FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for very cold weather?

These are lightweight trousers designed for active use and quick drying. They may not provide enough insulation for extreme cold weather. Consider layering with thermal base layers for added warmth.

How do I know the correct size for my child?

Refer to the size guide provided by Dare 2b, which typically correlates UK children's sizes with measurements. The adjustable waist also offers some flexibility.

Can these trousers be worn year-round?

Yes, they are versatile. They are excellent for warmer months and active play due to their breathability and sun protection. In cooler months, they can be worn as an outer layer over thermal leggings.

What does UPF 50+ protection mean?

UPF 50+ means the fabric blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays, offering excellent protection for your child's skin.

How should I wash the trousers to maintain their performance?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble dry on low heat. Reapply water repellent treatment periodically to maintain performance.

Are these trousers unisex?

Yes, the design is unisex, making them suitable for all children.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel restrictive

Ensure the adjustable waist is set correctly for a comfortable fit. The articulated knees are designed for movement, but check that the size is appropriate for the child.

Water repellency seems reduced

Re-apply a water-repellent treatment suitable for outdoor clothing after washing, following the product's instructions.

Stains are difficult to remove

Treat stains promptly with a mild detergent before washing. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive rubbing which can damage the fabric.
