FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the DWR coating?
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating helps repel water and liquids, preventing them from soaking into the fabric, which also aids in stain resistance.
Can I wear knee pads with these pants?
Yes, the knees are reinforced and designed to allow for the addition of external knee pads.
What does NTOA tested and approved mean?
NTOA stands for National Tactical Officers Association. Their testing and approval indicates that the product has met rigorous standards for tactical professionals.
How many pockets are there in total?
There are 10 pockets in total, including reinforced hand pockets, a magazine pocket, a welt cell phone pocket, and two seat pockets with internal wallet pockets.
Is the fit suitable for athletic builds?
The pants feature a relaxed fit through the hip and thigh, with a straight leg. While comfortable, individuals with very muscular or athletic builds might prefer to check specific measurements or consider sizing up if a looser fit is desired.
What is the fabric blend made of?
The fabric is a blend of DWR-coated cotton ripstop and polyester, designed for breathability and durability.
Troubleshooting
Pants feel too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct waist and inseam size. The elastic waistband provides some flexibility, but proper sizing is key for the relaxed fit.
Stain or water repellency has decreased.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need reapplication over time. Follow the care instructions diligently. Consider using a reproofing spray designed for outdoor apparel after several washes.
Seams appear to be fraying.
Inspect the garment for any damage. If fraying is significant, discontinue use and contact customer support. Ensure the pants are not being overstressed beyond their intended use.
