Looking for a pair of trousers for me father for these cold winter days.

When he goes out foddering now, he just has a pair of standard trousers on and im sure he does be cold.

Can anyone recommend a trousers that has a warm lining on the inside ?

Thanks, but they seems to have a shell exterior. I know he wouldn't wear a shell exterior either - dont ask, he is just set in his ways

Try the Craghoppers Basecamp winter-lined trousers. I have a pair and they look like normal trousers.

Check Aldi and Lidl, they have winter stuff in at the moment, and they know more about cold weather in Germany than we do. their ski stuff is cosy warm.

I wear Armadillo trousers. I buy them at our local building merchant. The knees have extra padding and the have lots of pockets. I find them warm but the will be pricier than aldi / lidl.

Where is the best place to buy these sort of trousers - some outdoor pursuit place like millets or something is it ?

How about moleskin trousers? Or maybe golf trousers?

I bought a pair of those as well about 5 years ago. Very hard wearing but didn't turn out to be as waterproof as they were supposed to be. Got them in barretts

When hiking a lot I used craghoppers or something like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Combat-thermal-fleece-trousers-bottoms/dp/B009NYXNDU/ref=sr_1_3?s=clothing&ie=UTF8&qid=1384973987&sr=1-3&keywords=mens+fleece+lined+trousers

or something like this?

More expensive but no shellac finish and it's still water repellent.

Shaws and Debenhams often have a Craghoppers section. I only buy when stuff is on sale. I'm tight like that!

Some of the laydeez on her wear a skirt, so any trousers should be an upgrade.

Great heat in a good pair of overalls if he needs to go heavy duty.

Wear them myself, the pocket that hangs out is great for holding the wooly hat
