Superb kit

Jottnar IMHO makes the best outdoor clothing on the market.

Excellent trousers, curious sizing

The trousers are fantastic and very high quality. I found the sizing a bit strange. I'm 5'11, 75kg 30" waist. I'm normally a small / medium but ended up having to go for large in these to get enough space/mobility in the thighs and bum. The result of that is that they end up being overly long with quite a bit of excess fabric. The jump between medium and large also seems quite big.

Storm Darragh - "Test"

A long walk around Yorkshire's Three Peaks in winter with a storm thrown in. A full day with the Valdyr hard shell trousers worn over a simple base layer was enjoyed in all weather from the briefest of sun intervals and the majority in driving rain from 0C to 5C and yes, the 100mph winds. I stayed dry, warm and comfortable. I am 182cm, 80kg and although the L size is generous it is a good fit for flexibility and movement. Highly recommended.

VALDYR

These are excellent. Superbly made pure quality.

Quality Product - Yet to be tested. 5-7", 80Kg, went for large

Bought these pants due to the great reviews I read and the fact they have all the features (and more) of products almost double the price. I am 5'7" and went for the large. With my Sportiva's the fit is great.
The main use for this product will be on climbs over 6,000m in India and Nepal this year. Given the clear quality of material and construction, I am sure they will perform well - more to follow and upgrade of score from 4 to 5
