Travel Clothing - Woolrich Women's Travel Capri Pants Review

Woolrich Women's Travel Capri Pants

The Bottom Line

A sweet travel capri from Woolrich meant for moving, these convertibles are the pair of pants you'll reach for on vacation. The smooth "island cotton" fabric is soft but sturdy and the legs zip off when more sun is sought.
Pros
  • Cargo pocket on lower leg
  • Quick drying
Cons
  • Smallest size (6) runs large

Guide Review - Travel Clothing - Woolrich Women's Zip Off Capri Pants

Convertible pants are the cat's meow on the road: one pair of pants turns into two when you zip off the legs to create shorts. Woolrich makes a few convertible numbers -- beachcombing beckons with their seaworthy capri convertibles.

The flattering hip waist on these cute capris, part of Woolrich's "Guide" line, move a pair of practical travelers into the style zone. Cool island cotton, so named because of its original Caribbean cultivation, means a long shelf life: you'll have to work at ripping this deceptively soft fabric. Back pocket is fairly deep; a lower cargo pocket stashes shells and keys.

I wore a pair of the Guide capris with such frequency on a recent Acapulco adventure that a lesser trouser would have bitten the sand. They're a very decent buy - enjoy!
