Hi there, I bought a Fjallraven Karl Zip Off MT trousers. This is the fabric used: http://www.fjallraven.com/guides/material-guides/mt-micro-travel They state that it is highly breathable, however I had the feeling that when sweating, moisture is trapped inside. Also, when trying to breathe through it, it almost blocks completely. Can anyone confirm this in particular for MT? For me it seems that the Karl Zip Off is everything else than a breathable and cool summer trousers. If I compare it to my normal Karl G1000 trousers, there is almost no difference.. Thank you, Christoph

Personally I find Fjällraven way too overpriced for what it's worth. A simple and cheap polyester pants will be a lot more breathable and with the money you save you could buy other shiny gear.
Yeah, IMHO, Fjällraven is a fashion "glamping" brand. My favorite pants du jour are the Eddie Bauer Travex pants.
27% cotton. Probably what's holding the moisture and making you feel sweaty.
