Haglofs says:
A pair of extremely packable, lightweight and breathable pants that also perform brilliantly out in the wilderness. Perfect, then, for the L.I.M range. This new L.I.M Pant is made from lightweight, durable GORE-TEX Paclite® plus: providing the kind of protection and reliability you need when conditions turn rough. Designed for simplicity and lightness, with essential features but no spare weight. A perfect back-up shell layer for when you don’t trust the weather and want to be ready for anything.
Our Verdict
Haglofs' Womens L.I.M GTX Pants use 2.5 layer Paclite Plus fabric which gives them a high waterproof rating of 28000mm HH, making them reliable and good at the job in hand. The 30D fabric feels strong and durable to the touch and is comfortable to wear without adding weight. These trousers are very easy to put on in a hurry with the long waterproof side zips they offer quick protection when the heavens open.
The external hanging loop is convenient for drying. The Haglofs classic logo is beautifully positioned on the thigh as is the Gore-tex logo on the side of the lower leg, both in white and look nice against the black. I found the medium size good for me as I’m normally a UK12, though I would like to have some sort of waist adjustment either belt loops or drawstring, to secure the fit at the waist.
