Regatta Geo Extol II TRS

£46.00

These were quite a nice surprise – a pair of trousers with a technical climbing/walking look befitting of more expensive models. The off-coloured knee patches may not be to everybody’s taste, but they do add more movement to the legs, helping with bending and hill-climbs. They could do with being a little more reinforced however, as they do seem to ...

Made from a tough polyamide/spandex blend, the Kiwi Pros feel as agile and comfortable as the name suggests. The fabric is lightweight and stretches easily with leg movement for maximum comfort and agility on tough hillwalks. They’ve also been treated with Craghoppers SolaDry sun protection, and a water-repellent finish which will make sure they stay dry in a shower. And ...

Sprayway Rio

£40.00

Classically designed trousers made from a polycotton fabric with a soft outer finish. The waist is semi-elasticated and comes with a belt so you can fine-tune things if needed. The fabric feels reassuringly tough, although there’s no stretch in it, so they’re less comfortable to walk in than some. They’ve got some nice features, though, including drawcords at the ankles ...

Peter Storm Hopeful Stretch

£40.00

Very lightweight trousers with a bit of added stretch for comfort. There are toggle adjusters at the waist to fine-tune the fit, and belt loops if you wear a belt. They’ve got a flattering straight-leg cut, and the fabric glides easily across the skin, making them feel comfortable to walk in. They’ve got a decent water-repellent finish so they won’t ...

Craghoppers Nosilife Cargo Shorts 2011

£46.00

The Craghoppers Nosilife Cargo Shorts’ nylon fabric feels tough and durable, and it is fast-drying, making it excellent for those who want to wear shorts during rain showers. But the real benefit of this fabric is that it is treated with Nosilife to keep the biting bugs away. This is a permanent insect repellent so it won’t wash out over ...

Gelert Venture Short 2011

£35.00

The Gelert Venture Short is made from four-way stretch fabric, rather than just two-way stretch. This makes these incredibly comfy when scrambling about outdoors. They also have a high-rise back, which is ideal for hot days with a rucksack as it prevents this area becoming sore due to sweat from a lumbar pad even when you bend over. The waist ...

Sprayway Compass (male)/Escape (female) 2011

£30.00

The fabric used in the Sprayway Compass / Escape shorts is two-way stretch so they are great if you struggle with getting a good fit. There is also stretch in the waist so again these can expand around a tubby tum or hug a neater waistline. There is no belt provided but you get belt loops in case you want ...

Technicals Travel Short 2011

£30.00

For £30 I wasn’t expecting much, but the reality is that not only is the price great, but so is the product. The Technicals Travel Short is made from ripstop nylon, so it doesn’t soak up water when you sit on a wet bit of grass and they doesn’t tear when you sit on rock. They’ve antibacterial and antimosquito treatments ...

Keela Paraguay/Rio Zip Off Trouser 2010

£40.00

It would be easy to assume that for £40 you would not get very good trousers. But the Keela Paraguay/Rio Zip Off Trousers are superb, and far more impressive than their price suggests. The big advantage is the fabric, which is a lightweight stretch nylon. This makes the trousers incredibly comfortable while retaining a conventional style. The waist is elasticated ...

Regatta Geo Extol Zip-Off 2010

£30.00

At under half the price of some comparable trousers, the Regatta Geo Extol Zip-Off is clearly going to be a favourite in terms of cost. But this is more than a low-priced product, as it also has plenty of practical features that allow it to compete with the best here. The fabric is quick-drying nylon as with higher-priced trousers.

Regatta Geo Extol

£45.00

Flattering and versatile trousers that are a great choice for UK hillwalkers. The slimline, low-rise fit looks great both on and off the hill, and is extremely comfortable too. The fabric feels reassuringly tough, resists water and wind very well, and dries really quickly too. There is a zip-access mesh panel on each thigh – perfect when you want some ...

Made from a lovely, soft, lightweight fabric that is best-suited to warm conditions. The cut is loose, with a baggy, straight-cut leg and a waistband that sits comfortably on the hips. The fabric proved wonderfully breathable, with a good DWR coating to keep them dry. The fabric also has a fast drying time. As a walking trouser, they are let ...

Hawkshead Walker

The waist band is high and rather small for the size stated, while the seat and thighs are much more generous. There is some elastic in the waist, and loops for a belt if you need one. Come in two leg lengths to help you get a good fit, and many will love the simple, uncluttered design. The fabric is ...

Craghoppers Nosi Safari 2010

£45.00

The Craghoppers Nosi Safari trousers felt loose and baggy – not the kind of thing I’d want to wear walking. But they do have plenty of technical features to warrant investing in them. They convert into shorts and there are zips at the ankles to get them on over your boots. They keep the mozzies away too and they have ...

Regatta Geo Tech 2010

£30.00

Regatta’s Geo Tech trousers are a good option for dedicated walkers, with articulated knees to aid freedom of movement and the option to zip off the legs. I noticed a bit of rubbing from the zip at the leg so it’s worth bearing this in mind when you try them on. There is a double lining around the rear: good ...

Craghoppers Classic Kiwi Zip-Offs

£40.00

Quite a traditional fit with a high waist and wide hips, the Kiwi comes with belt loops and a part-elasticated waist for comfort. The polycotton fabric is soft, yet tough and hard-wearing, repelled water well and offered lots of wind resistance. They took longer than some to dry, though. There is a huge array of pockets, including a large cargo ...
