Walking Trousers

It seems like a crazy question, but what makes a good pair of walking trousers and why should you wear them instead of your regular everyday jeans? In our eyes walking trousers should be hard-wearing to cope with rugged terrain. They should also be quick-drying in case the weather takes a turn for the worst, and they shouldn’t be too constrictive to your movement. This is one of the main reasons it’s recommended that you don’t wear denim to walk in, Denim can be restrictive and it takes a long time to dry when wet.

CHOOSING MEN'S WALKING TROUSERS

Decathlon’s collection of specially designed men's walking trousers incorporate a breathable, moisture-wicking material, designed to keep you cool when the weather is a little warmer, while protecting your legs if it starts to rain too. Many of Decathlon’s hiking trousers also feature an innovative seam-free technology which prevents rubbing and chaffing, allowing you to push yourself and walk further, trek higher and explore even more.

CHOOSING WOMEN'S WALKING TROUSERS
