Paramo Merapi Active

£52.00

The first thing that makes the Merapis stand out against the other trousers in the test is the soft feeling of the fabric against the skin. Slipping into them, they feel incredibly comfortable, and lightweight too. That lightness makes them a good bet for warmer weather walking, as the air passes through well, and they are among the quickest drying. ...

Páramo Maui Cargo Shorts 2011

£47.00

You cannot beat a massive, practical pocket in a pair of shorts, and the Páramo Maui Cargo Shorts get two of them! On each leg there is a cavernous pocket that allows you to easily stash an OS map and a small guidebook with space to spare. There is a dedicated mobile phone pocket too. You also get a pair ...

Páramo Cascada Trouser 2011

£115.00

Páramo Cascada Trousers are an extremely popular solution to the age-old problem of knowing whether to wear waterproof trousers or not. Páramo trousers keep all but the most extreme rain out and so they can be worn all day in most conditions while keeping the wearer comfortable and dry. The trick is the fabric, which is extremely breathable yet it ...

Paramo Fuera Windproof

£56.00

Best described as a trouser version of a windshirt – light, breathable and extremely windproof. Like a windshirt, they work superbly over a base-layer, keeping the cold wind out, while getting rid of any perspiration fast. They don’t feel particularly comfortable, though, and any cold in the wind is felt where the fabric presses against the leg. Water resistance is ...

Páramo Azuma Active Pants 2010

£51.00

Made with material that’s easy to wash and dry, Páramo’s Azuma Active Pants are very practical trousers with extra venting at the thigh, and adjustable ankle closures. There’s a good belt and zipped pockets. Great for long days walking in hot countries, but not as flattering as others we looked at. Review by Clare SavageFirst published in Trail magazine April ...

Páramo Maui Cargo Trousers 2010

Páramo’s Maui Cargo Trousers are so Ray Mears they could whittle their own canoe. They are hugely functional with a hidden passport-sized zipped pocket, two large thigh pockets and an external multi-tool stash point. The material is cool, breathable and quick-drying but not as flimsy as others we looked at. The articulated knee makes them very comfortable. Review by Matt ...

Páramo Cascada

£100.00

Páramo’s best-selling trousers work a little differently to all other brands tested here. The Cascadas can be considered waterproof as their Nikwax Analogy fabric works to actively pump water (sweat included) from the inside to the outside. This means their heavier weight (528g) is more than made up for as you don’t having to carry waterproof trousers, which generally weigh ...

Paramo Cascada

£100.00

The Analogy fabric felt wonderfully soft and comfortable against the skin, but not as stretchy as some and the drawcord waist was fiddly. Good waterproofing and breathable, too. But quite hot, even with the leg zips open, and also quite heavy and not as easy to move in as some.VITAL STATSColours: Navy, dark grey, forestSizes: S-XXL (five leg lengths)Fabric: Nikwax ...

Páramo Maui Cargo Shorts

£45.00

These are extremely well-thought-out, rugged shorts that are lightweight and built for hill-walking and scrambling. Like everything from Páramo, they’re designed with moisture control in mind, using rapid-evaporation Parameta A fabric. These have plenty of secure pockets, jeans-style at the front (which may not appeal) and a variable hem. Made in VietnamUK stores 150(01892) 786444; www.paramo.co.uk

Páramo Cascada Trouser

£100.00

These featured in Trail’s waterproof trouser review too, but they are really soft shell trousers and so are ideal for use in any weather. Because of the nature of the fabric, and the design and construction, they will not only serve as really comfy, well-thought-out walking trousers but when it starts to rain they will also keep you dry and ...

Paramo Cascada

£100.00

These winter trousers from Paramo are a little long and baggy, but are incredibly comfortable next to the skin and lovely to move around in. A belt would be better than the drawcord adjuster, though. Not only really warm, but waterproof too, so they offer superb protection in bad weather. A little toasty for milder winter days perhaps, and not ...

Páramo Cascada Pant

£100.00

These women’s walking trousers have an elasticated waist with drawcord and belt loops; very water-resistant and breathable fabric that feels great on; three quarter length leg ventilation zip; press stud ankle cuff adjustment; well-cut with an articulated knee; two zipped hip pockets. But rather bulky and heavy; most would also find them too warm for year-round use; fabric has no ...

Páramo Merapi Vent

£50.00

These men’s walking trousers use beautifully soft fabric; zipped mesh vent in thigh; map-sized gusseted hip pockets; articulated knees; hidden zipped pocket; elasticated waist with belt. But black belt doesn’t match trousers and shouts ‘outdoor!’ and so isn’t cool; baggy cut is not ideal for the hill.

Paramo Cascada

£100.00

These Paramo Cascada pants are incredibly comfortable against the skin, but may be too long and too baggy – meaning mud quickly works its way up the insides of the legs. There’s only a basic drawcord adjuster at the waist. These are effectively waterproof trousers however, with the breathability of normal pants, so they’re superb in bad weather. They’re too ...

Paramo Merapi Vent

£50.00

The wonderfully soft Parameta fabric makes these a dream to wear. However, with no stretch, the cut is a little tight for really strenuous movement. The waist is elasticated and they come with a good webbing belt. Loose in the leg and light, these perform well in warm conditions, where vents make things even more comfortable. They are a little ...
