FAQs
What makes these trousers '2-way stretch'?
The fabric contains elastane (2%) which allows it to stretch in two directions (lengthwise and widthwise), providing greater flexibility and comfort during movement compared to non-stretch fabrics.
How do I ensure the trousers fit correctly?
Select your usual UK waist size. The trousers also feature an extendable hem which can be adjusted for a more precise leg length fit.
Are knee pads included with the trousers?
No, knee pads are not included. The trousers feature pockets designed to hold specific HEROCK® knee protection (models 21MI0901, 22MTR2102) which must be purchased separately to achieve EN ISO 14404 certification.
What does EN ISO 13688:2013 certification mean?
This is a general standard for protective clothing, ensuring basic requirements for ergonomics, harmlessness, aging, and compatibility with other PPE are met.
What does EN ISO 14404:2004+A1:2010 Type 2 Level 0 mean?
This specific certification relates to leg protection when kneeling. Type 2 indicates knee protection, and Level 0 signifies the lowest level of protection, typically for tasks with minimal impact or exposure to sharp objects, when used with the specified knee pads.
How durable is the reinforcement fabric?
The reinforcement fabric is 100% Oxford polyester 600D, which is a robust material known for its strength and resistance to abrasion, commonly used in high-wear areas.
Can I wear these in very hot weather?
The primary fabric blend offers breathability, but the 275g/m² weight and polyester content might make them feel warm in extremely high temperatures. The stretch and water-repellent features are more suited for varied or moderate conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions, especially avoiding fabric softeners. Consider re-applying a suitable fabric water-repellent treatment if necessary, following the product's instructions.
Knee pads do not fit properly.
Verify that you are using the compatible HEROCK® knee protection models (21MI0901, 22MTR2102). Ensure the knee pads are correctly oriented within the designated pockets.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Try ironing at a low temperature as per the care instructions. Ensure no harsh detergents were used, and avoid high heat tumble drying.
Pockets feel too tight for specific tools.
The trousers feature multiple pocket sizes. For larger items, try the dedicated thigh pockets or the ruler pocket. Note that the mobile phone pocket is specifically sized for most standard smartphones.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trousers require no specific setup beyond putting them on.

The extendable hem can be adjusted by unfolding the lower portion to suit your leg length or footwear.
