So, I’m about to be a field forester and that means I need some durable, looser, and storage heavy clothes.
Couple young foresters I’ve talked to had told me they had been disappointed in their Carhartt’s as they felt the quality has gone done since becoming more mainstream. I can’t speak to that, but it does shy me away.
Enter the hemp workwear line Patagonia came out with, I was immediately interested. Especially in the overalls for the storage and security (plus warmth in the winter, snow down your pants is NOT fun).
Can anybody attest to these things holding up to some serious work outside in swamps, logging yards, etc? Just places where other clothes get torn up in under a year.
I’ll be doing the W trek and other treks around Patagonia end of March and early April. I have good hiking pants from Kathmandu but they aren’t waterproof and I’m worried about them getting wet when I do the W trek in April. Are goretex/waterproof pants essential? What are your recommendations?
