FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for very hot weather?
The trousers are designed for comfort and protection in variable conditions. While the fabric is breathable, they are best suited for moderate temperatures. For extreme heat, consider lighter-weight options.
How effective is the water repellent finish?
The Ecoshield finish is designed to repel light rain and moisture. It is not intended for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
How do I know which size to order?
Refer to the Craghoppers sizing chart and measure your waist and inside leg accurately. Compare these measurements to the provided size guide for the best fit.
Can the belt be removed permanently?
Yes, the belt is removable and can be detached if you prefer to wear the trousers without it or use your own belt.
What does UPF40+ mean?
UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. UPF40+ means the fabric will block at least 97.5% of harmful UV rays, offering significant sun protection.
How often should I re-apply the water repellent?
The plant-based Ecoshield finish may need refreshing after multiple washes. Re-apply a suitable fabric waterproofing spray when you notice a reduction in water repellency.
Are these trousers suitable for formal occasions?
No, these trousers are designed for outdoor and active wear and have a casual appearance.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency is reduced.
The Ecoshield finish may wear over time. Re-apply a suitable fabric waterproofing spray according to product instructions after washing.
Trousers feel restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size and that the waistband is adjusted properly. The stretchy fabric should offer ample movement.
Insect bites still occurring.
While NosiDefence offers protection, it is not infallible. For areas with high insect activity, consider using additional insect repellent on exposed skin.
