shopping:pants that dry fast

Where can I buy pants that will dry fast and yet have some style? Even though I AM a tourist, I don't want to LOOK like one nor do I want to look like I am a superjock - I'm just not that sporty, in general.

So which companies do you buy your 'dry-fast', comfortable clothing from?

Look for microfiber; Liz Claiborne has some nice ones. A good catalogue is TravelSmith.

If you wear Depends, you won't have to worry about how fast your pants dry!

Almost all men's clothing lines have slacks made of microfiber -- Haggar, Docker's, Savane, etc. These dry quickly and mostly wrinkle free.

If you are going into a warm climate, and want something casual, you might consider the quick drying nylon slacks that are available from Travelsmith and (I believe) REI, Sierra Trading and others.
