Fjallraven Abisko Trousers

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

A hard working pair of technical trousers, a perfect blend between flexibility and durability.

Fjällräven says:

Technical trekking trousers that combine stretch and G-1000 for high mobility and durability, perfect for hilly treks or climbing when nothing should hinder your movement. The rear and knees are pre-shaped for the best possible fit and the waist is lower in the front and higher in the back to fit comfortably when carrying a backpack. An extra piece of fabric in the crotch and the placement of the inseams decrease the risk for rubbing. The zippered hand pockets are placed for easy access even when wearing a hip belt. Large leg pocket with flap and a smaller mesh inner pocket on the right leg, a small pocket for a mobile telephone or GPS on the left leg. Stretch in the lower back and G-1000 reinforcements at the rear, knees and leg endings. Raw length that can be easily adjusted to your height.

Our Verdict

These trousers offer a fantastic amount of movement, yet do not sacrifice on durability, thanks to their clever use of two fabrics, a light and flexible “stretch” fabric, and Fjallraven’s famously robust G-1000.

The knees, inside leg and seat of the trouser, are all reinforced with G-1000. The rest of the trouser, the front leg, inside thighs and yoke (the belt line at the back of the trouser) is made from Fjallraven’s flexible stretchy material.

2 zippered hand pockets are placed for easy access, even when wearing a rucksack, thanks to the high waist at the back. A small mesh pocket is located inside the leg pocket which is perfect for a mobile phone.

These will be a go-to season after season, hard-working and reliable
