FAQs
How long does the anti-insect treatment last?
The anti-insect treatment is designed to provide protection for a number of washes, typically around 20-30, depending on washing and care. Its effectiveness may gradually diminish over time.
Are these trousers waterproof?
No, they are not fully waterproof. They feature a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish which helps to repel light rain and moisture, but they are not designed for heavy downpours.
What is the material composition?
The trousers are made from Isoflex active stretch fabric, which is 86% polyamide and 14% elastane.
Can I wear these in very hot weather?
Yes, they are lightweight and quick-drying, making them suitable for warm weather. The UPF 50+ protection also helps against sun exposure.
How should I wash these trousers?
Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and high heat for drying or ironing. Refer to the care label for detailed instructions.
Do they have many pockets?
These trousers feature two lower cargo pockets for storing essentials.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The articulated knee design and stretch fabric are designed for movement, so a proper fit is key.
Reduced effectiveness of anti-insect treatment.
The treatment's efficacy may decrease with frequent washing. Follow care instructions carefully and consider reapplying an appropriate fabric-safe insect repellent treatment if needed, after consulting product care guidelines.
Water is not repelling effectively.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. This can often be restored by washing the trousers with a specific DWR re-proofer or by tumble drying on a low heat setting after washing (check care label for confirmation).
