Description
Our Classic Hiking shorts are an iconic part of the Rooster range, being one of the first products brought out. We have developed them overtime with improved fabrics and technology to keep them at the top of their game! They have been designed with 10.5" batten pads at the back of the upper leg, which allow for a good connection with the boat. The battens are made in 3 parts enabling them to shape around the leg for maximum comfort and hiking longevity. Extra padding at the knee pads provides additional comfort whilst a thinner superstretch neoprene is used behind the knee to ensure a comfortable fit on the majority of leg sizes, and when in bent position.
The ¾ length fit finishes just below the knee and these Hikers also work great when worn over PolyPro Leggings or a Thermaflex Long John for when extra warmth is needed, or Rash legs for UV protection.
Top Tip: If you want to extend the life of your classic hiking shorts even further from abrasive decks and improve grip, get some Wear Protection Shorts to wear over the top!
We recommend hand washing in warm soapy water and allowing to air dry.

Really good pair of hikers, I wear them over a thin wetsuit or by themselves in the summer and then this winter I am going to try these over my super therm, I brought them a bit big but I fit them now.

laser sailor: good hikers - although I think I bought slightly too big. 6ft 3 and 85Kg I am between sizes - I'd recommend to go small (as rooster says), but I didn't believe that I was a Medium (sizes now seem to be numbers) so went for Large size. They are comfortable off water, but are really slightly too big - my fault. Guess my recommendation would be that they should feel slightly too small when first bought.

I predominantly sail both Laser Radial's and Laser 2000's, along with the occasional Topper or Pico in really heavy winds. I'm 6'3", and 12 stone. I find the pads to be perfectly positioned, great for Laser's especially, they're also great in the 2000. They are a tad irritating in light winds, the fact you can't remove them, bout other than that, they're amazing.
