Fitted/ sexy or just flattering hiking trousers...?
Where can I get decent walking trousers that don't make me look like I'm standing in a tent? I'm a size 6, and want something a bit fitted. Are there quick drying tough walking trousers like this or will i just have to stick with a combo of cords and skinny fit jeans? I do a lot of walking (15-30 mile treks), but am going up some munros with friends that have the gear, so I'd like to pick up the right stuff...thanks fo rall answers 
I'm sorry, but the outdoors aren't about looking good. There's no designer hiking trousers. Focus on comfort instead of looks and you'll be happy.
