Mountain & Hiking — Pants

Trekking pants take a beating that ordinary trousers were never built for, so the fabric and cut both need to earn their keep. A softshell pant with a DWR (durable water repellent) coating sheds light rain and brushes off morning dew, while a ripstop weave resists tearing on scrambles through scrub or rock. Articulated knees let you climb and scramble without the fabric pulling tight, and a zip-off leg turns a pair of pants into shorts mid-hike when the temperature climbs.

GearEurope's trekking pants come from brands built specifically for the outdoors, and every order ships free across Europe. Since trail conditions vary so much by season, our 14-day returns make it easy to switch to a lighter or heavier pair.
