Can I machine wash these pants?

Are the materials safe for the environment?

What is the primary use case for these pants?

Troubleshooting

Pants are not fully waterproof

Ensure all seams are intact. Check care instructions; improper washing or drying can compromise waterproof coatings. Re-evaluate if seams have been exposed to harsh chemicals.

Fit is too tight or too loose

Adjust the elastic waistband and use the snap buttons at the leg openings for a customized fit. If the overall size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are not using bleach, high heat drying, or ironing, as these can damage the PU coating. Gentle washing according to instructions should prevent this.
