I really like it, I use it whenever I can.

Comfortable, well-ventilated, yet warm enough, and odorless. Recommended for hiking, but I also took them skiing for 3 full days - there was no odor at all at the end, but it became the ski pants (I let both air out in the evening, merino "works" well). It was a perfect purchase.

merino wool.. a guarantee

merino wool is a guarantee. comfortable, warm and breathable

High wool content, but the fabric is too thin to keep warm, and the material is easily scratched

At the height of my…

Lived up to my expectations

icon-circle-checkmark verified purchase

I have bought it several times. The product is very good and there is no problem. It is a good choice as an inner layer for hiking on the New Zealand glacier, skiing in Hokkaido, or going to other cold countries. The price has a high C/P value. If you lose it, you don’t feel bad. You can buy the same product at any Decathlon in the world to restock it. Recommended, thumbs up!!

Merino long johns

Super warm under ski pants, used in Finland at -26°C, I recommend

Tights thin enough to keep you warm without sweating. Used under jeans in very cold weather.

For underneath

Might be a bit thicker for skiing. But ideal for autumn hikes.

This is the third pair I've bought. It's the only tights I'm happy with.

Used in very cold weather…

Used in very cold weather at -15°-20° when walking under jeans, it is very thin, does not bother and offers excellent thermal protection. I do not regret my purchase.

Good protection against cold and the pant is quiet light too

How to wash my trek 500 merino tights

Product testing

In November 2018, 8 trekkers (4 men and 4 women) and part of the Forclaz design team, tested these tights for 4 days in the southern French Alps (Lus La Croix Haute). You can expect wind, rain, a bit of snow, a bivouac... and a lot of fun! We were then able to make the final modifications and validate it for mountain trekking use.
