I am a massive fan of Craghoppers and am very happy when dog walkers ask me about my trousers, I can talk about them for ages, because for me they are faultless. I’m not a serious walker in that I’m not into long hill treks or exploring mountain trails, but I walk my dog many miles on a daily basis, visiting local Welsh beaches and forests, so it is vital for me that my trousers are comfortable and to be comfy they must be stretchy. Without the stretch I find myself very restricted and I can’t have that when I am throwing and rescuing dog balls and makes trousers much more comfortable to wear.
These terrific trousers also have a durable water repellent finish that gives you protection from light moisture and allowing you to keep drier for longer. With sun-protection too, through a combination of 3 things, the density of the fabric construction, the type of yarns used and its colour. The specially constructed fibres are also too tough for insects like mosquitoes to penetrate, so it is no wonder the Kiwi Pro II trousers tick all on my boxes. But there is something else that I am impressed with and that is Crags use of recycled materials as these trousers are part made from recycling plastic bottles into polyester, which reduces carbon emissions and of course landfill waste.
There is absolutely no point at all for me looking for other trousers as I have everything I need in this pair of women’s Kiwi Pro II trousers.

Who we are
Back in 1965, Craghoppers started like most epic adventures do. A couple of competitive outdoor enthusiasts, a few new ambitious ideas and a bit of ‘I bet you can’t’ banter. We challenged ourselves to design the ultimate clothing for the harshest adventures and then to test it, by wearing it from the beautiful British Peak District to the heights of Everest. Kitting out one of the first British expeditions to Everest influences everything we do today. We’ve since made it our life’s work to travel the world for inspiration, designing the most sustainable innovative outdoor gear for every adventure and environment. It’s a winning formula that’s made us Britain’s leading authority in outdoor and adventure travel clothing.
