In this category, we have prepared an offer of rain pants. They are an ideal solution for people who, due to work or interests, stay outdoors regardless of the weather. There are two most popular technologies for producing rain pants: the first is coating the top layer of the material with a special spray that creates a hydrophobic layer that does not absorb water. The second method is using fabric made from synthetic materials, such as specially prepared polyester, which will not allow water to pass through. An example of such a waterproof coating is sometimes a layer of Teflon. It is thin enough not to stiffen the material, leaving freedom of movement and providing protection against moisture.
Every angler or hunter has undoubtedly found themselves in a situation where ordinary material, which protected our skin from cold and dampness, turned out to be insufficient in pants that constantly rubbed against wet vegetation. Rainproof pants were created for such conditions, so every outdoor enthusiast can enjoy nature and adventure regardless of the prevailing weather. Every survivalist knows that a lot of things can be unpleasant in the field, but hypothermia is the most dangerous, which is why it's so important to maintain the appropriate temperature, because even a small rain that soaks your clothes can lead to a decrease in body temperature and abrasions. In the short term, this results in discomfort, but in a situation where you have many hours left to return to a warm, dry place – it can end tragically.
Thousands of years ago, in times of hand-spun materials, people created waterproof fabrics by coating them with beeswax and then applying a heating process. The wax would flow between the fibers and fill empty areas, creating a layer impermeable to water and air. Unfortunately, such prepared fabrics were hard to sew and even harder to wear due to their stiffness and unpleasant texture. In later times, when leather became the basic clothing material again, jackets and pants were oiled, preventing water absorption, adding shine to seasoned leather, and softening it.
In the 20th and 21st centuries, many new technologies have emerged and many ways to create rainproof pants have, and the old ones have proven insufficient, unsuitable, or expensive. Who in our times would take leather pants into the forest or sailing instead of dedicated warm and lightweight clothes.
At MILITARY.EU, you can find urban waterproof pants, classic cargos more comfortable than uniform pants but with a lot of pockets for organization, typical sportswear that will protect you from rain during an evening jog, or typical outdoor clothing, allowing you to comfortably set up camp during rain.
To ensure better comfort during traveling or sports, rain pants are equipped with flexible inserts placed at the crotch and back of the pants. This allows for full freedom of movement, while the pants material protects against wind and dampness. When going on a trip, you must take many useful things, so remember to pay attention to the number of pockets. The right number will allow you to take all the necessary accessories.
The most popular are low-profile cargo-style waterproof pants – that is, without visible large pockets. They are spacious enough to fit your entire EDC in the pockets, including a phone, wallet, folding knife, flashlight, pen, small first aid kit, and you'll still have room left for something to eat. Such pants are coated with Teflon, allowing for full comfort, breathability, and at the same time, they are resistant to wind and dampness, and their cut does not stand out in the crowd, impervious to rain during the return from work or the store.
