Trekking pants

When choosing trekking trousers, you should first consider the fabric, which should be durable, breathable and quick-drying. Flexibility is crucial for free movement during your hikes. Check for features such as waterproofing or water resistance, UV protection and practical pockets with secure zips. RAG Tailors trekking trousers are designed with strategic reinforcements in areas of greatest wear, such as the knees and seat. Adaptability to the weather (convertible into shorts or with ventilation openings) and the comfort of the waistband (elastic or adjustable) are also decisive factors for an impeccable hiking experience.

Waterproof trekking trousers are made from fabrics that completely block the passage of water, offering complete protection against rain and humidity. They usually incorporate technical membranes that, in addition to blocking water, allow perspiration vapor to escape. Quick-drying trousers are designed with lightweight fabrics that, although they can get wet, dry extremely quickly. They are ideal for hot climates or high-intensity activities where perspiration is significant. At RAG Tailors, we offer both options, allowing you to choose depending on the type of outdoor activity and weather conditions you will face.

When choosing the right size for your trekking pants, consider that they should allow for a wide range of movement without being too loose. For long hikes, opt for a slightly looser fit than your usual pants, allowing you to wear a base layer underneath in cold weather. The length should be adequate to avoid dragging when wearing hiking boots. Test out movements such as squats and long strides when trying them on. RAG Tailors trekking pants are detailed in the size chart and incorporate adjustable features such as an elasticated waistband and drawstrings, ensuring comfort during long hikes in the wild.

To prolong the life of your trekking trousers, wash them strictly following the instructions on the label, generally with cold water and mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners that can compromise the technical properties of the fabric. Dry them outdoors, avoiding tumble dryers. For trousers with waterproof treatment, revive this property periodically with specific reactivation products. After each use, remove mud and surface dirt with a soft brush. Always store them clean and dry, away from direct sunlight. Small tears should be repaired immediately to prevent them from getting bigger. RAG Tailors products are designed for durability, but this care will maximize your investment.

For cold climates, softshell fabrics with inner lining provide thermal insulation without sacrificing mobility, while polyester with DWR (durable water repellent) treatment offers protection against snow and light rain. In warm environments, opt for lightweight fabrics such as nylon or polyamides with quick-drying technology and antibacterial treatment, ideally with built-in UV protection and ventilation openings. For extremely wet conditions, trousers with breathable waterproof membranes are essential. RAG Tailors’ range of trekking trousers includes these variants, with technical fabrics specifically selected to provide maximum performance in each environment, always maintaining the balance between protection, breathability and comfort.
