Product Insights
This Cecilie Bahnsen x The North Face pant merges high-fashion floral detailing with hiking utility: a tone-on-tone floral print and flower cord locks identify the design, while waterproof 80 g/m² ripstop with seam-taped interior and DWR finish, plus hidden knee zippers that convert the pant into 9-inch shorts, deliver outdoor functionality. The main tradeoff is that the non-stretch, tear-resistant ripstop requires intentional movement, but a regular fit and high waist help maintain freedom of movement, and sizing up is recommended for a looser silhouette.

Deep Research
How the fitted cut works for movement
- At 80 g/m², the nylon ripstop is light enough that the trousers won’t feel heavy or swampy during a long approach, yet the ripstop weave adds tear resistance for scrambling through branches.
- The trousers are built with a seam-sealed, fully seam-taped interior and a DWR finish, so they’re genuinely waterproof — you can hike through wet brush or a sudden downpour without the nylon soaking through, unlike untreated fashion ripstop.
- The hidden zippers quickly convert the trousers into 9-inch shorts, a modular feature that lets you adapt to temperature shifts mid-hike without carrying an extra pair — it’s a practical detail borrowed from hiking pants.
- Elasticated cuffs combined with an adjustable drawcord hem let you cinch the leg opening tight to your ankle, which stops the hems from dragging on muddy trails or catching on undergrowth.
- Despite the ‘fitted’ styling descriptor in some listings, The North Face classifies the cut as 'Regular fit' — meaning the trousers offer enough room through the leg for comfortable movement, a step-up in practicality for active wear compared to a true slim-cut fashion pant.
- The slightly high rise helps the waistband sit above a pack’s hip belt without pinching, while the internal drawstring lets you fine-tune the fit so the trousers stay put on an active day.
- Because the fabric is a non-stretch, waterproof laminate, the regular fit cut is what gives the trousers walking room — the elastic waist and drawcord mean you can fasten them securely without needing stretch, a design choice that prioritizes weather protection over elastic mobility.

Q&A
4 answered- Is the fit true to size? I usually wear a medium in The North Face pants – would I need a different size in this collaboration?
- The pants are described as a "fitted style," so they fit more snugly than typical The North Face pants, which often have a relaxed fit. We recommend checking the size conversion table; you may want to size up for a looser fit.
- How do the removable legs attach? Can they be taken off while wearing the pants, or is it a permanent alteration?
- The removable legs attach via zippers, as described in the features ("removable zippered legs"). They can be taken off while wearing the pants by unzipping them, allowing you to convert them easily.
- What are the care instructions? Can it be machine washed, or does it require special cleaning for the waterproof coating?
- Care instructions are not provided in the product listing. Generally, for waterproof ripstop fabrics, we recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners, and tumble drying on low or air drying to preserve the waterproof coating.
- How noticeable is the floral print? Is it subtle tone-on-tone or more visible in natural light?
- The floral print is tone-on-tone, meaning the flowers match the base fabric color closely. It is subtle and understated, becoming more noticeable in natural light but never loud.
