FAQs
Are these capris suitable for high-intensity exercise?
Yes, the four-way stretch and moisture-wicking properties make them excellent for activities like yoga, hiking, and light jogging.
Is the fabric see-through?
No, the herringbone fabric is designed to be durable and opaque, providing full coverage during movement.
Can I wear these in the rain?
They feature a DWR finish that repels light rain, but they are not waterproof and will eventually soak through in heavy downpours.
How should I choose my size?
The capris feature a standard fit; for a trimmer feel, choose your normal size, or consider sizing up if you prefer a looser fit around the thighs.
Does the zipper pocket fit a modern smartphone?
The concealed zip pocket is designed for small essentials like keys, a credit card, or cash, rather than large smartphones.
Troubleshooting
Fabric no longer repels water
The DWR coating may have worn off. Wash the garment to remove oils and dirt, then apply a DWR-restoring spray and heat-activate according to the product instructions.
Moisture is not wicking as expected
This is often caused by residue from liquid fabric softeners. Run an extra rinse cycle or re-wash with a gentle, non-detergent technical wash to strip away the residue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the fabric and the performance of the DWR coating, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water using a mild, technical detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the moisture-wicking pores of the fabric.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry. Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the DWR finish for a longer period.
- Re-treating DWR: If water stops beading up on the surface after extensive use, consider using a DWR spray-on treatment to restore the water-repellent properties.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods to preserve fabric color.
