Are these trousers warm?

The inside of these trousers is made of brushed fabric, which traps air to be used as insulation against the cold. Thermal comfort at temperatures down to -6°C tested and approved.

How is thermal comfort measured?

The thermal resistance test shows the loss of heat between the body and the outside, indicating the product’s insulating properties. It is carried out on a thermal mannequin, measuring the conservation of body heat

Why wear gaiters on these trousers?

To provide additional protection against dampness and snow, these trousers are equipped with gaiters fitted with lace-up hooks. By preventing snow from entering your shoes, these features allow you to stay comfortable, while keeping your feet dry

How waterproof are they?

These trousers have a water-repellent coating that lets water slide off the surface without penetrating. This allows your legs to stay dry during light showers or in wet conditions

How to restore the water-repellent properties?

To maintain effectiveness, we recommend regularly re-applying the water-repellent treatment, ideally with every wash. You will find specially-designed accessory products (in spray or liquid form) in our shops and on our website

How do these trousers keep you ventilated?

For hiking with a lot of movement, we know how important it is to wear trousers that allow heat to escape. With its two side ventilation zips, these trousers offer optimal temperature regulation while hiking, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout your adventure

How are they comfortable and practical?

To make it easier to move, we have added elastane to the fabric to make these trousers stretchier. We have also designed an elasticated waistband with loops so that they stay in place throughout your hike.
The lower leg zips make them easy to slip on

Approved by

All our products are tested in the field by user representatives and these tests are run in parallel to our laboratory tests. By conducting this comprehensive and demanding dual testing process, the technical features and design of our QUECHUA products is being continually improved. Your regular feedback is also taken into account to constantly improve our range.

Storage advice

Store in a dry, dark place.
We recommend you avoid using chemicals such as bleach, which could cause deterioration in the garment’s thermal insulation.

Test

We carry out 2 types of thermal testing:
- a test of the trousers’ material.
- a test on a thermal dummy in a thermal chamber.
We reproduce the temperature, wind (5km/h) and humidity conditions that you would encounter in the mountains walking at 5km/h.
These tests validate our design choices and we then adapt the thermal insulation where you need it most.
