FAQs
What is the primary material of these trousers?
The trousers are made from a blend of 92% Nylon and 8% Elastane, with Cordura fabric reinforcements in high-wear areas.
Are these trousers suitable for very cold weather?
While durable, the material is relatively lightweight and focused on flexibility. For extreme cold, additional thermal layers may be necessary.
How do I clean the Cordura reinforcements?
The Cordura is integrated into the fabric and should be cleaned following the same care instructions as the rest of the trousers: machine wash at 30°C and avoid high heat drying or bleaching.
What does EN 14404 certification mean?
This certification indicates that the trousers are designed to be used with knee pads and meet safety standards for protecting the knees during work.
Can I wear these trousers for casual occasions?
While comfortable, their design is primarily for workwear. The holster pockets and slim fit give them a utilitarian appearance that may not be ideal for all casual settings.
How much do these trousers weigh?
The material weight is 260 GSM (Grams per Square Meter), which indicates a robust yet flexible fabric suitable for workwear.
What is the benefit of the inset rear pockets?
Inset rear pockets are designed to lie flat against the trouser, preventing uncomfortable bulging or snagging when sitting or wearing tool belts.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still too restrictive, consider trying a size up or exploring alternative styles if a looser fit is preferred.
Water repellency is reduced
Wash according to care instructions and avoid fabric softeners. Consider re-treating the fabric with a suitable water-repellent spray designed for technical garments.
Pockets seem stiff or difficult to access
This is often due to the reinforced Cordura material. With regular use and wear, the fabric will become more pliable. Ensure items are placed within pockets correctly to avoid snagging.
Knee pads do not fit correctly
Ensure you are using knee pads that are certified to EN 14404 standards and are designed for use with work trousers. Adjust the position of the knee pad within the pocket for a secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The trousers are designed for adult males. They are compatible with knee pads certified to EN 14404:2004 + A1:2010 standards. The slim fit is best suited for those who prefer a tailored look.
Care: Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Iron on a low setting if necessary. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the water-repellent properties of the fabric.
