FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?

With a 160gsm weight and breathable fabric blend, they are suitable for warm conditions, offering sun protection and insect repellency. For extreme heat, lighter options might be considered.

How do I know if the fit is right?

The trousers feature a tailored fit with a partially elasticated waistband. Refer to the size guide for specific measurements and consider trying them on if possible.

Can I wash these trousers with regular laundry?

It is recommended to wash them with similar colors at 30°C. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach or fabric softeners which can compromise the fabric's protective properties.

What does 'peached finish' mean?

A peached finish involves a process that lightly brushes the fabric's surface, giving it a soft, suede-like feel and a slightly matte appearance.

How effective is the insect repellent technology?

The NosiDefence technology is designed to provide a barrier against biting insects. Its effectiveness is inherent to the fabric treatment and can diminish over many washes.

Are these trousers waterproof?

They feature a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, which provides resistance to light rain and splashes. They are not fully waterproof and should not be relied upon in heavy downpours.

What is the UPF rating?

The trousers offer UPF 40+ sun protection, meaning they block over 97.5% of UV rays.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The DWR finish may need reapplication. Clean the trousers and apply a suitable waterproofing spray according to product instructions.

Insect repellent effect is less noticeable.

The NosiDefence treatment can diminish over time with washing. Ensure proper washing care and consider the lifespan of the treatment. For immediate needs, use topical insect repellent.

Trousers feel stiff after washing.

Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. A gentle iron on the reverse side may also help restore softness.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent protection against insects and UV rays.
  • Durable design with reinforced knees and seat.
  • Multiple pockets offer practical storage solutions.
  • Comfortable partially elasticated waistband.
  • Made with recycled materials and Better Cotton Initiative cotton.

Cons

  • Tailored fit may not be suitable for all preferences.
  • Peached finish might require specific care to maintain.
  • Limited color options in this specific plaid pattern.
  • The 160gsm weight might be too light for very cold weather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trousers require no specific setup. They are compatible with standard outdoor apparel and footwear. To maintain their performance and longevity:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fabric's protective treatments.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Avoid direct high heat, which can damage the fabric and its finishes.
  • Ironing: Iron on a low setting if necessary, preferably on the reverse side. Avoid ironing directly over any reinforced areas or decorative elements.
  • Re-treatment: For optimal water repellency, consider occasional re-treatment with a waterproofing spray suitable for outdoor fabrics.
