Checking and re-checking the weather forecast (that we all know is not reliable in the UK), take out all the clothes you have and lay them out on the bed in a pretty much untidy manner and eventually give up saying you don&#8217;t have enough clothes. Stop! You don&#8217;t need more things you just need the right ones that you add or remove based on the weather conditions and the season. In this article, I will guide you through what exactly your hiking wardrobe requires and how to choose the different pieces of clothing. So, let&#8217;s get dressed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"what-to-wear-for-a-day-hike-the-buying-guide\">What to wear for a day hike: the buying guide<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"choose-the-correct-fabrics\">Choose the correct fabrics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The fabric matters. This is what will determine the quality, functionality and comfort of the items you are wearing. You need to check the fabric in which the clothes are made when looking to buy to avoid disagreements such as feeling cold or wet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em><strong>Polyester, nylon and merino wool <\/strong><\/em>are ideal for next-to-skin garments such as underwear and baselayers as they have the property to wick away perspiration and moisture<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Down<\/em> <\/strong>is notable for its insulating properties nonetheless it does not keep moisture away. It needs to be used underneath a waterproof layer to avoid being soaked<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Synthetic fabrics<\/em><\/strong> are now used instead of feathers for down jackets and represent a good alternative. They have the ability to keep you warm even when it&#8217;s pouring and they dry faster than down feathers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-layer-up\">How to layer up<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The secret is all in the layers and putting them on in the correct order. So let&#8217;s layer up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Wicking<\/em><\/strong>: The first thing to do is wearing next to your skin garments that have the property to wick away the dampness to stay away from this uncomfortable feeling of wetness and cold<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Insulated<\/em><\/strong>: The second is to stay warm by wearing one or more layers of clothes depending on the weather that has the ability to retain the heat so that you don&#8217;t get cold<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Waterproof and windproof<\/em><\/strong>: The last one is to keep the wind and water away to stay warm and dry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Screenshot-2021-07-10-at-16.49.27.png?resize=405%2C520&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"me on a top of a hill with lots of wind wearing a headband, jacket, legging and hiking boots\" class=\"wp-image-1816\" width=\"405\" height=\"520\" title=\"Layer up for hiking\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Outfit when it is windy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-to-wear-for-a-day-hike-depending-on-the-season\">What to wear for a day hike depending on the season<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Winter<\/em><\/strong>: Wear it all! You want to stay warm and dry at all costs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Spring and Autumn<\/em><\/strong>: It&#8217;s like a never-ending strip-tease. The weather changes so quickly in the UK that you need to carry with you some extra layers that you can easily take on and off and don&#8217;t take an excessive amount of space in your backpack.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Summer<\/em><\/strong>: While you might want to show up some skin, the sun can do a lot of damage. It is advisable to wear a sun-proof T-shirt and depending on where you go hiking you might want to wear trousers to avoid insect bites. And of course, don&#8217;t forget a headcover and sunscreen!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-you-should-not-wear-for-a-day-hike\">What you should not wear for a day hike<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Cotton:<\/em><\/strong> This is the fabric to avoid when going hiking as it absorbs and retain humidity. Leave cotton T-shirts and socks behind if you want to stay dry on your walk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Denim<\/em><\/strong>: This is the second most common mistake. As per above, denim is made in cotton, therefore should be avoided. It absorbs humidity and takes longer to dry so you would be left wet and cold.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Yoga pants<\/em><\/strong>: They are really comfortable and allow freedom of movement, however, they are not made in tear-resistant fabrics so they won&#8217;t survive the walk should you come across some branches or bushes. Prefer running leggings or sport pants as they are more resistent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Try to look good<\/em><\/strong>: Hiking is not a fashion show. It does not matter if you look good or not. What matters is that you are safe and comfortable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"what-to-wear-for-a-day-hike-the-essentials\">What to wear for a day hike: The essentials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-98.png?resize=1024%2C536&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"What to wear for a day hike: a black pair of thermos trousers, a light green fleece, a grey legging, a purple and black pair of socks and a white T-shirt folded and displayed on a stripped coloured background\" class=\"wp-image-1817\" title=\"What to wear on a day hike: the essentials\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-98.png?resize=1024%2C536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-98.png?resize=300%2C157&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-98.png?resize=768%2C402&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-98.png?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">So now you know how to choose what to wear for a day hike, let&#8217;s dive into what you need in your wardrobe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-baselayer\">1 &#8211; Baselayer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">For your base layer, you would want to focus on moisture-wicking fabrics such as merino wool to absorb the sweat and keep your skin dry. The good thing with a baselayer T-shirt is that you can use it all year long as the fabric helps regulate your temperature. It is not unusual to see people hiking in summer with just a merino wool T-shirt because it absorbs perspiration and reduces odours. You can choose the thickness of your baselayer depending on the weather conditions or the season when you are hiking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">For baselayers, the go-to brand is Mountain Warehouse for both men and women. The brand has a reputation for offering good quality products that last. For women, they have a model called the Talus long sleeve and for men the one called Summit merino which are both affordable.

They are well known for developing a fabric called&nbsp;Thermolactyl which has insulating properties. I started using them for skiing and had them for over 10 years. They are still in excellent condition. I recommend their basic thermal model. They are also available for men and kids.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-103.png?resize=500%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Black thermal baselayer top and bottom from Damart folded on a white background\" class=\"wp-image-1822\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" title=\"Damart thermal baselayer for hiking and skiing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-103.png?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-103.png?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-103.png?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-outline is-style-outline--3\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B077BM3XH6\/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=theflamingohi-20&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B077BM3XH6&amp;linkId=1f63ae6232e1afa7028ea885d3d23413\" style=\"border-radius:22px;color:#000000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">see damart thermal baselayer here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-fleece\">2 &#8211; Fleece<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-116.png?resize=1024%2C536&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"What To Wear For A Day Hike: Me on a rock wearing the Montana Mountain Warehouse kaki fleece\" class=\"wp-image-1839\" title=\"What to wear for a day hike: the fleece\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-116.png?resize=1024%2C536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-116.png?resize=300%2C157&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-116.png?resize=768%2C402&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-116.png?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Wearing the Montana fleece<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">If you are the kind of person to always feel cold (like I do), a fleece is what you need. It is an additional layer in between your baselayer and your insulated jacket which provides extra warmth. Ideal during the winter season or if the weather is cold, you need to choose a fleece made of polyester for its insulating properties. I own the Mountain Warehouse Montana model which is lightweight yet still keeps me warm. It is an affordable fleece and comes in a variety of colours.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-102.png?resize=500%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kaki Montana Mountain warehouse fleece on a white background\" class=\"wp-image-1821\" title=\"Kaki Montana Mountain warehouse fleece\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-102.png?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-102.png?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-102.png?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-outline is-style-outline--4\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08GH2WXTH\/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=theflamingohi-20&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B08GH2WXTH&amp;linkId=8475476e6b658f51e41af1440e751b23\" style=\"border-radius:22px;color:#000000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">voir le polaire Mountain Warehouse du Montana ici<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-insulated-jacket\">3 &#8211; Insulated jacket<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Whether you wear a fleece or not, you need an insulated jacket. As the baselayer keeps you dry, the insulated jacket, or down jacket, keeps you warm. You need to make sure you have one of great quality as there is nothing more uncomfortable than being cold on a hike. I have made the mistake to put price before quality and regret it deeply. So, here are two options for you to consider based on your budget but without sacrificing the quality. The Arc&#8217;Terix jacket is warm and packable, one of the best on the market however quite expensive as opposed to the Columbia model that is less technical but a great value for money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-104.png?resize=1000%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Purple Columbia Heavenly down jacket and blue Arc'Terix Atom LT hoody insulated jacket on a white background\" class=\"wp-image-1823\" title=\"Columbia Heavenly and Arc'Terix Atom LT Hoody jackets\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-104.png?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-104.png?resize=300%2C150&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-104.png?resize=768%2C384&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-104.png?resize=800%2C400&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 is-style-outline is-style-outline--5\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01MYU9QR7\/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=theflamingohi-20&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B01MYU9QR7&amp;linkId=25400f733c154e9a44c0ecabcc64a500\" style=\"border-radius:22px;color:#000000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">See Columbia heavenly jacket here<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50 is-style-outline is-style-outline--6\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B08BJG1FHJ\/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=theflamingohi-20&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B08BJG1FHJ&amp;linkId=a76c4e1c775f11d753af2a002e1e34f7\" style=\"border-radius:22px;color:#000000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">see arc&#8217;terix atom lt jacket here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-rain-jacket\">4 &#8211; Rain jacket<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Now we are all warm and cosy, the next step is to keep the rain and wind away. As for the insulated jacket, the quality of your rain jacket matters. Stay away from the &#8220;water-resistant&#8221; labels. They do the job with drizzle but if heaven opens they will not resist. And being wet on a hike is not only uncomfortable but equally dangerous. Go for a waterproof and windproof option to ensure it will keep the heat inside and the bad weather <em>outside<\/em>. My recommendation is the Outdoor Research Apollo rain jacket. It is made with Gore-Tex technology to prevent the water from going inside, has an adjustable hood and can be folded into its own pocket so that you can carry it easily on a hike when the sun makes an appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-105.png?resize=500%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Grey Outdoor Research Apollo rain jacket on a white background\" class=\"wp-image-1825\" title=\"Grey Outdoor research rain jacket \" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-105.png?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-105.png?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-105.png?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-outline is-style-outline--7\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B07D5XGNS2\/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=theflamingohi-20&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B07D5XGNS2&amp;linkId=ef3ac8083a3e9a80b4f0648a1b487d40\" style=\"border-radius:22px;color:#000000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">see outdoor research apollo jacket here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-pants\">5 &#8211; Pants<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">It&#8217;s good to have more than one pair depending on the season.

But as the British weather can change quite quickly during the day, a good option is to go for convertible trousers. You can zip and unzip it to make it shorter or longer. If you want to go for a short option only, I would strongly advise getting a long brief or cycling shorts underneath it. You will feel more comfortable when climbing up a hill that you are fully covered and whoever is behind you cannot see anything.

So, what is the difference and how to choose between the two?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Hiking shoes have a low ankle and hiking boots have a higher ankle, allowing more support. It&#8217;s down to two things really: personal preferences and terrain. The more difficult the terrain, the more ankle support would be required. However, hiking shoes are much lighter, and when you walk long-distance hikes it is preferable to have less weight on your feet to avoid tiredness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Winners of the best hiking boots and hiking shoes by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.t3.com\/news\/t3-awards-2021-outdoors-award-winners\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">T3 Award 2021<\/a>, the Jack Wolfskin Wilderness Lite Mid and the <a href=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/fr\/salomon-x-ultra-4-review\/\">Salomon X Ultra 4<\/a> won&#8217;t disappoint you.

You can find great and warm and headbands at Decathlon in their ski department. Having a bennie becomes handy when it is not only windy but pouring as well. You can wear it under your hoody to keep your head warm.

Prefer a cap to a hat as it stays in place in case of wind and you don&#8217;t need to worry about holding it with one hand. If you don&#8217;t want to spend too much money on a cap, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.primark.com\/en\/all-products\/womenswear\/accessories\/hats-scarves-gloves\/plain-red-baseball-cap\/p\/131184457\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Primark<\/a> offers a range of inexpensive ones which are surprisingly resistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"9-gaiters\">9 &#8211; Gaiters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">As per the saying, in England, we have one additional season compared to the rest of the world: the muddy season! And that one tends to last. This is why you need gaiters to protect your trousers and your shoes. It will also allow more durability to your clothes if you shield them from the damages the mud can cause. Gaiters are inexpensive, &nbsp;easy to carry and can make the whole difference when hiking in a field or woodlands on or after a rainy day. I own a pair of Bluefields and I am really happy with them. They are easy to put on and resist very well to a wash in the washing machine. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-112.png?resize=500%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Pair of black Bluefields gaiters on grey hiking shoes\" class=\"wp-image-1834\" title=\"Bluefields gaiter\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-112.png?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-112.png?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Untitled-design-112.png?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-outline is-style-outline--13\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B075V5JVG3\/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=theflamingohi-20&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B075V5JVG3&amp;linkId=23eca54535d9ef5891220bb13b4a6841\" style=\"border-radius:22px;color:#000000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Voir les gu\u00eatres Bluefields ici<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"10-waterproof-over-jacket-and-over-trousers\">10 &#8211; Waterproof over jacket and over trousers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">What to wear for a day hike against to protect from the rain and the wind?
