Velilla 103022S stretch trekking trousers: 180 g/m², the lightest in the range
These don't come from the construction world but from the mountains, and it shows in the key figure: just 180 g/m² of stretch fabric with 86% polyester and 14% elastane. That is less than half the weight of the 103018S denim. They breathe, dry very quickly and stretch in every direction. The pockets close with reverse zips and press studs, not hook-and-loop.
✅ Features
180 g/m²: the lightest trousers in the catalogue; you barely notice them.
14% elastane: the highest elastic content in the range; complete freedom of movement.
Quick drying: the 86% polyester wicks moisture away and dries in no time.
Reverse zip closures: on the left leg and both rear pockets; nothing falls out when you bend down.
Pocket with flap and press studs on the right leg.
Pockets: 2 slanted front pockets + 1 with reverse zip on the left leg + 1 with flap and press studs on the right leg + 2 rear patch pockets with reverse zip
Stitching: double safety stitching
Sizes: S, M, L, XL, 2XL and 3XL
Colours: white/grey, grey/black, sand beige/black and navy blue/black
🧺 Care
Machine wash at 30 °C; air dries very quickly.
No fabric softener: it clogs the polyester's wicking capacity and the trousers stop drying quickly.
No hot tumble drying: the 14% elastane degrades.
Do not bleach. Iron at low temperature.
💡 Tip: light doesn't mean tough. At 180 g/m² and with no knee reinforcements, these trousers are not designed for kneeling on concrete or crawling under a machine: they won't last long there. Their territory is fieldwork, on foot and in the heat. For kneeling, the 103019S; for abrasion, the 103011 canvas.
