Purchased these trousers for my daughter in law as she walks most weekends with her husband and children. Reported back to say they are fantastic, very well made and totally waterproof and nothing gets through them even when walking in Lake District in very poor rainy weather. Highly recommended
I wish I got these trousers sooner. They are lightweight and I am a able to keep them in my back and put on when required. Totally waterproof and kept me dry during showers.
I’m really happy with the fit as I’m quite short and was worried they would be too long for me but I was so happy when tried them on and found them just perfect length for me.
I know these trousers are expensive because they are Gore Tex and Berghaus but in my opinion these are well worth every penny.
10/10 for me.
This product is light weight but warm and very waterproof when used over trouser’s. I have worn them on some seriously wet mountain days and have remained dry. They are also very comfortable.I managed to get them in a sale as I was a little reluctant to pay full price for them as they are not cheap. But they are good value.
These things are super light and very comfortable. I have had a paclite 2 jacket for many years and really impressed with it so decided to take the plunge on the trousers. They really are exceptionally waterproof and can hardly be felt over my walking trousers. Have not got too clammy in them so they are obviously quite breathable. I find most Gore-Tex stuff lasts forever these days particularly if you keep them clean. If you are after a waterproof trouser you probably wont go far wrong with these
First time out: 6 hours in constant drizzle and my legs were the only part that was completely dry, so full marks there.
These trousers have zips almost to the top of the leg and double tags so you can vent or reach into a trouser pocket.
A few minor niggles:
1. Although they do scrunch up enough to fit into a small mesh bag, it requires some effort as the bag is tiny.
2. There’s a noticeable white label inside on the front, which I mistook for the back, so I put them on back-to-front first time, thinking it was marking the back. The back is actually marked with black tag and loop and in poor light and conditions this could be tricky to find. An opportunity missed by the designers, I feel.
3. The zips are well-covered by a flap and at the knee there’s a popper tab which is a) completely unnecessary as the flap really doesn’t move, b) gets in the way when un/zipping. I will be removing it in due course.
4. I bought exactly the same size as my previous Berghaus overtrousers, but these are just ever so slightly tugging as I walk. (And I’ve lost weight!)
5. They are slightly noisier (not intrusively) than my previous (which are no longer made) and the fabric feels thinner.
Overall, however, so far so good, and I’m pleased.
Unfortunately i sent these back due to being slightly tight on the waist when wearing over golf trousers.
But lovely design .
Breathability fab, waterproof and have good hem to thigh zip openings.
True to size, excellent product – I am generally a size 10 and 5’6″ tall. I bought a 12, 29 leg. They are fab but I could easily have managed perfectly with the size 10!
I have had previous versions of Berghaus waterproof trousers and to be honest have been happy with the brand. I brought these due to their compactness – when you fold them up into the mesh bag you are looking at the size of a small bag of sugar. When you are out on day hikes and you bag is full of ‘stuff’ its nice to not have your bag filled out with waterproof trousers. I like the side zips as when it get hot – you can aerate your legs and access pockets in the trousers. Personally think its worth paying a little extra for the lightness and compact nature of the product.
Auerdem lsst sie sich leicht im beiliegenden Mininetz zusammenfalten und findet dadurch auch Platz in der Jackentasche.
Bei meiner Krpergre 162 cm und meinem Gewicht von 54 kg ist diese Hose zwar immer noch etwas lang (trage sie ber dem Bauchnabel) und etwas weiter, aber wenn man darunter eine Jeans trgt und die Berghaus Paclite Pants als berhose nutzt, passt es schon.
Die regulre Lnge kann ich bei meiner Krpergre nicht empfehlen, wenn man so klein ist wie ich.
Auch die Gre S ist eher eine Gre 38/40, so dass ich diese zurckschicken musste. Die Kleidergre XS Short (Kurzgre) passt jedoch gut…
Very light weight, lenght option (short) was great but a little wide in thighs and a little narrow at ankle to fit over ski boots for touring
Have the trousers kept me dry? They really have! not only dry outside, but dry inside when walking gets hot and sweaty. I love the zip on the sides at the top that helps to keep cool when needed. Easy to put on even whilst wearing walking boots thanks to the long zip. But buyer beware, the leg lengths are a bit weird, short are 29 inch, the normal are 31 inch and long 33 inch. Sadly I bought normal length and they are bit too long giving me a baggy trouser look. I’ve not sent them back as the price difference is 30. So I’ll put up with it, besides being honest they are mainly for dog walks.
