Craghoppers Women's Kiwi Pro Stretch Trousers - Grey - Size 14

No, the trousers feature an Ecoshield plant-based water-repellent finish, making them resistant to light rain and splashes, but they are not fully waterproof. For heavy or prolonged rain, waterproof overtrousers would be recommended.

The trousers have a Solar Shield UPF40+ rating, offering excellent protection against harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun.

Nosi Defence is designed to help protect your skin from biting insects by incorporating an insect repellent treatment into the fabric. It provides a good level of protection for general use in moderate insect environments.

Yes, the belt is removable, allowing you to adjust the fit or use your own preferred belt.

The primary material is 96% polyamide and 4% elastane, providing durability and stretch. They are also made partly from recycled plastic bottles.

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. They are quick-drying and can be air-dried or tumble-dried on a low setting.

Yes, the lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying fabric makes them suitable for warm weather, especially when combined with their sun protection features.

The Ecoshield finish may diminish after numerous washes. Consider reapplying a fabric-specific water-repellent spray (ensure it is compatible with polyamide/elastane blends) after washing and drying.

Nosi Defence is a fabric treatment and may fade with extensive wear and washing. While it offers residual protection, for areas with severe insect threats, consider using additional insect repellent.

Ensure you are not using fabric softener, which can cause stiffness. Gentle washing and air drying should help maintain fabric softness. A cool iron can also help relax the fibers.
