FAQs
Are the knee pads included with the trousers?
No, the CORDURA® knee pads required to meet EN 14404 specifications are sold separately.
What is the main material of these trousers?
The trousers are made from a 275gm² fabric blend consisting of 98% cotton and 2% lycra.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the Dickies sizing chart for waist measurements. Given the cotton blend, consider if you prefer a looser or more snug fit when selecting your size.
What makes the CORDURA® reinforcement beneficial?
CORDURA® is a highly durable and abrasion-resistant material, used here to reinforce key wear areas like knee pad pockets and hem guards, significantly increasing the lifespan of the trousers.
Can these trousers be used in hot weather?
The cotton blend offers breathability, but like most work trousers, they may feel warm in very high temperatures. The fabric composition aims for a balance of durability and comfort across various conditions.
What is the purpose of the reflective heat seal chevron?
The reflective chevron is a safety feature designed to increase the wearer's visibility in low-light or hazardous working environments, such as near traffic or at dawn/dusk.
How should I wash these trousers?
Machine wash warm (40°C) with like colors. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on medium or hang dry. Iron on a medium heat setting.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel tight or restrictive
Ensure the correct size has been selected. Consider the 2% lycra for a slight stretch, but if significant restriction occurs, a size up might be necessary. Check the fit around the waist and legs.
Knee pads do not fit securely
Verify that the knee pads being used are compatible with the trousers' specifications (EN ISO 13688:2013 & EN 14404:2004 +A1:2010). Ensure the knee pads are fully inserted into the CORDURA® knee pad pockets.
Seams or CORDURA® areas showing wear prematurely
Review care instructions and ensure washing/drying methods are not damaging the fabric. Reduce exposure to highly abrasive surfaces if possible, although CORDURA® is designed for durability.
Zipper is difficult to operate
Check for fabric caught in the YKK™ zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If persistent, a small amount of graphite or wax can sometimes help lubricate the teeth.
