What are the Abisko Trekking Tights HD?
Well fitted, technical and extremely durable, what more could you want?! These trekking tights are ideal for those who would rather wear leggings than your standard hiking pants, yet need something just as robust to survive a beating in rugged environments.
What are they made of?
These tights are primarily made from a double-knitted recycled polyester stretch which feels smooth and comfortable next to the skin. It offers great flexibility for steep ascents and movement on technical terrain, without excessive weight or bulk. Plus, it has a matte finish that gives them a much more sophisticated, stylish look! You'll be relieved to hear the material is also completely opaque, meaning you won't have to worry about accidentally flashing your fellow adventurers if scrambling or climbing to reach the summit.
The seat and knees are reinforced with a hardwearing blend of polyamide, aramid, elastane, and polyester to offer increased longevity where needed most without compromising stretch and flexibility. A water repellent finish is applied to increase weather resistance, making them much more suitable for various seasons.
What are their features?
The waistband sits high to give you more coverage and support without feeling restrictive. It can be adjusted with a subtle drawstring to optimise the fit.
These leggings also come with multiple pockets - hallelujah! There's one zippered pocket for smaller, more valuable essentials like keys or a mobile phone, and an envelope pocket for trail snacks and energy gels. Each pocket is angled precisely to give you easier access and create a more flattering silhouette.
Full-length legs are more protective and ideal for colder days on the mountain where you don't want to expose any skin. A gusset at the crotch gives you more freedom of movement and reassures you there will be no split trouser business in the middle of your adventure!
Finally, flatlock seams are kinder to your skin, giving a softer feel and reducing the chance of rubbing and chafing if you're working up a sweat.
