Guideline in Selecting Some of the Trek Gear:
WALKING BOOTS:
Suitable boots are made of leather or leather/Cordura, depending on the length and difficulty of your trek, and should have ankle support and a durable sole. Preferably Vibram for better grip in muddy or icy/snowy conditions. Boots should be generously fitting with ample room for toes. Note that thicker weight socks are also worn in the cold, and that foot can swell a little when you have been trekking in the heat and trekking at altitudes in Nepal's Himalayas.
LIGHTWEIGHT PANTS:
It should be loose-fitting and quick-drying, such as polyamide or microfiber. Note that cotton often takes a long time to dry in the mountains. Jeans are not suitable for trekking.
WARM TROUSERS:
It is for camping wear and trekking on cold days. Thick fleece (200 or 300wt) or wool or fleecy tracksuit pants are recommended, but these are not effective when wet.
WATER BOTTLE:
At least one liter. We strongly recommend two 1-liter bottles as the minimum to ensure maximum hydration. They should be of good quality to withstand being filled daily with boiling water and will always remain watertight.
DAY PACK:
A minimum of 40 -50 liter capacity, with a comfortable harness, so that most of the weight rests on your hips rather than shoulders. The more durable the fabric, the more waterproof it will be.
