Fabric: G1000
I decided to purchase these trousers about a week ago from Greenman Bushcraft, and so far they have been the best buy I have made in a while.

Fabric: G-1000 65% polyester, 35% cotton
Price Paid: 999 SKR
I used these pants exclusively this summer when I hiked through Söderåsens National Park in Skäralid, Sweden. These pants are extremely durable, the G-1000 fabric is very tear-resistant, and kept me warm and dry under windy and rainy conditions. To make the pants even more water resistant you can impregnate the pants with Greenland Wax.
The pants have seven pockets conveniently located, and there is a great front pocket that is a perfect fit for a Swiss Army knife. The G-1000 fabric will also offer you first-class UV protection which is an added benefit. These pants demonstrate the Swedish excellence in design and functionality.
My only regret is that I had to travel to Sweden to buy them. I can't find them to purchase, not even online, in the USA.
