Technical trekking tights in a functional stretch fabric, combining the freedom of movement of tights with the durability of a pair of trekking trousers. With reinforcements over the rear and knees to handle close contact with sharp stones and rocks and also resist moisture if you sit or kneel on damp ground. Perfect for all kinds of trekking in the mountains and other rough terrain. Practical leg pockets offer storage; a large one on the right-hand leg has room for a map and a smaller zippered one on the left-hand leg fits a compass. The waist is wide for better comfort and can be adjusted with a drawcord on the inside. There is also a zippered security pocket and a little loop on the left hip to attach gear or a light jacket to. The fit and four-way stretch fabric provides enhanced freedom of movement, and it can easily be brought along to sit comfortably under a pair of shell trousers if it starts raining
