Full details
These Craghoppers NosiLife Rif Stretch Cargo Trousers are designed for adult women seeking comfortable and protective wear for everyday adventures, particularly in warm climates.

FAQs
How does the NosiLife insect repellent work?
NosiLife is an invisible, odorless, and long-lasting insect repellent treatment woven into the fabric. It works by creating a protective barrier that deters insects from landing on the material.
Is the insect repellent safe for skin contact?
Yes, the NosiLife treatment is designed to be safe for human contact and is odorless, ensuring comfort during wear.
How long does the NosiLife treatment last?
The treatment is designed to last for the expected lifetime of the garment, provided the care instructions are followed. It is integral to the fabric, not a surface coating.
What is the UPF rating of the fabric?
The fabric provides UPF50+ protection, which is the highest rating, blocking over 98% of UV rays.
Can these trousers be worn in cold weather?
These trousers are lightweight and primarily designed for warm or hot weather. They offer minimal insulation and are not recommended for cold conditions on their own.
How do I wash these trousers to maintain their properties?
Machine wash at 30°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a low setting. Avoid using fabric softener.
Are there pockets for storage?

Troubleshooting
Insect repellent seems less effective over time.
Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely. Avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners, which can degrade the NosiLife treatment. Proper washing maintains the fabric's properties.
Trousers feel too warm for very hot, humid days.
While designed for hot climates, extreme humidity can still be challenging. Ensure proper ventilation by unzipping pockets if applicable, and consider pairing with moisture-wicking base layers.
Fit is not as expected.
Consult the size guide provided by Craghoppers. Consider the stretch fabric's properties, which allow for some give. If purchasing online, check the return policy for exchanges.
