Featuring integrated insect repellency and UV protection, these trousers offer excellent utility for long treks; however, the relaxed fit and heavier cotton-blend material may feel less suited for high-intensity athletic activities where streamlined, technical gear is preferred.

FAQs
Can the insect protection be washed out?
No, the Nosi Defence technology is embedded within the fibres of the garment and is designed to last for the life of the product.
Are these trousers waterproof?
They are showerproof and water-repellent, meaning they handle light rain and splashes well, but they are not fully waterproof or seam-sealed for heavy downpours.
What is the fit like?
They feature a relaxed fit, designed for freedom of movement and comfort during long days of hiking.
Can I wear these in very hot weather?
Yes, they feature UPF40+ sun protection and a cotton/polyester blend that is breathable enough for varied warm-weather hiking conditions.
How do I choose the right size?
The trousers come with a part-elasticated waist to accommodate different body types; ensure you measure your natural waist size to align with the UK sizing provided.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency is wearing off
Wash the trousers and dry them on a low heat setting to help reactivate the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish.
Difficulty with zipper movement
Check the pocket tracks for grit or debris; clear any obstructions and ensure the fabric is pulled taut when zipping.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Craghoppers Kiwi Classic Trousers, follow standard machine wash guidelines. Because they feature a water-repellent finish, avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibres and diminish the effectiveness of the water repellency. If the garment stops shedding water after significant wear, a standard wash and low-heat tumble dry can often reactivate the finish. When storing for the season, ensure they are completely dry before putting them away in a dark, cool place to preserve the efficacy of the embedded technology.
