These Mountain Warehouse Pakka II Waterproof Over Trousers are designed for active children who need reliable protection from the elements during outdoor play or travel. Their key benefit is providing a waterproof and breathable barrier against rain, ensuring comfort. A potential caveat is that they are an over-trouser, meaning they are intended to be worn over other clothing.

No, these are lightweight over-trousers designed for waterproof protection and breathability. They are not insulated and are intended to be worn over other clothing for warmth.
A 15000mm rating indicates a high level of waterproofing, meaning the fabric can withstand water pressure equivalent to a 15-meter column of water before it starts to leak. This is suitable for heavy rain.
Ensure the trousers are dry and then fold or roll them neatly. Place the folded trousers into the provided packaway bag and secure it. This makes them compact for storage or travel.
While breathable, they are still an extra layer. They are best suited for cooler, wet weather. In very hot conditions, the breathability might not be sufficient to prevent overheating.
Taped seams are strips of waterproof tape bonded over the stitched seams inside the garment. This prevents water from leaking through the needle holes made during sewing, enhancing the overall waterproofing.
Re-proofing frequency depends on usage and washing. It's recommended to re-proof when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface or is starting to soak into the fabric, typically after several washes or heavy use.
These specific trousers are for kids and are available in size 9-10 years, in black. Other colours and sizes may be available for this model.
This could be due to sweat or the waterproof coating needing re-application. Ensure the garment is not too tight and consider re-waterproofing if performance has decreased.
Check if the taped seams are intact. If they appear to be peeling or damaged, the waterproofing may be compromised. Professional repair or replacement might be necessary.
Ensure the poppers are aligned correctly before fastening. If they feel stiff, try gently working them back and forth a few times. Avoid forcing them.
The elasticated waistband provides some adjustment. If the fit is still not ideal, consider the next size up or down for better comfort and layering capability.
Setup: These trousers require no setup. They are ready to wear straight out of the packaway bag. Simply ensure the child tries them on for size and comfort, adjusting the elasticated waistband if necessary.
Compatibility: The Pakka II Waterproof Over Trousers are designed to be worn over regular clothing. Ensure the size chosen allows for comfortable layering without restricting movement.
Care Instructions: To maintain the waterproof and breathable qualities of the fabric:
