Men's water-repellent mountain and snow trousers Quechua SH500 Mountain

Description

Our designers have created these softshell trousers for intermediate hiking in cold and snowy environments. Stretchy, warm and water-repellent fabric What is water repellency and how can it be maintained? The water-repellent effect of a fabric is its ability to let water slide off its surface without absorbing it. Thus, the fabric does not become soaked with water and remains light, breathable and warm. The water-repellent effect is obtained through a treatment applied to the outer face of the fabric. You must renew the treatment during the life of the garment (recommended at each wash). Products (spray or liquid) available for this purpose in our stores. Am I sure that my trousers are warm enough for my winter hiking trips? The inside of the trousers is brushed, a process known for retaining heat. The principle is simple: the mesh of the component is structured to provide volume and trap air, which is naturally insulating. It is exactly the same principle as that of animal fur or feathers. Comfortable and practical snow hiking trousers. With their slim fit and stretchy fabric, the trousers offer you the freedom of movement essential for snow hiking trips. The zipped pockets secure everything that needs to be within reach (tissues, lipstick, keys, etc.). How do the trousers protect me from external conditions? In winter, it is important to protect yourself from both moisture (snow, rain) and wind, as the latter cools the body significantly, both during activity and at rest. We have designed your trousers with a windproof outer fabric and a water-repellent treatment to cope with all winter conditions. We have also added a lace hook to protect you from snow ingress. How to dress properly for snow hiking? To dress well in winter, whatever the activity, we advise you to follow the 3-layer rule: layer 1: the technical base layer facilitates moisture wicking to keep the skin dry. layer 2: the second layer (fleece, jumper) provides warmth and allows moisture to escape. layer 3: the jacket protects from the elements: rain, snow, wind. Each layer must be breathable to be able to wick away moisture. Will the trousers offer lasting resistance for regular use? To ensure the resistance of our products, we carry out tests on the chosen components: resistance to rubbing and abrasion, colour retention, resistance to continuous washing. All these tests are carried out on the trouser component. Warm and comfortable trousers, ideal for hiking in snow, cold and wind. Sizing is slightly narrow, we recommend 1 size larger than usual for maximum comfort. Warmth Windproof fabric, brushed on the inside for greater comfort down to -11 °C. Stretchy
