Mid-layer trousers for men – Warmth beneath the shell

Mid-layer trousers for men on winter outings

Mid-layer trousers are worn under shell trousers or on their own in mild weather. They provide warmth without being heavy or restricting movement, and are an important part of layered clothing in cold conditions.

At Jobb og Fritid you will find mid-layer trousers in fleece, wool and lightweight synthetic insulation. We stock brands.

How to choose mid-layer trousers

For intense activity: thin fleece or technical wool that breathes well. For sedentary cold (such as hunting): thicker insulation. Make sure the trousers are not too tight – there should be room to move freely.

Pay attention to fit

A good pair of outdoor trousers should sit well over the hips without being tight at the crotch or knees. Make sure the waistband does not dig in beneath the hip belt of your rucksack. Many models feature a adjustable waist and reinforcements at high-wear areas such as the seat, knees and thighs.
