    Winter Camino gear for the quasi-large?

    Hello all, I am in the planning stages of a Winter trek on the Camino Frances in early next year, maybe that's too abrupt, I'm not sure, I'll see how the training and the Spanish-learning go. My issue is that the high-end trek clothing, primarily the pants, all seem to stop at size...
