'm going to return them. Pockets like this are unsuitable for rugged outdoor use. I'm surprised that Colombia would make a piece of clothing with such a serious design flaw.

too long... how come your 30" length isn't the same as every other pair of pants i've ever owned? Very frustratng. i'm busy - working 60 hours a week... now i gotta send it back? How bout you make 30" length 30 inches. and save me some time.

Quality of thread that goes around the buttons are very poor ; thread are all already coming out with u close and open the button . End up returning

I bought these pants because I had just purchased the same item 2 weeks previously and that pair fit great. So I ordered the same exact size/style/item number. The only difference was the color. However, the new pants were far smaller and fit differently overall. Amazing inconsistency!! Sent them back, and paid the shipping both ways. Very dissappointing.

I have bought 3 pairs, easy to tear, pocket tears open, lost a wallet two times when bottom back pocket tore in two sets of pants, also button latch popped out of material. Gonna refrain from buying these anymore, try the north face paramount pants, much better quality around same price

Meh, not a fan. Feel like cheap plastic pants. $45, i guess you get what you pay for.
