Hiking pants
Why the choice of your hiking pants is important
The specific conditions of a hike require essential gear like shoes or trekking poles. But the technical features of hiking clothing, especially pants, should not be overlooked, as they can make or break your hiking experience. Hiking can be a demanding activity depending on the elevation, weather, or season. Whether for men or women, the ongoing search for high-performance materials now allows you to find models that are warm, waterproof, breathable, lightweight, abrasion-resistant, or even convertible into shorts. What they all have in common is providing excellent freedom of movement, but some offer more breathability for summer, enhanced water repellency for versatility, or feature a fleece lining for extra warmth. There are also Softshell hiking pants, which deliver windproofing and moisture protection while offering insulation. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or just an occasional trekker, you'll find models for every preference, use, and season at Glisshop. Check out the Millet hiking pants in particular.

What trousers should you wear for hiking?
When hiking, your legs are constantly in motion, so it’s essential to protect them with suitable hiking clothing. A good pair of hiking trousers serves several key purposes: they ensure your comfort, protect you from the weather and challenging environments, and even enhance your performance by preventing unnecessary discomfort. Conversely, making the wrong choice—trousers that are too stiff, made from unsuitable fabric, or with an uncomfortable fit—can lead to irritation, restricted movement, or insufficient protection against cold and rain. For example, standard cotton jeans, while durable, become very heavy when wet, dry slowly, and restrict freedom of movement. To hike with confidence and enjoy the best experience possible, it’s best to invest in trousers specifically designed for hiking.
Walking pants to enjoy your outdoor adventures
A well-chosen pair of hiking pants will allow you to fully enjoy your adventure: you’ll be able to cover miles without excessive chafing, unpleasant dampness, or worrying about the first branch in your path. They will protect you from scratches and abrasions (from brambles, rocks) and even sunburn on your legs if you’re hiking in the height of summer. Additionally, they help regulate your body temperature—by wicking away sweat or insulating you from the cold as needed—so you don’t overheat on climbs or shiver when you stop. In short, choosing the right hiking trousers means giving yourself the best chance to hike comfortably and safely.
