Field Trial Results:

The trial lasted several weeks over multiple walks, in varying conditions, terrain and conditions.

The trousers performed better than expected:

• The trousers are very robust and perform well in varying conditions.
• The wicking qualities were very good, the vents above the butt cheeks are a good feature.
• When putting the trousers on with boots/shoes, the full length leg zip worked well.
• The elastic at the base of the leg kept the lower leg in place and prevented trouser ride.
• Very lightweight and will take up minimal room in a pack.
