Trousers advise please
« on: 13:40:28, 22/03/18 »
Can anyone please advise on windproof waterproof hiking trousers?  I'm going hiking in Iceland and need something cheap but durable. Something about size 3-4xl

I know many will probably give more better answers. I like my Paramo Cascada for UK. Though you might need something like Enduro (which I think is thicker).
There is Berghaus Deluge, though they are overtrousers, (so you need a base trousers underneath), are fairly cheap. Though, maybe other more experienced posters, can advise if the above is suitable for Iceland.
I've worn the above in cold conditions ok. Though, I do run hot!

Thanks will look into them. The Paramos are quite pricey though 😨

Hmm Kinda, though you can always get some bargains on ebay or FB outdoor exchange! I never pay more than I have too!
You be amazed how much people want to look good IE smart on the hills. To me never worried me with that appearance. I seen worn Paramo trouaers (ok with marks) go for less than £25 sometimes!

Are you looking for 34 XL?  Often in Paramo I find if you have shorter leg requirement. You tend to get more bargains.

Thermal leggings under your existing trousers?

I get on well with my Craghopper kiwis, I have 3 pairs, a treated cotton mix, pure synthetic and a padded thermal pair. None cost me as much as £25.
I get on well with them but dont have anything to compare them too.
