wanted: lightweight travel trousers

Anyone know where to get lightweight trousers/cargo pants which zip off at the calf for long shorts?

I'll be wearing them in 30 degrees 80%+ humidity, so emphasis on the lightweight.

help much appreciated.

Try any outdoor/adventure type store, they'll have them in all weights.

Blacks and places like that should do them. Summer's coming so they should have them in stock already.

Blimey, what are your dimensions? I've a 33in waist and 32 in/l, I have to suck in to wear mine yet there is still a good couple of inches to scrape under my heel.
