Product Information

Full details

The Mountain Warehouse Pakka II Waterproof Over Trousers are designed for children who need reliable protection from the elements during outdoor activities. Their key benefit is offering robust waterproofing and breathability in a lightweight, packable design. A potential caveat is that they are over-trousers, meaning they are intended to be worn over existing clothing, so proper sizing is essential for comfort and full coverage. These trousers feature a waterproof rating of 15000mm, taped seams for enhanced protection, and a breathable, moisture-wicking fabric to keep young adventurers dry and comfortable.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these trousers fully waterproof?

Yes, they have a waterproof rating of 15000mm and feature taped seams, providing excellent protection against rain.

Can children wear these on their own, or do they need other trousers underneath?

These are designed as over-trousers, meaning they are intended to be worn over another layer of clothing, such as regular trousers or leggings, for added protection from the elements.

How do I wash the Pakka II Waterproof Over Trousers?

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Do not iron.

What does 'IsoDry' technology mean?

IsoDry is a fabric technology that ensures the garment is waterproof and breathable. It allows perspiration vapor to escape while preventing rain from entering, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable.

Do these trousers come with a bag?

Yes, the trousers include a packaway bag, making them easy to store and transport when not in use.

What is the waterproof rating (15000mm) and what does it signify?

A waterproof rating of 15000mm indicates that the fabric can withstand 15 meters of water pressure before leakage occurs. This is considered highly waterproof and suitable for heavy rain.

What material are these trousers made from?

They are primarily made from Polyester, a durable and quick-drying synthetic fabric.

Troubleshooting

Trousers leak water

Ensure all seams are properly taped. Re-apply a waterproofing treatment if the water-repellent finish has worn off. Check for any accidental damage to the fabric.

Child feels damp or sweaty inside

Verify that the 'Breathable' and 'Moisture Wicking' features are functioning. Ensure the child is not overheating due to other clothing layers. Proper ventilation around the waistband can help.

Popper fastening is difficult

Check that the poppers are clean and free from debris. If the fabric is stiff, gently work the poppers back and forth. For younger children, adult assistance may be needed.

Trousers are too tight or too loose

Ensure the correct size was selected based on the child's measurements and the intended clothing to be worn underneath. The elasticated waistband offers some adjustability, but proper initial sizing is key.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing for wet weather protection.
  • Breathable fabric prevents discomfort from sweat.
  • Lightweight and easy to pack, ideal for travel or emergencies.
  • Durable construction suitable for active children.
  • Simple design for quick dressing.

Cons

  • Relies on accurate sizing for optimal fit and function.
  • Popper fastening may be challenging for very young children to operate independently.
  • Primarily an outer layer; may require warmer base layers in very cold conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are over-trousers designed to be worn over existing clothing. Ensure you select the correct size to fit comfortably over your child's regular trousers or leggings. The elasticated waistband and popper fastening are designed for immediate use without complex setup.

Compatibility: The Pakka II Waterproof Over Trousers are compatible with most types of children's everyday wear, including jeans, leggings, and track pants. They are suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities such as hiking, playing in the garden, walking, and general outdoor exploration.

Care Instructions: To maintain the waterproof and breathable qualities of the fabric:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the fabric's performance.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat sources. Do not iron.
  3. Re-proofing: Periodically, especially after washing, consider using a waterproofing treatment designed for technical outdoor gear to refresh the water-repellent finish.
