FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for winter hiking?

No, these capris are lightweight and breathable, designed primarily for warm-to-mild weather conditions.

Do they provide protection from the sun?

Yes, they feature a UPF 50+ sun protection treatment, which provides significant shielding from UV radiation.

Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

The pockets are designed for essentials and light items, though fit may vary depending on the size and weight of your specific mobile device.

How do I choose the right size?

The capris feature an elastic waistband for a flexible fit, so follow the standard UK size guide to ensure a comfortable fit around the waist and hips.

Can I use these for swimming?

While the fabric is quick-drying, these are designed for hiking and general wear, not specifically as swimwear.

Is the fabric prone to wrinkling in luggage?

The material is chosen for travel and is generally resistant to heavy creasing when folded properly.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels slightly stiff after multiple washes

Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and interfere with the quick-drying and moisture-wicking properties.

Elastic waistband feeling loose after long-term use

Ensure that the waistband is not exposed to extreme high heat in the dryer, which can cause the elastic fibers to degrade over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Explorer Capris, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cold or warm water with like colors. Avoid heavy detergents that might strip the fabric's specialized treatments.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the elasticity and fabric fibers. If using a machine, tumble dry on low heat.
  3. Storage: Fold neatly or hang them in a cool, dry place. Because they are lightweight, they pack compactly into any suitcase or hiking pack.
  4. Compatibility: These capris pair well with moisture-wicking baselayers or standard cotton tops, making them easy to incorporate into your existing outdoor wardrobe.
