FAQs
Can I remove the legs while wearing my hiking boots?
Yes, the leg openings are designed to be wide enough to pass over most standard hiking boots.
Are these trousers suitable for winter use?
While they provide good flexibility and protection, they are not insulated. For extreme winter conditions, consider the Craghoppers Kiwi Winter Lined range instead.
What does the EcoShield DWR finish do?
It is an eco-friendly coating that makes the surface of the fabric water-repellent, causing rain to bead and roll off.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the 4 zipped pockets are designed to hold modern essentials securely, including most standard-sized smartphones.
Does the fabric stretch in all directions?
Yes, the 4-way stretch polyamide ensures the fabric moves vertically and horizontally for maximum comfort.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stuck or difficult to open
Clear any debris or grit from the zip track and ensure the fabric flap isn't caught in the teeth.
Water no longer beads on the fabric
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the trousers and apply a durable water repellent (DWR) spray treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Craghoppers Kiwi Pro II trousers in peak condition, follow these care steps:
- Washing: Use a cool wash cycle with mild detergent. Avoid harsh fabric softeners that can degrade the DWR finish.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended. If you must use a tumble dryer, use a low heat setting to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fibers.
- DWR Maintenance: If the water-repellent finish wears off, use a specialized DWR re-proofer spray to restore its performance.
- Storage: Ensure the garment is completely dry before long-term storage to prevent odors or moisture accumulation.
