FAQs

What material are these trousers made from?

The TuffStuff 727 Elite Work Trousers are made from a 210gsm lightweight rip-stop fabric, consisting of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton.

Are knee pads included with the trousers?

No, knee pads are not included. The trousers feature integrated knee pad pockets, allowing you to insert your own compatible knee pads.

What sizes are available?

These trousers are available in a range of waist sizes from 28-44 inches and leg lengths including Regular (30") and Long (32.5").

How should I wash and care for these trousers?

Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C with similar colours. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not bleach.

Is the reflective trim durable?

The reflective trim is designed for visibility and standard wear. It should withstand regular washing, but prolonged excessive abrasion or harsh cleaning methods may affect its reflectivity over time.

Can I wear these trousers for general outdoor activities, not just work?

Yes, their lightweight, durable, and comfortable design makes them suitable for various outdoor activities where robust clothing is beneficial, though they are specifically engineered for trade professionals.

What does 'rip-stop' fabric mean?

Rip-stop fabric is woven with a special reinforcing technique that makes it resistant to tearing and ripping. Intersecting reinforcement threads are woven at regular intervals, strengthening the fabric.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too tight or loose around the waist.

Adjust the internal waistband for a more comfortable and secure fit. If the overall size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different waist size.

Knee pad pockets feel awkward or do not hold pads securely.

Ensure you are using knee pads designed for insertion into trousers. The fit may depend on the specific knee pad model; try different compatible pads for optimal comfort and retention.

Fabric shows signs of wear in high-stress areas after initial use.

While Tuff-Tex reinforcement is applied, extreme or prolonged abrasion can still affect the fabric. Ensure you are not dragging the fabric against excessively rough surfaces. If wear is premature, contact the retailer regarding potential defects.

Zipper is difficult to close or open.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the slider back and forth. If the issue persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the teeth.
