What materials are used in the construction?
The primary material is Stretch EXO SHIELD recycled polyester plain weave.
How should I clean these trousers?

Do these trousers have adjustable features?

Troubleshooting
Water seeping through seams
Ensure critically taped seams are intact. If compromised, consider seam sealing or professional repair. Reapply DWR treatment.
Reduced warmth over time
The insulation may have compressed. Ensure the garment is clean and dry. If performance is significantly degraded, professional assessment may be needed.
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth.
Fabric feels clammy or damp inside
This could indicate insufficient breathability or moisture buildup. Ensure the garment is clean and that the DWR is functioning. Consider opening zippers for ventilation if possible.
