FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for very hot weather?
While the fabric is breathable and quick-drying, the nylon and elastane blend may feel warm in extreme heat. They are best suited for moderate to warm conditions where sun and insect protection are needed.
How effective is the NosiDefence against mosquitoes?
NosiDefence is designed to help protect your skin from insect bites, including those from mosquitoes. Its effectiveness can depend on the density of insects and the specific species.
Can the water repellent finish be reapplied?
Yes, the plant-based Ecoshield finish can be maintained by using eco-friendly re-waterproofing treatments designed for technical outdoor apparel after washing.
What does UPF40+ mean?
UPF40+ means the fabric will block at least 97.5% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent protection for your skin.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the Craghoppers sizing chart available on the product page or website. Measure your waist and inseam and compare these with the provided measurements for the best fit.
Are these trousers suitable for a formal occasion?
These trousers are designed for outdoor and active use, featuring functional elements like a removable belt and protective technologies. They are not typically considered formal wear.
How do I wash these trousers to maintain their properties?
Wash at 30°C with similar colours, using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat and cool iron if needed. Fasten all zips and buckles before washing.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
The Ecoshield finish can diminish over time. Consider re-applying a compatible eco-friendly water repellent treatment after washing.
Fit is too tight or too loose.
Adjust the removable belt for a tighter fit. If the overall fit is incorrect, consult the size chart and consider exchanging for a different size, paying close attention to waist and inseam measurements.
Insect protection effectiveness seems lower.
NosiDefence provides a physical barrier and treatment. Ensure trousers are clean and undamaged for optimal performance. The effectiveness can vary depending on insect type and density.
