Highlander Military Waterproof & Breathable Trousers
The Highlander Military Waterproof & Breathable Trousers manufactured to a very high standard in the style of the British Army issue Goretex Trousers. The trousers feature an elsaticated and drawcord waist. The leg bottoms can be tightened up by Velcro tabs. There are two waist pockets and both of these have a zip closure and a baffle to help keep out water These trousers are constructed using lightweight Waterproof and Breathable AB-Tex fabric. All seams are taped to prevent leakage. We have sold Highlander products constructed from AB-Tex for many years and have supplied numerous Shooting Estates with these products for their Gamekeepers and Stalkers. These products have been extensivley used on demanding Scottish Highland Estates and locally by the Gamekeepers on Raby Estate. We have had only excellant feedback on Highlander garments and the performance of the AB-Tex Waterproof & Breathable cloth. AB-Tex has a Waterproof Hydrostatic Head of 5000mm. The term hydrostatic head is used to denote the amount of water pressure required to penetrate the fabric. To measure the the amount of pressure required to penetrate the cloth a column of water is placed on the fabric and it is then increased until it penetrates the fabric. The British MOD definition for a waterproof fabric is that it must resist a 800mm colum of water (800mm Hydrostatic Head). The industry standard for the definition of "Waterproof" is a hydrostatic head of 1000mm. An hydrostatic head of 2000mm or more will take care of most European Rain conditions in all seasons. AB-Tex exceeds these standards, it has an hydrostatic head of 5000mm. Click here for more information on Waterproof Fabrics Now available in Green and DPM Camo
