It’s no surprise that leggings are ridiculously comfortable.<\/strong> I wear them to everything from school drop-off to running errands and working out. But in the past, I’ve been leery of doing much mountain exploring with my beloved tights. <\/p>\n

Often, the fabric is not durable enough to withstand the abrasive beatings of mountain adventures, and I don’t want to ruin my favorite pairs by snagging them on bushes or burning holes from sliding on rocks. Kari Traa delivered with its Ane Hiking Tight.<\/p>\n

The Kari Traa Ane Hiking Tights<\/a> are made specifically for outdoor use. They are comfortable, but they are also very durable. I don’t worry about snagging or ripping holes when wearing these tights. The leggings are also UPF 40+ for additional sun protection during long outdoor pursuits.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In short:<\/strong> The Kari Traa Ane Hiking Tights<\/a> ($120) is a solid option for those who want the comfort of leggings in the backcountry. The UPF 40+ protects from the sun’s rays, and the full-length inseam (28.5″) and silicone grip on the bottom hem ensure that your entire leg stays covered. They even added ankle zippers to help put them on and off. These offer two large thigh pockets that are big enough for snacks, a folded-up map, and a large phone. <\/p>\n

The wide waistband is comfortable, but I found it uncomfortably tight by the end of long days. Lastly, while they wick moisture well, I found that I was overheating in the peak heat of the day. I’d recommend these for spring and fall adventures or high-elevation escapades where the temps are cooler.\u00a0<\/p>\n
