FAQs

What material are these trousers made from?

The main fabric is a durable Kingsmill Polycotton blend (65% Recycled Polyester, 35% Cotton, 245g). The stretch panels are made from Kingsmill Polyester Stretch (93% Recycled Polyester, 7% Elastane, 195g).

Are knee pads included with the trousers?

No, knee pads are not included. The trousers feature pockets designed to accommodate knee pads, which must be purchased separately.

How do I adjust the leg length?

The trousers have an extendable leg length. The regular length (31") can be extended to 33" by carefully unpicking internal stitching. This provides a way to fine-tune the fit.

Can I wash these trousers in a washing machine?

Yes, the trousers are machine washable. It is recommended to wash at 60°C, but a 40° wash is also suitable and can help preserve the fabric. Always follow the specific care label instructions.

What does UPF 40+ rating mean?

UPF 40+ means the fabric is rated to block at least 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, offering significant protection against sun exposure during outdoor work.

Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?

The polyester blend and stretch panels offer breathability and flexibility, making them suitable for various conditions. However, for extremely high temperatures, lighter fabrics might be preferred by some users.

What is the difference between the Polycotton and Polyester Stretch fabrics used?

The Polycotton fabric provides the primary durability and structure, while the Polyester Stretch fabric is used in areas requiring high flexibility and ease of movement, like the crotch and behind the knees.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct waist size. Utilize the side elastic waist for a more adaptable fit. If needed, consider a size up or explore alternative fits if available.

Pockets do not securely hold items.

Ensure items are placed correctly within the intended pockets. For the zipped thigh pocket, confirm the zipper is fully closed. Holster pockets are designed for specific tools; ensure they are seated properly.

Fabric appears worn after a short period.

Review the washing and care instructions. Over-washing, high-heat drying, or improper detergent use can degrade fabric. Avoid abrasive contact where possible.

Leg length is incorrect.

The trousers feature an extendable leg length. Check if the internal stitching has been adjusted. If the standard length is too short, it cannot be extended. If the regular length is too long, it can be tailored or adjusted.
