Oxford Rainseal Over Trouser - Fluo Yellow

No, the Oxford Rainseal Over Trousers are intelligently sized to fit over your normal riding gear, so you should purchase your usual size.

These over trousers are primarily designed for waterproofing and are half mesh lined. They do not provide significant thermal insulation on their own but will help to keep the wind chill off your legs when worn over existing gear.

Hand wash with warm water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and abrasive cleaners. Hang dry away from direct heat.

The half mesh lining provides a more comfortable interior against your skin and can help with breathability compared to a fully waterproof inner lining.

While they offer waterproof protection, they are designed as an over-garment. Wearing them alone may result in a less secure fit, particularly around the waist and ankles.

The trousers feature 360° reflective detailing, significantly enhancing your visibility to other road users from all angles in low-light or wet conditions.

The ankle zippers are designed to be water-resistant. Ensure they are fully zipped and that the storm flap over the zipper is correctly positioned to maximize protection. If significant leakage occurs, check for damage to the zipper or flap.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check that the zippered ankle openings are fully extended and that the elasticated waist and hems are adjusted correctly for maximum flexibility.

Verify that the seams are fully taped. If the tape appears damaged or is peeling, the waterproof integrity may be compromised. Consider re-taping or replacing the garment if severe.

Ensure the trousers are completely dry and folded as flat as possible before attempting to pack them. Lay them flat, smooth out major creases, and then roll or fold them tightly towards the integrated waistpack.

Avoid harsh scrubbing or machine washing/drying. Gently clean around the reflective areas with a soft, damp cloth. If damage is significant, the visibility may be reduced.
