Another product article for Nepal πŸ™‚ - this time it is about trousers.

By default, I use Vaude Farley Stretch Pants II (46/XS) and I love them. They are super light. If it is raining cats and dogs, I use Marmot Precip Full Zip (S/P).

Features

  • Zip-Off: Make them shorter in case it is warm
  • Breathability: See Hardshell Jackets
  • Side vents: Open the trousers if it is hot
  • Flexibility: Can you move enough?
  • Pockets: Front, ass, knee
  • Gaiter hooks (Schnürsenkelhaken): Allows you to "mount" the trousers on your shoes to prevent snow / rain from getting inside.

Overview

The ones with green background color were recommended for Nepal.
