Product Information

Full details

The Fort Splashflex Waterproof Trousers are designed for active children who need reliable protection from rain and wind. Their primary benefit is keeping kids dry and comfortable during outdoor play on wet days, offering a complete barrier against the elements. A minor caveat is that they are designed to be worn with the Splashflex Jacket for full coverage. These trousers are made from durable, waterproof, and windproof PU-coated polyester, featuring an elasticated waist and adjustable ankle hems for a secure fit.

FAQs

Are these trousers fully waterproof?

Yes, the trousers are made from 190gsm PU coated polyester with For-Tex fabric and are waterproof to 8,000mm, offering excellent protection against rain.

Can my child wear these on their own, or do they need a jacket?

These trousers provide protection for the lower body. They are designed to be worn with the Splashflex Jacket for complete barrier protection against the elements, but can be worn alone for lower body rain protection.

What age group are these trousers for?

These trousers are designed for children, with available sizes ranging from UK 1-2 years up to 9-10 years.

How should I clean the trousers?

You can machine wash them at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid bleaching, tumble drying, ironing, and dry cleaning.

Are the ankle adjustments secure?

Yes, the trousers feature studded ankle adjustments that allow for a secure fit, helping to keep water and wind out.

What is the material of the trousers?

The trousers are made from 190gsm PU coated polyester with For-Tex fabric.

Are these trousers suitable for very cold weather?

These trousers are designed for protection against water and wind. For very cold weather, layering with warm clothing underneath is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Water seeping through seams.

Ensure all seams are intact. While the fabric is waterproof, prolonged submersion or very heavy rain may eventually find weak points in heavily used seams. Check care label for washing instructions to maintain water repellency.

Trousers feel stiff after washing.

This can occur with PU-coated fabrics. Ensure you are following the non-iron care instructions. Air drying away from direct heat is best. The fabric should regain flexibility with wear.

Elasticated waist losing elasticity.

Avoid high heat drying (tumble drying or direct ironing), which can degrade elastic over time. Gentle machine washing and air drying should preserve elasticity.
