Sure, it’s great to know that there’s so much choice!  However, this can actually make choosing the best outdoor trousers for farmers quite time consuming and daunting – unless you know exactly what you’re looking for!

Yes, it’s easy to say that comfort, style and durability should be top of the list for farm work, but how do you really know that what you’re about to buy is going to give you the best outcome?

Whether milking, mucking out, feeding or perhaps operating farm machinery, you’ll need to know whether to go for lightweight, waxed, adjustable or maybe stretch-fabric Trousers. Think carefully about pockets too! How many pockets will you need when you’re out and about on the farm or up in the fields? So, already, there’s lots to think about!

Let’s take Jim as an example.  Every day he’s busy on his farm carrying out a whole range of tasks and he really doesn’t know what type of trousers to go for. He’s searched on line and has also been to his local country clothing store to seek advice. Jim simply wanted a pair of good quality, hard wearing trousers that would be best suited for all the different daily activities he pursues.

Well, here at Cherry Tree Country Clothing we stock many different styles and examples of quality outdoor trousers. So we would take time to chat with Jim to find out a bit more about the activities/type of work he’ll be involved with on his farm.  Based upon what Jim tells us, we would likely recommend some of the examples below.

Our recommended trousers for farmers

The Game Excel Ripstop

Being smart looking but durable, these trousers for farmers will not disappoint! They certainly will offer protection from all weathers when out and about because they are breathable and waterproof.  The many useful pockets  – including a handy leg pocket – makes these trousers a very worthy consideration!  Plus the Ripstop fabric on the legs and bum will help with wear and tear. They are available in sizes 30 to 42 waist, in Green.

The Highlander Tempest Trousers

These fully waterproof and breathable trousers are also very hard wearing!  They come equipped with an elasticated waist, an adjustable ankle band and some handy pockets that have zips to prevent anything valuable from falling out as you work. These trousers are available in Olive, in sizes M to XXL.

Hoggs of Fife Pro Bushwacker Trousers

Great quality, comfy and very durable are suitable words to use to describe these trousers!  They look smart and are rain and stain resistant too.  They come complete with two front pockets and two back pockets. For extra warmth and comfort, the Bushwhacker trousers are fully lined with a polyester/cotton lining. You can choose from a 30 to 48 waist size, either in Spruce or Navy. (These are also available unlined)

Hoggs of Fife Green King (Over-Trousers)

If you want tough and hard wearing, then look no further! The outer fabric of these over-trousers will give great protection when out and about. Also, because these are lightweight, they can be easily carried around with you until needed. They really are so easy to slip on and to take off, making them ideal for farm work!  They come in Dark Green in sizes S to XXL.

Regatta Action Farmers Trousers

These are a little bit different because they have useful ‘built in’ knee patches that are designed to hold knee pads.  Again, they are lightweight making them really nice to wear on those warmer days.  They are also water repellant and come with two large pockets on the front, along with two rear pockets. These are available in Black or Navy, in sizes 30 to 46 waist.

Percussion Savane

These nice looking, lightweight trousers have great breathability properties.  If you need to carry loads of bits and pieces with you as you go about your work on the farm, then these are for you! The Percussion Savane trousers actually have a range of seven convenient pockets!  They’ll reach you in a smart two -tone finish, in sizes 31 to 41 waist.
