FAQs

Are these trousers waterproof?

No, the Rohan Stretch Bags are not waterproof. They are designed to be water-resistant and quick-drying, making them suitable for light rain or splashes, but not for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the Rohan sizing chart for accurate measurements. The trousers are designed for a comfortable fit with the addition of side expansion panels for adjustment.

Can I wear these in very hot weather?

Yes, the lightweight and quick-drying nature of the MultiFlex fabric makes them suitable for warm weather conditions.

What is MultiFlex fabric?

MultiFlex is a proprietary fabric developed by Rohan that offers a high degree of stretch and flexibility, combined with durability and quick-drying properties.

How often should I wash these trousers?

Wash them as needed, following the care instructions. Regular washing with a mild detergent will help maintain the fabric's performance and hygiene.

Can the reinforced panels be repaired?

Yes, the reinforced seat and knee panels are durable but can be repaired by a professional or with appropriate fabric repair kits if significant wear occurs.

Troubleshooting

Reduced flexibility after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can degrade the fabric's performance. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat.

Zippers becoming stiff

Clean the zipper track with a soft brush and a damp cloth. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite from a pencil to the teeth if necessary.

UPF protection seems lower

Remember that UPF protection decreases when the fabric is stretched or wet. For maximum protection, ensure a proper fit and allow the trousers to dry fully. Consider additional sun protection measures if in prolonged intense sun.

Fit feels restrictive during certain movements

Utilize the side expansion panels to adjust the fit for greater comfort. Ensure the correct size was selected based on the size guide.
