Jeans are very bad as they hold moisture. If it is cold and they are damp they will make you colder. Damp jeans could also chafe you badly. We have trekking trousers from M&S here in England. Plenty of pockets, zip-off and shower-proof. I'm sure you could find something similar. Quick drying so only 2 pairs needed, one to wear, one to change into. If the bottoms are wet/muddy just zip off and you only have the bottom bits to dry/wash. These trousers are surprisingly warm as they are very close weave and keep the wind out well, while not being too hot on warm days. They also look quite 'tidy' (if it matters).Tim said:I have read often that people take two pair of jeans.
