Tick resistant trousers

Just apply permethrin spray to your favourite trousers. Let it dry and then wear them. I use the Lifesystems one and get very few ticks, even in places crawling with the little bastards.
 
I know the Scotland have a zip and velcro at the ankle, the waist is fine but the legs are a bit too long but im not that fussed as they are tucked into boots, or you could wear a pair of gaiters.
You will be lucky to get a tailor made type fit with any of these type of shooting trousers.

I have not long treated all my gear with the Lifesystem, 3 craghopper shirts, and a pair of lightweight craghopper trousers, even though the shirts are already treated its a belt and braces.

Soaked all my gear in this stuff last year, didn’t get any ticks all season.

I worked in sub-Sahara Africa for years and all of our clothes that went to the laundry were subjected to a permethrin wash. Cannot recall being bitten by anything despite being surrounded constantly by every type of biting insect imaginable.
