Men’s Trousers & Shorts – Your FAQs Answered
Q: What are the best trousers for walking and hiking?
A: Look for men’s walking trousers made from lightweight, flexible fabrics with features like reinforced seams, articulated knees, and water resistance. Options from Craghoppers and Regatta are great choices for comfort and durability on the move.
Q: Are waterproof trousers worth it?
A: Absolutely. Men’s waterproof trousers are a lifesaver when the heavens open mid-hike. They're designed to keep you dry without overheating, and many can be slipped on quickly over your regular trousers when the rain rolls in.
Q: Can I wear shorts for hiking?
A: Yes – just make sure you choose purpose-built men’s cargo shorts or walking shorts. These offer freedom of movement, quick-dry materials, and plenty of pockets for trail snacks, maps, or multitools.
Q: What’s the difference between cargo shorts and regular shorts?
A: Cargo shorts for men typically feature multiple utility pockets and a more rugged design, perfect for outdoor tasks and casual adventures. Regular shorts tend to be simpler in style and better for relaxed everyday wear.
Q: Are there trousers that convert into shorts?
A: Yes! Convertible trousers (also known as zip off trousers) are incredibly versatile, letting you switch from trousers to shorts on the go. Ideal for hiking, travelling, or anyone facing a "four seasons in one day" situation.
Whatever your style – from classic and practical to modern and technical – Charlies offers trousers and shorts that work as hard as you do. So, whether you're heading out on a trail, working in the field, or just enjoying the weekend, you’ll find exactly what you need right here.
