WHAT MAKES camel active FUNCTIONAL TROUSERS SPECIAL?
Casual cuts and multi-pocket designs give our Explorer Pants their modern casual look. Thoughtful features like elastic loops and adjustable options at the waist make these pants ideal companions for all outdoor adventures and urban experiences. Here's a practical overview of all the functional elements of the outdoor trousers.
Pockets, pockets, and more pockets
A must-have in any outdoor trousers are practical pockets with plenty of storage space. Our Explorer Pants are equipped with numerous pockets: from slip pockets, small zip pockets, or safety pockets, to flap pockets in cargo style or handy cell phone pockets with velcro closures. Thanks to the versatile storage options, you can quickly access your phone, keys, money, and energy bars on the go.
Elastic and adjustable options at the waist
Extra comfort and customization options during active ventures are provided by the elastic bands and adjustable options at the waist. The elastic waistband allows for a flexible fit as it easily stretches and fits gently at the waist, comfortably conforming to individual body shapes and offering optimal freedom of movement without pinching or creating pressure points. This flexibility is perfect for everyday wear and makes our Explorer Pants ideal for longer tours and activities. With adjustable options at the hem, you can also tailor the length of the trousers as needed, which is particularly useful if you want to wear the trousers over different shoes or vary the length for specific activities.
Practical zip-off solutions
Another practical feature is the zip-off solution of our Explorer Pant cargo trousers. By zipping off the lower leg parts, the trousers can easily be transformed into shorts, allowing for quick adaptation to changing temperatures and activities during a day trip or hike. In cooler morning hours or shady areas, the long trouser legs provide additional warmth and protection from insects, while they can be quickly transformed into shorts to prevent overheating in warmer conditions. This also saves space in your luggage, which is especially practical for travel or longer hikes where luggage is limited or you want to travel light.
Knee darts
Knee darts are special seams or reinforcements placed at the knees of trousers. They provide the trousers with a fitted look and enhance the freedom of movement and durability of the trousers. The knee areas of outdoor trousers are often subjected to intense friction, especially during activities such as hiking, climbing, or working outdoors. Reinforced knee seams in our Explorer Pants help protect the fabric from premature wear and tear by using additional material to reinforce the stressed area and prevent tears.
Elastic loops
Hiking-inspired outdoor elements like elastic loops at the pockets give the Explorer Pants their explorer character and serve to better grasp the flap on the pocket, so we can quickly and easily access our most important items during a hike. They can also be used to attach items like small flashlights or keys to the trousers. This way, items remain secure even when you are in uneven terrain or cycling.
Our Explorer Pants are the perfect choice for all daily adventures, whether in the forest or in the city. The casually functional trousers with practical outdoor elements offer thoughtful features, preparing you for any type of undertaking. Here are our five favorite activities where our Explorer Pants are a must-have:
