FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for winter hiking?
These are standard trail trousers. While durable, they are not insulated. For colder climates, consider pairing them with a thermal base layer or choosing the specialized winter-lined versions.
How should I clean the mud off these?
Allow the mud to dry completely, then brush it off. If stains remain, a simple machine wash on a gentle cycle will typically remove any remaining residue.
Can these be worn in urban environments?
While highly functional, the design is specifically utilitarian. They work well for casual or rugged urban settings but may be too technical for formal occasions.
Is the insect protection permanent?
The repellent treatment is designed to last for many washes, but its efficacy can decrease over time depending on the intensity of cleaning.
What is the best way to determine my size?
Measure your waist at the narrowest point and consult the size guide. Since these are designed for movement, ensure you have enough room for base layers if you plan on layering.
Troubleshooting
Water-repellency seems less effective after several washes
Reactivate the coating by tumble drying the trousers on a low heat setting or using a technical fabric re-proofer spray.
Trousers feel slightly stiff
Wash with a mild detergent and avoid heavy fabric softeners to ensure the polyester maintains its intended flexibility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trousers require no special setup; simply select your size based on your standard waist measurements for a comfortable fit. For care, it is recommended to wash them in cold or warm water with a gentle detergent to preserve the water-repellent and insect-repellent coatings. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as these can interfere with the technical finishes of the polyester fabric. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the integrity of the material, though they can be tumble-dried on a low heat setting if necessary. Because they are designed with a classic cut, they pair well with a wide range of hiking boots and base layers.
