Pure safari travel convenience: Safari Shorts & Safari Trousers in One! Ideal for all safaris, and ensures that you save on space and weight. Incredibly lightweight and comfortable.

What we say about this item of clothing:

Incredibly light, strong, comfortable trousers for your safari! Gone are the days of bulky, uncomfortable, cotton zip off trousers. These trousers make packing an easy task. When you get to deciding whether to take shorts or trousers, these Zip-Off trousers solve the problem! Wear these Zip-Offs as trousers in the mornings and evenings when it may be chilly, or if you are going to places such as the Masai Mara, which are high above sea level. As the day heats up, or for more active safaris, simply convert the trousers into shorts. Lots and lots of pockets for you to keep guide books, extra film, sunscreen, and so forth. Unlike other zip-off trousers, the shorts are so good we could sell them on their own! Please note that we recommend that you wear your zip-offs as trousers in the evenings, as part of your strategy against malaria. See our Insect Repellent page for more information.
