Shell trousers are waterproof and windproof garments that protect your legs in rain, snow and wind. They are a key part of any hiking wardrobe, especially in the conditions of northern Norway where the weather can change rapidly.
At Jobb og Fritid you will find shell trousers for women from several brands. Most models use technical membranes such as GORE-TEX to combine waterproofing with good breathability.
Look for shell trousers with long ventilation zips on the sides – these are essential for regulating temperature during activity. Reinforcements on the seat and knees increase durability, whilst an adjustable waist and snow gaiters ensure the trousers fit well and keep snow out of your boots.
A good hiking trouser should sit comfortably over the hips without being tight in the crotch or at the knees. Make sure the waist does not dig in under a rucksack's hip belt. Many models feature an adjustable waist and reinforcements on vulnerable areas such as the seat, knees and thighs.
A shell trouser is a waterproof and windproof outer trouser without insulation, designed to keep your legs dry in rain and snow, worn over a hiking or mid-layer trouser.
Side zips release heat and moisture during activity and make it easy to put the trousers on and take them off.
Brands include Norrøna, Arc'teryx and Helly Hansen.
