FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?

Yes, the fabric is designed for summer trails and offers good breathability. They are lightweight and provide UPF 50+ sun protection, making them ideal for warm conditions.

How effective is the NosiDefence against insects?

NosiDefence is designed to provide a barrier against biting insects like mosquitoes. While highly effective, it's not a substitute for insect repellent in areas with high insect populations.

Can I wear these for swimming?

These shorts are water-repellent and quick-drying, but they are not designed for swimming. They are intended for protection against light rain and splashes during outdoor activities.

How do I maintain the water-repellent finish?

To maintain the finish, avoid using fabric softeners or bleach when washing. You can re-apply a specific DWR treatment after several washes if you notice reduced water repellency.

What should I do if I get a stain on the shorts?

The H2OShield finish helps repel water-based stains. For fresh stains, blot the area immediately with a clean cloth. For more stubborn stains, follow the standard washing instructions.

What is the length of the shorts?

The inseam length can vary slightly by size. For specific measurements, please refer to the product's detailed specifications or size guide on the retailer's website.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may wear off over time. Re-apply a suitable DWR treatment following product instructions, or consider that the fabric's inherent water resistance may lessen with use.

Fit is not as expected.

Refer to the Craghoppers sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure you are measuring your waist and hips correctly. Different styles may have slightly different fits.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. If resistance persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant can help. Avoid forcing the zipper.
