Can I wear knee pads with these pants?

What makes the chamois special?
The included liner features a dual-density, ventilated 3D foam chamois made by Elastic Interface in Europe, designed for premium support and breathability on long rides.
How do I wash and care for the pants?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Do not use fabric softener, bleach, iron, or dry clean. Close all zippers before washing.
What does 'PFAS-free DWR' mean?
It means the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating applied to the fabric is free from Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances, making it more environmentally friendly.
Are these pants made from sustainable materials?

Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose or too tight.
Use the adjustable tabs on the waistband to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the rear elastic panel is not overstretched.
Chamois feels uncomfortable or causes chafing.
Ensure the removable liner is correctly installed and oriented. Confirm that the pant size is appropriate for your body. Consider adjusting the fit further with the waistband tabs.
Pants feel warm on very hot days.
Maximize ventilation by ensuring the laser-cut perforations are not obstructed. Consider removing the liner in extreme heat if preferred, or riding with lighter base layers.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Gently pull the zipper while ensuring the fabric is straight. A small amount of zipper lubricant or graphite can help smooth operation.
