I knew you would at least look!!!
But this is gear related:

I need new hiking pant. I think this topic was up once before but I can't find it and it would be outdated anyways.

I need pants that fit. It can't touch the belly botton or go above the belly botton.

I have only one pair that fits like that, and strangly it's columbia brand. I want a different color...something... new pants...

I know I can't be the only one out there that don't like pants that touch the belly botton.

(and no!!! they don't need to be hip huggers)

Gem, I have the same problem! I cant wear those columbia ones - they dont fit right. The REI pants go way above the belly button, and I havent been able to find any others that are just right.

What's the problem with fabric hitting a bb? Phobia? Maybe there is finally an advantage to a dickie doo belly?

Gem, do you have BB ring and the pants wear against it..if so take it out while hiking
Ewker

Nope, it's not a phobia. LOL

too bad you can't see the stickers.

Ewker, I could, but it's sort of a good luck thing...it's the very first thing I ever got as a present from my son. I am weird like that.

Bison, really? you ARE planning to finish your trip too right? No jail time or anything like that? LOL

Just curious if all of your western adventures are still on. Those are gonna be great, if so.

Naked hiking with packs sounds, uh, not comfortable. Gem has problems with pants messing with her bb ring, think what a hip belt would do.

That reminds me of an old Lewis Grizzard bit.

naked - you're not wearing any clothes
nekkid - spelled N - E - Double K by God - I - D means you ain't no clothes on and you're up to sumthin'.

Um, I think boys pants are gonna fit even worse than girls pants. We need some suggestions from women TTers here!

My wife has only hiked with me in shorts, but I can see it probably being an issue for her too. She's the same height as the two of you, maybe shorter.
