Women often feel misrepresented when it comes to hiking gear and apparel; they don’t fit the mold of slim, toned outdoor athletes that outdoor brands often present as idealized images of female outdoor athletes.
However, many companies are working to change this. They’re creating outdoor clothing specifically tailored for women that is functional yet fashionable.
Multifunctional
Gear and clothing tailored specifically towards women is key for outdoor adventures, since needs and preferences of female adventurers vary significantly from those of men. Most outdoor equipment was originally developed with men in mind. As such, we carry an assortment of durable and versatile outdoor clothing for women that ranges from rain jackets and hiking boots to gilets and tops – everything you need for fishing for trout or hunting big game! Our multifunctional women’s outdoor clothes provide endless opportunities for exploration! Women’s odor resistant shirts from our selection make an excellent addition to sweaty summer hikes, mild-weather running/biking sessions and spring skiing excursions. Many modern synthetic sun shirts feature anti-odor technology like Patagonia HeiQ Pure or Outdoor Research ActiveFresh; natural fibers such as wool may even naturally protect against odor without additional treatments.

Durable
Before embarking on any hike, ski trip, or camping expedition you need a wardrobe of sturdy women’s clothing that can keep up. Look for fabrics such as merino wool and nylon which are rip-proof and odor resistant; jackets and pants made of these should also feature this feature. Additionally, heat layers such as synthetic down blends should also be present, along with quick-dry baselayers.
Rab, a brand specializing in outdoor hiking and equipment for women, offers multifunctional clothing suitable for cold-weather adventures. Their Microlight Alpine down jacket is an example of such versatile outdoor apparel; featuring internally elasticised cuffs, adjustable hood, and 700 fill power down, making it the ideal option for any adventurer.
