Reviews overview
Praise vs. Criticism
Good for midseason, typical Fjallraven quality
Main fabric is the same as the Abisko Lite, with some added stretch panels, very similar fit also which is a bit slimmer than other Fjallraven models (i.e. Vidda Pro). Hook and loop ankle closure, nice cargo pockets: one huge buttoned and the other zippered with phone liner inside.
Only comes in Long version but I have slightly longer legs and I like more ankle coverage than not.
- Advantages
- Robust
- Good cut
- Good details
Too stiff
Great cut and very comfortable trousers, however due to the stiffness of the material, they are prone to cuts. For this price tag I would expect the product to last a good bit longer and withstand a lot more abuse. Great for an easier terrain but scrambling or moving through the bushes will literally destroy them.
- Advantages
- Good cut
- Windproof
- Lightweight

I am trying to figure out the size chart. I find it a little frustrating. My apologies in advance.
I want to order my wife a pair of Fjallraven Kaipak trousers.
Her measurements in USA/CANADA are; waist 30 inches, hips 34inches and length of leg 32inches.
Please, please, please help me figure out which size I order in European size. My guess is 40. But I'm slightly confused and feel defeated.
Cheers
I got size 58. Just be aware that the length isnt stated. Mine were long (36”)although I was expecting short (32”).I wont be sending them back as theyre an absolute bargain at this price and I can use the buckle at the bottom of the trousers to tighten them so they dont hang too low. My vidda pro’s are comfortable but these are even better and will be ideal for summer walking because theyre lightweight. Viddapro’s are a beast of a trouser and perfect for winter. These Kapiaks completed my collection.
