FAQs
What is mercerised cotton?
Mercerised cotton is treated with a process that improves its luster, strength, and dye affinity, giving it a smoother feel and a slight sheen.
What does 'garment dyed' mean?
Garment dyeing means the garment is dyed after it has been fully constructed. This results in unique color depth and subtle variations, and can give the fabric a softer handle.
How should I care for garment-dyed clothing?
It is best to wash garment-dyed items in cold water, inside out, with like colors, and use a mild detergent. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight when drying to maintain color vibrancy.
What is ripstop fabric?
Ripstop is a weaving technique designed to make fabric more resistant to tearing and ripping. It's characterized by a grid pattern of thicker threads woven into the fabric.
Are these trousers suitable for formal occasions?
These are best suited for casual to smart-casual occasions. The ripstop material and garment-dyed finish lend themselves more to relaxed styling rather than formal events.
What is the fit like on these trousers?
They are designed with a standard chino fit for adult males. Specific measurements can be found on the brand's size chart, but they aim for a comfortable, functional wear.
Can I machine dry these trousers?
Yes, you can tumble dry them on a low heat setting. However, for best results and to prolong the garment's life and color, air drying is often recommended.
Troubleshooting
Color fading unevenly
Ensure washing according to care instructions (cold wash, inside out, mild detergent). Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
This can be a characteristic of ripstop cotton. Gentle tumble drying on low heat can help soften the fabric. Avoid over-drying.
Pocket snap closure is difficult
Ensure the fabric around the snap is not bunched up. If the snap is genuinely stiff, contact customer support for potential defects, though it may loosen with use.
