FAQs

What is the primary safety standard for these trousers?

The trousers are certified to EN ISO 20471 - class 1, which relates to high-visibility clothing.

Can I use any kneepads with these trousers?

While the pockets are designed for kneepads, we recommend using MASCOT Waterloo, MASCOT Grant, MASCOT Likasi, and 20118-915 for optimal fit and performance.

How do I adjust the leg length?

Each standard leg length can be lengthened by 3 cm by carefully releasing the internal red stitches located at the hem.

What kind of fabric are these trousers made from?

They are made from a combination of lightweight fabric quality 236 and four-way stretch fabric quality 511, with CORDURA reinforcements on the kneepad pockets.

What are the cleaning instructions?

They can be machine washed at 40°C. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. Professional dry-cleaning is permitted.

What is the purpose of the 'prepared for holster pockets' feature?

This means the trousers have the necessary attachments (buttons) to easily add compatible holster pockets (model 19450-126) for extra tool storage.

Are these trousers waterproof?

The product description mentions 'Fluorescent contrast colour and with reflective tapes' and 'Stretch fabric on parts of the product', but does not state waterproof capabilities. They are designed with durable and functional materials for work environments.

Troubleshooting

Reflective tapes losing reflectivity

Ensure tapes are cleaned gently according to care instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods that can damage the reflective coating.

Kneepad pockets not fitting correctly

Verify that you are using compatible kneepads (e.g., MASCOT Waterloo, Grant, Likasi, or 20118-915). Ensure the kneepads are inserted properly into the adjustable CORDURA pockets.

Limited range of motion

Check if the stretch fabric areas are positioned correctly. Ensure the trousers fit properly in the waist and leg. The ergonomic design and stretch fabric should provide ample movement.

Trousers feel too short

Release the internal red stitches along the leg hem to extend the standard leg length by up to 3 cm. Ensure the release is done carefully to avoid damaging the fabric.

Logo placement affects certification

Review the EN ISO 20471 certification guidelines regarding logo size and placement. Ensure any applied logos do not exceed the maximum allowed area (0.0300 m² for 76 cm leg length, 0.0500 m² for 82+90 cm) and that no single logo covers more than 50% of the total approved area on the front or back.
