Can I machine dry these pants?
No, tumble drying is not recommended. Follow the care instructions to machine wash in lukewarm water and air dry.
What is the standard for waterproofness (EN 343)?
The garment meets EN 343: 2003 + A1: 2007 Class 3, 1. This indicates the highest level of water penetration resistance and moderate water-vapor resistance.
Does this product come in other colors?

Troubleshooting
Water seepage through seams
Ensure the garment has been washed according to care instructions. Over time, excessive heat or harsh detergents can degrade seam sealing. Avoid direct ironing on seams.
Elastic suspenders losing elasticity
Avoid excessive stretching or prolonged tension on suspenders when not in use. Follow washing instructions to prevent damage to elastic components.
Zipper malfunction on inner pocket
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any debris. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. If damage persists, consult a professional repair service.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
This is unlikely with the specified care instructions. Ensure you are not using fabric softeners or harsh detergents, which can affect the fabric's properties. Re-wash with mild detergent if necessary.
