Our Review
I've been using Craghoppers clothes for years.
It's been a long time since I last bought a pair of Craghoppers trousers, since mine have just kept going, and going. So much so, that my Craghoppers adventure trousers are very different from their latest kit. Fortunately, Craghoppers sent me over a pair of their latest Kiwi Pro II trousers to try.
Recycled, and Stretchy
It's great to see all that recycling finally making its way back into products, and that's exactly what Craghoppers have done, with 280 grams of recycled material in every pair.
Even the 'plastic' bag they came in was recycled and biodegradable.

You wouldn't notice they use recycled materials from the feel of them, though. The fabric is quite soft to the touch and feels great when on. They also have stretch built into the weave, which is ideal when you are active outdoors. These trousers won't restrict you when jumping over streams or scrambling up rocks.
Zipped Pockets
The pockets have zips, keeping things like keys and your phone safe.
Each zip has some cord attached, making them easier to open, and it is especially helpful if you wear gloves. One pocket even contains a glasses wipe!
More Protection
As well as being a stretchy fabric, it's also been coated for additional protection.
This includes the Craghoppers SmartDry Eco technology so that drops of water will bead and roll off the trousers, helping you stay dry for longer. They are also treated to protect you from the sun with Craghoppers SolarSheild (UPF 40+).
Verdict
As you might tell, I like the Craghoppers Kiwi Pro II trousers, and they've been great when out hiking in them. I'm sure these are going to last for a long time too :-)
Happy to recommend them and give them the Thumbs Up Award.
