  1. Hello!

    I need some loooooong walking trousers - 35-36'' inside leg!

    I'm not fussy (can't afford to be, eh?) so whatever low-cotton content
    trousers will do - Actually I was thinking of some Army-style camo
    trousers, they seem to come out longer...

    Well, suggestions are most welcome 🙂

    Mark.

    Rohan Bags are 35.5" inside leg as standard.

    They're 50% cotton but it's a fine enough weave that that isn't a major
    issue for the most part. Can't say I'm a fan of them for /walking/ (I
    wear them daily for work), but there are plenty of pairs out there doing
    duty for that.

  3. I used to be in the army. I wouldn't reccomend the camo style trousers.
    They are quite thick (usually lined too) and once wet they take a very
    long time to dry out thus increasing the chances of hypothermia! much
    better would be the "Denims" - thinner lightweight plain green
    cotton/polyester trousers worn for everyday use. They dry quicker, have
    good map pockets, are hard wearing, and are comfortable. I hope this
    helps.

  4. Thanks for the advice 🙂
