Lightweight and quick-drying trousers constructed from chrono-carbon, rip-stop fabric for optimum thermal regulation when trekking in arid climates.

The Oryon Carbon Trousers are constructed from a next-generation, chrono-carbon rip-stop fabric chosen specifically for expeditions in high temperatures. This smart fabric provides a high level of stretch capability whilst remaining hard-wearing but most significantly it is imbued with a carbon filament.

The use of carbon helps effectively aid moisture wicking and heat transfer during the day but will also usefully retain heat after dark as temperatures drop. The chrono-carbon, rip-stop fabric also offers a high ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) so not only will it protect you from the elements you can feel but it will keep you covered from those harmful UV rays you can’t. Nature knows best and the Oryon Carbon Trousers, with their carbon technology, use the best of nature to tackle changeable environments.

Fabric aside, the Carbon Trousers are fastened with double slot buttons, another traditional military design that offers greater durability than conventional buttons. Targeted seams and an articulated knee design have been carefully placed away from areas of high movement in order to minimise perspiration build-up and potential discomfort during periods of activity.

Mesh-lined pockets provide storage capacity for expedition essentials and can also be used to vent excess body heat. Additional side vents provide further temperature regulation without affecting the durability of the trousers, keeping you cooler for longer and able to focus on the task at hand.

Semi-lock zips have been used throughout in order to adjust and fix vents in place as desired. This high emphasis on breathability and ventilation is key for multi-day expeditions where access to effective washing facilities may not be possible.

For additional weatherproofing, the Carbon Trousers have been treated with a C6 Durable Water Repellent which will keep water beading for a short period if caught in a sudden shower. The DWR will limit perspiration penetrating the fabric, meaning the fabric stays dryer for longer, preventing the build-up of moisture and aiding a quick drying process.

Owing to the construction of the Carbon Trousers they will also dry quickly if being used for kayaking and other waterborne pursuits.
