I'm from the lake district so I'm confident of my expert status as someone who understands rain and avoiding getting wet when out walking. I've had the male equivalent of these overtrousers for ages with no problems and more than reasonable levels of waterproofing. It was therefore nice to see my wife out in these and for once not ending up looking like a drowned rat at the end of a walk where, surprisingly for Cumbria, it rained - but only for all of it.They are certainly light and add very little to the overall rucsac weight, they're also well made and easy to get on over other clothing (because you wear other clothing when hiking right?) using a velcro fastening which seems robust and likely to grip for a long time.

Tired of walking about in trousers that absorb the water from the bottom up when it rains and then proceed to soak my shoes, I bought these Gortex ones despite the cost (they were far more expensive in local shops) and I am extremely pleased with their capability. They are over trousers but as the weather is so warm (but often very wet at the moment) I have worn them without trousers underneath and they are so light and cool. The sides have a zip that you can undo for extra air circulation and although they are more wide down the legs with nothing underneath, they look just fine, they aren't meant to be a fashion statement anyway, The bottoms also have a button to make them tighter if necessary.

I walk the dogs five miles twice a day (yup nutter). Ok so we've had these high winds and lashing down with rain at the moment.Have the trousers kept me dry? They really have! not only dry outside, but dry inside when walking gets hot and sweaty. I love the zip on the sides at the top that helps to keep cool when needed. Easy to put on even whilst wearing walking boots thanks to the long zip. But buyer beware, the leg lengths are a bit weird, short are 29 inch, the normal are 31 inch and long 33 inch. Sadly I bought normal length and they are bit too long giving me a baggy trouser look. I've not sent them back as the price difference is £30. So I'll put up with it,

Bought these trousers before hiking the West Highland Way and climbing Ben Nevis. They did an excellent job of keeping out the rain and wind in challenging conditions. The rain on the outside of the trousers would dry really quickly and they also got less muddy than my partner’s trousers. Compared to my previous, cheaper rain trousers they’re much easier to take on and off, due to the full length zipper, and also roll up really small, taking up next to no space in the backpack. They also look relatively good for rain over trousers (which are never the sexiest piece of kit). Overall really pleased with my purchase and would recommend them.

I have had previous versions of Berghaus waterproof trousers and to be honest have been happy with the brand. I brought these due to their compactness - when you fold them up into the mesh bag you are looking at the size of a small bag of sugar. When you are out on day hikes and you bag is full of 'stuff' its nice to not have your bag filled out with waterproof trousers. I like the side zips as when it get hot - you can aerate your legs and access pockets in the trousers. Personally think its worth paying a little extra for the lightness and compact nature of the product.

These are very lightweight, very compact, a great fit, easy to get on and off (possible even standing up and over boots), they zip up neatly without snagging and are waterproof. I've just had a 2 week holiday in Scotland with them and carried or wore them every day - very necessary! My only concern is how they will survive say sitting on rough surfaces e.g. rocks etc as they aren't a thick as previous overtrousers I've had, but I choose them because they are light, and the material does seem strong. They are great so far.

I took a long time to decide to buy a pair of these trousers as they are quite pricey. However, my sister has had a pair for years and recommended them, so when my trousers finally began to leak and I got soaked I decided it was time to buy.These are very comfortable. Just the right length for me ( I bought the 27" and am 5'4") so they don't drag on the floor. Easy to get on and off. Very compact - couldn't believe they fitted in the miniscule pouch provided - but they do!

I’m unusually a UK8 but I sized up with these so that I could wear thicker jeans underneath and it worked as I planned. Comfortably. I’m 5’4 and bought the 31 inch and the hem touches the floor around my heel slightly but it doesn’t drag when I walk. Bought this cover up when I’m cycling in the rain. I haven’t tested it out yet, but it won’t be long til I do. There’s the usual noise from friction when I walk, but it’s not bothersome.

The sizing was accurate being the UK sizing. Quality made. Very light weight and easy to move around in. Great for walking or running. Would not suggest allowing any of the surfaces to rub on the ground...as the fabric is thin and I don't think it would withstand abrasion. Side zippers make them easy to put on even with shoes on. Would have been nice it they had a pocket though.

I have had a pair of these for years and sadly damaged them. This new pair were a size bigger as I thought the fit was a bit restrictive for climbing. Alas the size I ordered was too big on the waist etc so I just turnover the waistband to shorten it. Tip then: don't buy big. Wonderfully waterproof and windproof. Would definitely recommend

They looked fine but I returned them as I’m only 5 ft and didn’t want to pay twice the amount to get a shorter size so took a chance. They were much too long. I’m a size 10 but found the waist too tight and that was without trousers underneath. I’m at an age where I can’t stand anything tight around my waste so they weren’t for me

Brilliant for walking the dogs. Finally found a pair of waterproof trousers which are a nice width on leg and not 4 foot too long! I’m 5’2” and these are the perfect length. Zips down sides allow a vent of cool air and enable you to reach your under trouser pockets. A bit pricey but if they do the job then they’re worth it.

Typical - as soon as I buy waterproof clothing it stops raining! It would have been helpful if there had been a choice of leg length. The trousers will be much too long for me but as I will wear them with wellington boots I don't suppose it will be a problem. Anyway, they are just the thing I was looking for.

I am very pleased with these Overtrousers. They are lightweight, packable and waterproof, and I was able to order the leg length I needed. The long zips and venting on the side also help to keep your legs cool. I am very happy with my purchase. The only small downside is that they don't have any pockets.

Delighted with these Gore tex trousers- a replacement items after 5 years of use- comfy and waterproof. Pack small when not is use in net bag supplied. I have reproofed old ones with Nikwax products with good effect but eventually a hole on the inside knee was not repairable even with sail tape.
