HIKING CLOTHES 101: What to Wear Hiking (summer hiking clothes and all about layering)

[@PopFizzPaperDani]

Loved this! Fun editing too. 🤗 Part 2, underwear, bras, socks, shoes, accessories?

[@amanda.outside]

Great idea!! Thanks for commenting! 😁

[@kristyburroughs2267]

Really great suggestion! I would love to see this as well 👍🏼

[@serenamccoy3711]

I love convertible pants for hiking as well. You can start with the full pants, and then zip off the bottoms to have shorts when it gets too warm outside. They are ultra comfortable and versatile!

[@amanda.outside]

Thanks so much for watching! I had a lot of fun putting this video together, and as always, I hope it's helpful! 💚

[@jhoonhp8923]

Liking the creativity in this one. The one time you don't bring something will be when you regret it.

[@Johann-4354]

Excellent advice. Exactly the system I use with an exception. I live in northern Utah and color comes into play in the desert. Pure white clothing is the coolest combination I've found to hike in. I must emphasize though, loose white clothing, not the skin clinging style as you want air circulation. And one of the most important accessories, a four inch, or wider, full brimmed hat. Baseball caps shield your forehead but little else. In real desert conditions, covering skin is so important. Thanks for the video. Good job.

[@francknkashama7728]

Going hiking for the first time this weekend, thanks to your vids I feel a little more confident. Keep up the great work Amanda,

[@luanamendes4767]

I got the Columbia Saturday trail pants last year and I really like them. They are stretchy and comfortable , have pockets and you can clip the bottom to make it sort of ankle pants

[@TrekkingPals]

I wear the same pants most of the time and I love them so much!!

[@katiej4937]

Thank you for mentioning style! I felt so silly worrying about style when looking for clothes. Great recommendations!

[@Lulu.G-61]

I literally live in Columbia Anytime capris and pants. We are frequent campers and I wear these on the trail, in the kayak, at the campsite and at home. They are quick drying and stretchy and oh so comfortable!

[@MommyKat2004]

Loved this. Would love a budget version. If I spend $1000 on hiking I would feel bad when my kids are only eating Ramen....lol (although tempting :)

[@sugarloaf10]

If you live in a humid buggy area not only should you wear long pants but also avoid skin hugging clothing - mosquitoes can bite right through them. I am getting so frustrated with women’s outdoor clothing today being absolutely useless. The men get real protective clothes and women are just left with nothing.

[@jcgnbd7410]

Rachel Campbell I agree - so frustrating! The thing that gets me (and I am super jealous of these women 😃) is that when you find women’s clothing that is decent- it is made for women with A and B sized cups! I am large chested and short so finding things that fit is a crap shoot.....hopefully someone will help the busty women hike without skintight clothing showing off the girls and being super big everywhere else. I need a medium/large top but that never fits the chest area🤣. Someday......I usually buy men’s stuff, but it never fits right!

[@lindsaymuller1819]

@@jcgnbd7410 I am a slim b cup woman and I can attest to that. Even I who can easily find sizes that fit me perfectly, can clearly see the disconnect between outdoor clothing and curvy, busty, and plus sized women. After I graduate college and get my feet on the ground I would love to start an outdoor gear and clothing company catered to the diversity in body sizes and shapes, especially for women.

[@NimsChannel]

Consumer demand. I'm a guy who can't find hiking boots because my feet are too wide.

[@lovewillsetyoufree]

Hi Amanda! Thank you so much!!! I literally decided 2 days ago that I wanted to pick up hiking as a hobby! I really love nature and want to explore what’s out there. To say I am under prepared is an understatement however I m very thankful for you helpful tips! I’m definitely going to invest in the proper clothing, tools etc!!! Thank you once again 😁!

[@amanda.outside]

You are so welcome!

[@ChristinaReyn]

ahh this video is so amazing! I have been having so much trouble with finding hiking clothes that are functional and cute. Thank you for sharing!!

[@shannonlgrund]

Thank you so much for your videos... watching them has encouraged me to step up my hiking game and minimize my camping gear. A video on hygiene on a trip would be helpful. One for a back country trip and one for car camping. Just a thought!! Thanks again.

[@amanda.outside]

You're welcome!! So happy to hear that the videos have been helpful! Thank you for the video suggestions too. 💚

[@tibbyl8350]

I needed this video soooo badly. I live in South Texas we cotton it up bc it’s hella hot. All our hike are pretty short maybe 4 miles. We are going to Yellowstone and I laid out all these cotton tops for us. You SAVED us!!!!!

[@shinystar1781]

i’m not sure if you have mosquitos in utah, but here in southern ontario, it’s impossible to hike without 700 mosquitos circling your head 🤦🏻‍♀️ i’m sticking to biking now and so excited for fall hiking. i second the prana pants for hiking. they got me through a long, hot, aggressive multiday hike in morocco

[@amanda.outside]

Here in Utah, thankfully the mosquitos really aren't too bad compared to other places I've hiked!

[@bettyjorodgers8552]

Great information. Enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing.

[@carolguezen5829]

This was such a helpful video. I am going to go on my very 1st backpacking trip and this video has helped answer some great questions!

My favorite outdoor pants are the ll bean vista camp pants! My favorite pants for rock climbing approaches where I have to butt scoot over rocks are the rei trailsmith joggers

[@yy-mi3bg]

thanks so much for the video! i'm going on a day long hike with a few friends and was really struggling to come up with an outfit to wear

[@davidp517]

I loved this video, lots of great information! Since I'm still fairly new to hiking I'm still gradually expanding my hiking wardrobe. I just got myself a pair of hiking pants that I'm looking forward to testing out when the weather cools down a little more.

[@samanthareyes7601]

Love your videos! Maybe you can do a future video on more affordable but still good quality clothing and equipment. I could never spend $300 on a rain jacket 😬

[@trailheart1863]

Helly Hansen Loke rain jacket i think is a good choice, not too expensive and has served me well through some storms.

[@outdooroutfitters3658]

Very informative! Thanks for sharing.

[@rarekindbeauty]

Thank you so much! You are so specific and experienced! You are a pro! 👍👍👍🤗🌞🌞🌞👍👍👍

[@ashtonhatch7145]

You should look into Grip6 socks for hiking.

[@nigeljones8202]

Good video with solid advice. Thanks

[@katieweiher]

I love videos like this! They help me get ideas for my own outdoors wardrobe. Question: This video makes it sound like you don't wear leggings when camping/hiking; however, you're either in shorts or leggings in your other videos. Have you since changed your mind? (Asking because I have yet to find pants that fit me well and are comfortable - after 10+ years of looking - and keep landing back on leggings. It seems most advice is to get pants, but in practice, many women still wear leggings.)

[@searchingforsquatchy3862]

Excellent video as always💛

[@fashionandfear]

Excellent video! Thanks so much :D

[@pc2780]

Hi, thanks for the video. Could you please share which T-shirt are you wearing?

[@TheHikingChick1]

I live in a ticky area so almost always hike in pants. In the warmer months I find a looser fit cooler. I use the Columbia Saturday Trail Pants but love my Pranas when it's a little cooler. I'll have to try the ones you have. I like the flat waist band for backpacking. Fun edit on this one.🌻

[@amanda.outside]

Thanks for sharing! I haven't tried Columbia pants yet. The flat waistband is definitely perfect for backpacking!

[@TheHikingChick1]

@@amanda.outside I'm also a huge fan of the capilene cool daily shirts. The long sleeve is my next purchase.😎

[@jessicagonzalez5047]

For my females, especially if you have thicker thighs, I wouldn't recommend shorts. You will chaff and it hurts!! Stick to pants, I learned the hard way, hiked 12 miles with shorts and it was HORRIBLE.

[@noreligion76]

nice shorts!!!

[@beastie2488]

I need more clothes. I live three miles from the Atlantic, so all I have are board shorts, lol.

[@austinwalker9061]

I’ve done some photo work with a company called Kuhl out of Salt Lake. They make some amazing outdoor/hiking clothing you should try out if you haven’t before 👌🏼

[@thehikingnovice6474]

Thankyou for another great video I just about have all my gear for my day hikes and eventually my through hikes the last thing I need is the right clothes so this was a really helpful video for me so thanks for making it just don't think I'd looks as good in those pants lol from a guy's prospective what kind Of pants does your partner use I was looking at one here in Australia that you can unzip and turn into shorts so that way you have pants and shorts all in one

[@amanda.outside]

So I just asked Nick, and he said that he likes the Prana Brion pants and shorts, and the Zion shorts which I think are the same material, but they have cargo pockets! Thanks for watching. I'm really happy to hear that the video was helpful! 😁

[@spanishin5minutes864]

super useful! thank you!!!!

[@theobscuredbeauty]

So newbie question what do you wear under your hoodie top? do you wear a tank top or just a sports bra? what are good sports bras for hiking?

[@zaggiii]

I'm thinking about wearing yoga pants under jogger pants or cargo pants for a fall hike.. What do you think about that?

[@kevaughnjones]

THanks I like thre advice because im a novice

Hi Amanda, do you think I should size up the Arcteryx rain jacket?

[@Torr.explores]

I love this video but I hate that when you were going through your outfits I was like oh hey Athleta and was right about which items were from it. 😂 Also I just got that fleece in a different color and it’s amazing!

😂 yea I like Athleta clothing! Glad you like the fleece. I wear mine all the time!!

The sky cannon doesn’t go to a link that looks like your pants (light gray), is it a different pair?

[@MariaGarcia-js7hq]

Hi, my family and I are visiting Arches on September 20th. Any tips on clothing for Utah on September ?

[@nancydee6106]

OK so I stopped by to figure out what to wear during fall but you kind of didn’t touch on that and as a beginner I am lost I’m thinking that Patagonia hoodie actually could work? I’m starting out at like 50° and ending up at maybe 65 or 70 and hiking makes you hot too so do you think that that Patagonia hoodie would work that you love so much? I usually run hot. So I’m not looking for warmer layers although I do have some when it’s time. But right now it’s still sunny.

[@candyslife160]

What if you have to wear bladder control underwear? How would that work into the layerings?

[@ckgonzales6743]

do you know how the capaliene hoodie compares with the North Face hyperlayer hoodie?

[@amanda.outside]

I've never tried the North Face hyperlayer hoodie, but from what I can tell based on the material and product description, it does look pretty similar.

[@X_explorer]

Cool video!

[@cgvv9217]

What should you wear if you kinda have to go on a hike/walk to a mountain but you never did before so you have no real mountain clothes?

[@bobbycamarillo]

especially in utah since ya know here in utah the weather is unpredictable and bipolar 😂

[@SteadyWilli]

What about footwear?

[@mapl3af]

What is your height? I'm 5'1 I might be able to pull of Capri as full leg pants

[@danbeasley910]

Wow

[@annetcell-ly4571]

How much does your pack weigh?

[@dldptmej]

Hi! I am going to Zion & Bryce Canyon on Monday and I will probably do the classic hiking courses, such as angels landing, narrows, emerald pool and etc. Would you still suggest long shirts and wind jackets? Cuz I know it’s super hot in Utah right now 🤔

[@amanda.outside]

Yea it is definitely hot in Zion right now, but it's also monsoon season which means afternoon thunderstorms are common. If I hike in shorts and a tank top, I still carry the other layers in my backpack just in case. I hope you have a great trip! Zion and Bryce are so incredible! 🤗

[@shellchenonceau6987]

Dark clothes absorb heat & make you hotter, while pastel light colors deflect the hot suns rays.

[@robertnemeth6248]

You cannot get water proof and breathable at the same time. If there is water on jour jacket your sweat cannot escape. If your jacket is dry on the outside it may be breathable.
