Insulated pants come in many styles, ranging from simple windproof and waterproof models to lined trousers to ones with thick padding. Many people underestimate how important it is to keep the legs warm in freezing weather, and doing this can make a huge difference when trying to stay warm. A pair of insulated trousers can be very useful: they can be used for skiing or snowboarding, hiking and even camping or just to stay warm outdoors at the end of a long day.
