stitching sub-standard
single-stitch easily tears, creating holes. TNF going cheap. Used to use double-stitch for durability.

TNF lowers quality standards
Same issue as the other 1-star. Noticed 2 holes along the seam in the back. In more recent years, TNF has chosen to single-stitch their seams instead of older double-stitch for durability.

Didn't even make it to fish in them :(
The seam in the back beside the zipper ripped on multiple pairs. I don't know if I just have defective pairs? Third pair ripped today and each pair has done the same thing. Less than week. Please help

Don't buy it!
I recently bought this pair of pants—the first one I got had a small tear in the stitching, right below the zipper in the front. I returned it to the store and they gave me a new one. Unfortunately, after wearing the new pair only twice, the same issue appeared again: a tear in the same spot. Now, two months later, I've had to sew it twice already, and today I'm about to fix it for a third time. It's a shame, because The North Face is supposed to be a high-quality brand. In this case though, I'm really disappointed.

2 in 1 piece of wardrobe
Bought these for golfing and fishing! Very comfortable and making these pants into shorts is a plus!

Not suited for me
North Face made a mistake with these pants. As a avid long distance thru hiker, they do not hold up.The old model of pants were nearly bomb proof.I have worn same old style pants for three seasons of long distance thru hiking.
