Real World Performance and Day to Day Use
In real outdoor use, the Berghaus Womens Deluge Overtrousers are designed to be kept ready for wet conditions. The waterproof and breathable Hydroshell 2L fabric helps solve the usual rainwear worry of staying dry without feeling too trapped inside the garment.
The elasticated waist with easy side adjustment gives a more flexible fit, especially when worn over other clothing. Articulated legs support freedom of movement, which matters on hill walks, dog walks, outdoor jobs, or wet commutes. The three quarter side zips and snap closures give extra control when you need ventilation, helping release heat when the pace increases.
Choose this if you want waterproof breathable overtrousers with adjustable comfort and useful side ventilation.
Skip this if you want everyday trousers rather than rain protection worn over clothing.
