FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
No, these trousers are not fully waterproof. They feature a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish and are wind resistant, meaning they will shed light rain and splashes and block wind, but they are not designed for heavy or prolonged downpours.
What activities are these trousers suitable for?
They are ideal for activities requiring freedom of movement and light weather protection, such as hiking, rambling, trekking, dog walking, outdoor work, or general casual outdoor use.
What material are the trousers made from?
The trousers are primarily made from Polyester, with woven stretch softshell fabric and ripstop stretch fabric in key areas like the knees and seat.
Do these trousers have a lot of pockets?
Yes, they are multi-pocketed, featuring both front and rear pockets, all of which are zipped to keep your valuables secure during activity.
Is there any visible branding on the trousers?
No, these trousers feature no external logo branding, providing a clean and professional appearance.
How do I maintain the water repellency?
The DWR finish can wear off over time. You can often reactivate it by tumble drying on low heat (check care label first) or by applying a suitable DWR re-treatment product specifically designed for technical outdoor fabrics.
Are these trousers warm enough for winter?
While they offer wind resistance, as softshell trousers, they may not provide sufficient insulation for very cold winter conditions, especially without additional thermal layers underneath. They are best suited for mild to cool temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel too tight or restrictive during movement.
Ensure you have selected the correct waist size. While the fabric is stretchy, an incorrect base size can still lead to discomfort. The part elasticated waist offers some flexibility, but it's important to choose the right initial fit.
Water is no longer beading on the fabric surface.
This indicates the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish is wearing off. The DWR can be reactivated by tumble drying on a low heat (if care instructions allow) or by applying a specialized wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment, following the product's instructions.
Stitching appears to be coming undone or fabric is fraying.
Inspect the garment for the extent of the damage. For minor fraying, trim loose threads carefully. For significant stitching issues, consider professional repair to prevent further damage. The ripstop panels are designed to limit tears, but extreme abuse can still cause wear.
