FAQs
Are these pants suitable for all seasons?
These pants are designed for all-weather performance, featuring a waterproof liner and a fixed thermal liner. They are best suited for three-season use (spring, autumn, winter). For very hot summer conditions, the thermal liner might make them feel warm, and dedicated summer riding pants might be more comfortable.
What type of jacket can I connect these pants to?
These pants have a short connection zip designed to connect with compatible Oxford jackets. It is recommended to check the specific compatibility of your Oxford jacket model.
How do I clean the waterproof liner?
The pants should be washed according to the care instructions: machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. Ensure all zips and Velcro are fastened before washing.
Are the knee protectors removable?
Yes, the CE Level 1 rated knee protectors are typically accessible and removable via internal pockets, allowing for easier cleaning of the pants or replacement of the protectors if needed.
What is the main material of the pants?
The outer shell is constructed from a durable Polyester 600D material, providing good abrasion resistance and longevity for commuting.
What does CE Level A certification mean?
CE Level A certification (EN 17092-4:2020) indicates that the garment offers a basic level of abrasion resistance and impact protection suitable for urban riding and scooters, where speeds are generally lower.
Can I wear jeans under these pants?
Yes, these pants are designed to be worn over your regular clothing. The adjustable fit allows space for comfortable undergarments or lighter trousers like jeans, depending on the size chosen.
Troubleshooting
Water ingress despite waterproof liner.
Ensure all zips are fully closed and sealed. Check the main leg zippers and pocket zippers for damage or wear. Verify that the connection zip to the jacket is properly secured to prevent water from entering at the waist.
Pants feel too loose or too tight.
Utilize the adjustable waist tabs and Velcro leg closures to achieve a customized fit. Ensure the pants are not overly tight, as this can restrict movement and reduce comfort.
Thermal liner is not warm enough.
Consider wearing additional thermal base layers underneath the pants for extra warmth in very cold conditions. The fixed thermal liner is designed for moderate cold; layering is key for extreme temperatures.
Reflective details fading.
Avoid harsh detergents and high washing temperatures. Do not tumble dry or iron the pants, as these can damage the reflective elements over time. Follow the care instructions strictly.
