Troubleshooting
Trousers feel stiff after washing
This is normal for heavyweight canvas. Wear them for a short period to break them in, or tumble dry on a low setting with a damp cloth.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Holster pockets feel cumbersome when empty
Detach the holster pockets when not in use for tasks that do not require them, to improve comfort and reduce bulk.
Knee pads shift during use
Ensure you are using knee pads designed for internal pockets and that they fit snugly. Adjust the position of the knee pads before starting work.
