Waterproof trousers recommendations

[Twizzel]

I need a new pair of waterproof trousers. My current pair are not so waterproof anymore after chasing after escaping sheep one evening and ripping them on a barbed wire fence! Humph.

I don't need to ride in them... I'm an event photographer so out in all weathers. I'd like them to be more fitted than those cheap regatta ones you get in the little bag need to be worn in all seasons too. Any recommendations?

My ski trousers (lined only not padded) have been fab, they were from TK Maxx and approaching their 8th winter. Seen some quite good ones last week in my local Mountain Warehouse shop too, which may be worth looking into.

Another for ski trousers, i live in mine in the winter!
they usually have like dungaree tops so they keep your lower back warm too!!

The best ive ever had in terms of comfort and waterproofness are my Raceday riding leggings. Ive had two pairs and am trying to find more as no others even come close! They are very reasonably priced also.

I have some climbing ones made by Marmot. They're very fitted and I can sit down in the wet and still be dry. Not cheap but worth it, especially in the winter.

The mark Todd reinega ones are a fitted women's style and much more flattering than others , live my Rambo ones but not flattering at all 😉

Paramo make gear designed for photographers as part of their range. Their gear isn't cheap but performs amazingly, lasts well and feels great. Well worth having a read of their website and giving them a go.
