How many pockets do these trousers have?

Can I wear knee pads with these trousers?

Yes, the trousers have top-loading knee pad pockets designed for quick and easy insertion and removal of knee pads.

What is the UPF rating of the fabric?

The fabric has a 40+ UPF rating, which means it blocks at least 98% of UV rays.

How should I wash these trousers?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on medium. Do not bleach or dry clean. Avoid fabric softeners.

Who are these trousers designed for?

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct waist size. The slim fit is designed to be snug; consider the next size up if significant restriction is felt, though this may affect the slim aesthetic. Utilize the side elastic waist for minor adjustments.

Holster pockets are uncomfortable or unnecessary

The holster pockets are designed to be removable. Detach them when not needed to experience a more standard trouser fit.

Reduced breathability

Ensure the air vents are not obstructed. Check that the garment is not over-tightened at the waist, which could restrict airflow. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can clog fabric pores.

Seams feel uncomfortable during movement

Verify correct sizing. The slim fit should allow for movement without strain. Break in the trousers through regular use, as the stretch fabric will adapt over time.
