HOW TO CHOOSE HIKING PANTS?

HOW TO CHOOSE HIKING PANTS?

Something very important you must keep in mind when buying hiking pants is knowing what activity you are going to use them for; pants for tropical climates are not the same as pants for summiting a snowy peak.

In our online store, you will find the following hiking pants:

  • Semi-waterproof elastic pants
  • Quick-dry pants
  • Waterproof pants
  • Snowproof pants
  • How do I know my size?

Let’s talk about these pants and their different uses! Each of them serves its own purpose, so get ready to learn about them in detail.

ELASTIC FABRIC HIKING PANTS

These pants are made of elastic material, which makes them very comfortable for walking. They are semi-waterproof and also contain no cotton, which is an advantage as they will dry quickly. These pants are recommended for people who will be using this garment constantly, because the material is a bit thicker than the others we have in our online store.


PROPERTIES OF THE ELASTIC FABRIC PANTS:

  • Color: The garment will not lose its colors easily when washed.
  • Resistant to sweat stains: As we said before, there is nothing worse than your favorite garment being stained by sweat.
  • Sun protection: UV +30 AATCC 183 standard.
  • Quick-dry: Since it is a very thin material, it will allow for faster drying, which is a great advantage when we go hiking or camping.
  • Semi-waterproof.

Dry weight: 456 grams. Wet weight: 646 grams.

Use: Recommended for short or long hikes.

QUICK-DRY HIKING PANTS

The fabric of these pants fits the needs of hiking pants much better, as the fabric has many more properties.

PROPERTIES OF THE QUICK-DRY PANTS:

  • Color: The garment will not lose its colors easily when washed.
  • Resistant to sweat stains: As we said before, there is nothing worse than your favorite garment being stained by sweat.
  • Sun protection: UV +30 AATCC 183 standard.
  • Quick-dry: Since it is a very thin material, it will allow for faster drying, which is a great advantage when we go hiking or camping.

Dry weight: 246 grams (200 grams less than the Basic pants). Wet weight: 482 grams.

Use: Recommended for short or long hikes, because if they were to get wet, they would dry very quickly.
