Which women’s hiking trousers should I choose for winter?

The QUEBEC has a fleece-lined softshell and a 10,000 Schmerber membrane to block strong winds when winter hiking or snowshoeing. For ski touring, choose the BORNAND, with side vents and reinforced lower legs. In very cold weather, add thermal leggings underneath.

Which hiking trousers should a shorter woman choose?

If you’re under 1.62 m tall, choose a COURT version, made with a shorter leg: LEVANNA, PLARET, CARLITA and CLARET for summer; BALMAZ and EXPLORE for the mountains; QUEBEC and HOGGAR for winter and rain. That saves you from hemming them, which can compromise the sealed seams on waterproof trousers.

Leggings or trousers for hiking?

The GRIVOLA leggings (220 g in size S) fit close to the body and have reinforced knees and seat: a choice for spring and autumn. On rocky terrain, in rain or in very cold weather, switch to trousers: the reinforced EXPLORE, waterproof HOGGAR or fleece-lined QUEBEC.

Which women’s hiking trousers should I choose for summer?

Choose a lightweight, stretchy pair that dries quickly: the OCHE weighs 199 g in size S, while the LEVANNA and PLARET weigh 270 g and have a water-repellent treatment. If the day starts cool, the CLARET converts into shorts without you taking off your shoes.
