How many pockets do these trousers have?

Are knee pads included with the trousers?

No, knee pads are not included but the trousers are designed with integrated pockets to accommodate compatible knee pads.

What is the UPF rating of the fabric?

How should I care for my Combat Trousers?

They are machine washable at 60°C. Avoid bleaching, tumble dry on medium heat, and iron on medium heat. Wash dark colors separately and inside out.

Is the waist fully elasticated?

No, the trousers feature a half-elasticated back waist for a secure and comfortable fit.

Can these trousers be used for general wear or only for work?

While designed for workwear, their durable construction and comfortable fit make them suitable for various casual outdoor activities where practical clothing is needed.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel tight after washing.

Ensure you are following the washing instructions carefully. The Kingsmill fabric is designed to be durable but can experience minor shrinkage if exposed to excessive heat. Try ironing on a medium heat setting or wearing them to stretch slightly.

Pockets seem too small for specific tools.

While the cargo pockets are designed for ample storage, tool sizes vary. Ensure items are placed securely to prevent them from falling out. Consider a tool belt for larger equipment.

Discomfort around the waist.

The half-elasticated waist provides flexibility. Ensure the size selected is correct. If there is still discomfort, try wearing the trousers for a few days to allow them to adjust to your body shape.

Seams appear to be fraying.

The trousers feature reinforced seams, but excessive force or friction can cause wear. If minor fraying occurs, carefully trim loose threads. For significant seam failure, contact customer support.
