FAQs
Are these trousers fully waterproof?
No, the Pentre Stretch Trousers II have a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which means they can shed light rain and moisture, but they are not fully waterproof and may not perform in heavy downpours.
What type of outdoor activities are these trousers best suited for?
They are ideal for hiking, trekking, climbing, walking, and general outdoor adventures where freedom of movement and protection from light weather are important.
How do I choose the correct leg length?
The trousers are available in Short, Regular, and Long leg lengths. It is recommended to measure your inside leg or compare with a pair of well-fitting trousers to determine the best fit for your height.
Can I wear these trousers in hot weather?
Yes, the breathable stretch fabric and UPF sun protection make them suitable for warm weather, especially when protection from the sun is needed. However, in very high temperatures, lighter-weight options might be preferred.
How should I care for the DWR finish?
To maintain the DWR finish, machine wash cool with a mild detergent, avoid fabric softener, and do not tumble dry. Periodically re-applying a DWR treatment can help restore its effectiveness.
What does ISOFLEX active stretch fabric mean?
ISOFLEX is Regatta's own brand of stretch fabric, engineered to provide excellent flexibility and freedom of movement, making it ideal for active outdoor pursuits.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced
Wash the trousers using a technical wash and follow up with a re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment designed for outdoor clothing. Ensure no fabric softener is used, as this can impair water repellency.
Waistband feels too loose or tight
Adjust the internal drawcord to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure you selected the correct size based on your measurements.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding harsh chemicals. Reshape the trousers while damp and allow them to air dry. Avoid high heat drying.
