Whats with all the cropped women's hiking pants???
This is driving me nuts - why are so many women hiking pants cropped at the ankle? I went to REI the other day and tried on about 8 different pairs of pants and none of them were full length. As someone that works in the field this is super frustrating, as ankle length just means getting vegetation and ticks in my shoes and socks, cold ankles, and imo looks a bit silly with hiking boots on? I know there ARE some options, just seems like the vast majority aren't full length.
Does anyone else feel frustrated by this? Who is making these decisions and who can we complain to hahah #activity #hiking source
