Fjallraven Barents Pro Trousers - Dark Olive

  1 of 66

  This is my second pair of Barents Pro trousers. I still wear my old pair almost every weekend for hiking, dog walking, fishing and camping when I get the chance. Absolutely the best pair of general use outdoor trousers I have ever worn. Comfortable, breathable and you can wax them up if it’s going to be really wet. They are extremely tough and the pockets are well designed. I wanted a second pair just in case one pair is in the wash! Outstanding.

  Best trousers I've ever owned. Such a good investment. They're incredibly well designed and made. I use these as casual trousers as well as hiking and working trousers. I'm amazed at how together they still look and feel. Waxing them up is a nice thing to do, like collecting firewood, its therapeutic and rewarding, and once waxed and its wet these are a joy to wear. The pockets are neatly discreet thanks to the dark olive colour. I can fit my lunch, snacks, tools and other gear around the pockets with ease. Great to store cash or cards etc when out and about, the pockets lock together well. The shape of the trouser follows the gentle curve in your legs, which makes them a real joy to wear, a simple but very effective device. Along with a few other items, these trousers are an essential piece of kit. I know that when I head out these will perform and never let me down. Incredible piece of clothing and one that makes you want to wear them and get outside.

  I looked at a lot of different walking trousers and after reading some reviews I decided to get these. They are great, they fit me really well, they are very comfortable and having the uncut trouser leg is great, as I'm 6'5' and find it hard to get trousers with a long leg length. Great service and fast delivery. Will shop with this company again. A1

  Good fit, looks nice, very long though. Going to have to get them taken up but at least that way you can have them made to measure.

  Fjallraven live up to their reputation, I have been putting off buying these Barents however now I wish had bought them earlier. I have only had them for a short time and already have given them a bit of a bashing, especially when I'm out foraging through bracken bushes and brambles. Would highly recommend!

  As usual, Woodlore excel at prompt delivery. The trousers arrived the day after I ordered them. I have owned two pairs of similar trousers from Fjall Raven. The first pair has long since been converted to rags. The second is still in use. The material is wearing thin now and the tab on the front zipper is badly worn. I use these trousers frequently when I am walking and when I am working in woodland. Although the latest pair is supposedly the same size as the old pair, it feels slightly more generous in cut. So I wonder whether the old pair has shrunk a little in the wash. The old pair has an internal security pocket at the front. The new pair does not have such a pocket. I never used it. It was too awkward. The new pair has an elasticated pouch inside the front right pocket. It seems a little flimsy, and I suspect that eventually it will reduce the utility of the pocket that hosts it. In other respects, the workmanship appears to be very good, and I am sure that the majority of the fabric will last well. In practice I have found the pockets to be generous, and I have not knowingly lost anything I stowed there in thousands of hours of use. A pocket I have almost never used is that for a multi-tool, situated on the left side. It can take a folding knife instead, and it may be that this will be useful on occasion. However it will do neither for a sheath knife, nor for any of the more substantial tools one is likely to call on whilst engaged in forest work. The trousers come with extra leg length. They need to be cut and hemmed at the right length for the legs of their owner. This results in simple ends that rest just over the upper lacing of the owner's boots. As always when working with cloth, do not cut off too much initially. It is better to turn them up and experiment with the length for a while. Once the right length has been found, they can easily be hemmed by anyone moderately proficient with needle and thread or a sewing machine.

  Great buy. They come in a long length and had to be turned up for me, they were very easy to sew. Good fit, very comfortable to wear and look great.

  Considerately packaged for shipping and of good quality material that will last!

  Great fitting trousers and really comfy but as with most Fjallraven trousers they need to be adjusted length wise unless you are seven feet tall. I have been using them for summer shooting and stalking as the colour blends in with summer foliage. They can be made water-resistant with the Greenland wax but not water-proof. Good pocket layout but they could do with rear pockets as I, like most men carry there wallet in there rear pockets. Great service from Woodlore and will use them again.

  This is the second pair of Fjallraven G1000 trousers I've had, although my others are a different type. These are really very good; comfortable, good sizing and I think will be robust. Having looked at various sites that sell these trousers, this was the best value. Overall, I really do rate Ray Mears Bushcraft as a supplier of quality products, some things maybe at a premium but others are priced at the level that reflects popularity (the more that the product is purchased, the less you pay!). Highly recommended.
