Here's a useful review

http://www.grough.co.uk/magazine/2013/09/24/on-test-walking-trousers

Bergans of Norway Geita Pants came out tops (but pricey)


I also had a look at the Fjallraven website and liked the look of these.

Hey Liam,

I just bought a pair of these;

http://www.raymears.com/Bushcraft_Product/821-Fjallraven-Barents-Trousers-Dark-Olive/

About 10 minutes ago after seeing them on offer, they're £140 in some shops. The vidda-pro hydratic are the same as those above but have an added buckle thing at the bottom of the leg to act like gaiters. The problem I had with those is they don't come in my leg length and I'd look ridiculous if I cant take the leg up a bit.

Are you heading to the halloween camp? if so and you have those i'd love to have a poke at em and nosey to see what they are like. Had my eye on them for some time but having trouble picking exactly what silly expensive bush trousers I go for.

I'd love to, but I don't think the wife would be too happy if I left her alone with the baby. I'm still dropping hints though..lol
