David Keener's Review of Outdoor Research Equinox Convertible Pants - Men's
I recently purchased these, a Prana, and a White Sierra. All were convertible pants, all were 32x32.
My Pranas and White Sierras fit great. But the Outdoor Research Equinox was a bit big in the waist and a bit small in the inseam. Yes, the waist is adjustable, but there comes a point when the bunched-up waist can get a hair uncomfortable.
Now granted, I'm a stringbean. I could fit perfectly in 31" waist by 33" inseam. But nobody makes those. I would like to note, however, that my other two pairs of pants did have noticeably longer legs, like 1-2", despite being also rated as 32x32. And while I also have to snug the waistbands on those, it was slightly less of an adjustment compared to the Outdoor Research.
If I could, I'd mail the legs back separately for a pair of legs off a 34" inseam. But oh well. Its liveable.
These pants do seem quite comfortable in shorts form, so that's a plus
