Our team of hikers designed these lightweight trousers to best suit regular hikers looking for maximum comfort as they go out on their mountain walks.
Cut
These trousers have a sporty cut, close-fitting to the body, which will provide you with perfect comfort when you are moving, thanks to the use of a fully stretch fabric in both directions (width and length). You will forget about it completely!Finally, a tightening system at the hem of the leg means you can pull up the bottom of your trousers, if you are too hot.Choose your usual size.
MOISTURE TRANSFER TEST
The capacity of the fabric to wick away perspiration and dry quickly is measured according to several criteria: absorption capacity of the fabric, capacity of the fabric not to saturate with perspiration, speed of drying, etc. Level 1/5 is suitable for low intensity activities that don't generate much sweat. All our hiking trousers have a performance of 3/5
Product design: our expertise
Our Quechua global design centre is based in Passy, at the foot of Mont-Blanc in Haute Savoie. This location makes it a real meeting place for our teams (designers, product managers, engineers, etc) and outdoor sports enthusiasts. A great asset for designing your mountain walking products and providing you with all our expertise.
OUR COMMITMENT TO CONSUME LESS WATER WITH THIS PRODUCT
Textile dyeing requires a lot of water but also produces waste water from the dye baths. To reduce our impact on the environment, we opted for a bulk dyeing or """"dope-dyed"""" method for the black colour model. This method incorporates the dye pigments from the yarn manufacturing process onwards, and consumes less water.The black MH500 trousers use this new dyeing process, which we want to replicate with other colours in the near future.
The perfect hiking trousers to bring you comfort while walking both uphill and downhill. More respectful of the planet the black trouser uses a dyeing process that consumes less water.
