Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Workwear Mandal Bib Trousers are designed for adult males who need reliable waterproof protection in demanding work environments. Their key benefit is providing robust water resistance and durability, ensuring comfort during wet conditions. A potential caveat is their specific focus on waterproofing, which might mean less breathability in very hot, dry conditions. These bib trousers are constructed from 100% Polyester with a PVC coating, offering a substantial 410 g/m² weight for durability. Key features include a waterproof fabric and construction, an inner chest pocket with a zipper for secure storage, adjustable elastic suspenders for a customizable fit, and push-button adjustments at the hem for easy wear over boots.

FAQs
Are these trousers breathable?
These bib trousers are designed for maximum waterproofing with a PVC coating. While they offer protection, they may have limited breathability compared to highly technical, breathable fabrics, especially in very warm conditions.
What is the weight of the fabric?
The fabric is 410 g/m², indicating a heavy-duty material designed for durability and robust protection.
Can I wear these for extreme cold weather?
These bib trousers are primarily designed for waterproofing and protection from rain and water. They do not offer significant insulation. For cold weather, layering warm clothing underneath is recommended.
How do I clean the trousers?
Machine wash cold (30°C) with mild detergent. Avoid bleach, high heat drying, ironing, and dry cleaning. Rinse thoroughly after exposure to salt water or chemicals.
What does EN 343 3,1 certification mean?
EN 343 is a European standard for protective clothing against rain. A rating of '3' indicates the highest level of water-repellency, and '1' indicates a good level of breathability.
How do I adjust the fit?
The fit can be adjusted using the elastic suspenders and the push-button closures at the hem. The suspenders can be tightened or loosened, and the hem buttons allow for a snug fit over boots.
What is the material composition?
The trousers are made of 100% Polyester with a PVC coating.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping through seams.
Ensure all seams are intact. If damage is present, repair with appropriate waterproof sealant. Check that the garment has not been over-stressed beyond its designed limits.
Suspensers not staying adjusted.
Check the adjustment buckles for any debris or damage. Ensure they are properly secured. If the elastic has lost its tension, consider replacement.
Fabric feels stiff.
This can occur with PVC-coated fabrics, especially after washing or in cold temperatures. Try warming the garment slightly or wearing it; movement will typically soften the material. Ensure care instructions regarding washing and drying are followed.
Zipper on inner pocket is difficult to use.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. Apply a zipper lubricant if necessary.
