FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for cold weather?

The cropped length makes them best suited for moderate to warm weather. For colder conditions, they can be layered with thermal leggings.

How effective is the insect repellent feature?

NosiDefence fabric provides a barrier against biting insects. While effective for many common biting insects, it is recommended to use additional insect repellent for maximum protection in areas with high insect activity.

How do I clean the integrated sunglasses wipe?

The sunglasses wipe is typically a small microfiber patch attached to the garment. It can be cleaned by hand washing or machine washing with the rest of the trousers.

What is the UPF rating?

The trousers offer UPF 50+ sun protection, which means they block over 98% of harmful UV radiation.

Can I machine wash these trousers?

Yes, they can be machine washed at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softener.

How often should I reapply the DWR treatment?

The frequency depends on usage and washing. It's generally recommended to reapply when you notice water no longer beads up effectively on the fabric, typically after several washes.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The H2OShield finish may need reapplication. Clean the trousers and apply a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment, then tumble dry on a low heat setting to activate.

Minor stains are difficult to remove.

For stubborn stains, try pre-treating the area with a mild stain remover before washing. Avoid bleach.

Insects are still present.

While NosiDefence offers protection, it is not a foolproof barrier against all insects. Ensure you are also using appropriate insect repellent sprays for maximum protection in heavily infested areas.

Cons

  • Cropped length may not be suitable for all climates or user preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear trousers. No assembly or setup is required.

Compatibility: Designed for women, these trousers are suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities. They pair well with hiking boots, walking shoes, and casual footwear. Their general outdoor design makes them compatible with most outdoor apparel.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the water-repellent finish.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or line dry in the shade.
  4. Ironing: Cool iron if necessary. Avoid ironing directly on any printed labels or features.
