Whitewater rushed against my legs up to my knees as white noise thundered in my ears. <\/strong>With a bridge out early in the Tour du Mont Blanc season, I was forced to ford a rushing torrent or turn around. Ford it was.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, my feet and legs were well-outfitted with waterproof Trango Tech GTX<\/strong><\/a> boots and Fjallraven Keb trousers. Thirty seconds after stepping into the rushing waterfall, I stepped safely on dry trail, feet still bone dry even after walking through 18 inches of icy meltwater.<\/p>\n

Sure, the boots were great. But even more impressive were the trousers, which kept water at bay even though it was much higher than my boot-tops.<\/p>\n

This spring, I wore the Fjallraven Keb trousers ($240) on every step of the iconic Tour du Mont Blanc, a 100ish-mile circumnavigation of Mont Blanc with 35,000 feet of elevation gain. The pants impressed me repeatedly with their versatility, durability, and comfort.<\/p>\n

In short:<\/strong> Fjallraven Keb trousers<\/strong><\/a> are perfect trekking pants for cooler temps. With tough G-1000 fabric in high-wear areas and stretch panels, the pants are tough, comfortable, and non-restricting. They are highly engineered specifically for trekking and it shows.<\/p>\n
