Our Quechua global design centre is based in Passy, at the foot of Mont-Blanc in Haute-Savoie. This location means we can test our products on natural terrain.
These hiking trousers have undergone abrasion tests. Before being chosen, the trouser material has been tested in our Decathlon Sportslab laboratory; then, once designed, the pants were worn with a loaded backpack for 10 hours of active walking.
These trousers were tested and approved in April 2019 by a group of testers during a 2-hour hike at the foot of the Arpenaz waterfall in Haute-Savoie.
In order to meet your requirements, Quechua products are tested in the wild in the conditions you encounter during your hikes.
Our teams, as well as a tester panel (made up of partners, ambassadors and customers) test products throughout their development until they go to market.
