Our Verdict
The Fjallraven Abisko Trail Stretch Trousers are an excellent choice for hiking and trekking in warm weather. The lightweight, packable design made from a double-woven stretch fabric allows for exceptional freedom of movement on the trail without weighing you down. The quick-drying and durable material protects your legs from scrapes, while the water resistance helps shed light rain.
Key features like the elasticated waistband, zippered pockets, and adjustable leg openings provide a comfortable, customisable fit. The pre-shaped knees enhance mobility. While fairly basic in design, these trail pants deliver on performance for their intended use.
The only potential downside is the lack of built-in ventilation, which could be an issue on hot, humid hikes. But overall, the Abisko Trail Stretch Trousers are a quality, functional pair of hiking pants well-suited for warm-weather trekking. The stretchy fabric and precise fit allow you to tackle challenging terrain comfortably.
