FAQs
Are knee pads included with the trousers?
No, the CORDURA® knee pads are sold separately. They are required to meet the EN ISO 13688:2013 & EN 14404:2004 +A1:2010 specifications for knee protection.
What material are the trousers made of?
The trousers are made from a 275gm² fabric consisting of 98% cotton and 2% Lycra.
How should I care for these work trousers?
Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron at a medium temperature. Avoid dry cleaning.
Are these trousers suitable for all types of weather?
The cotton blend offers breathability but may retain moisture. They are suitable for general work conditions. For very wet environments, consider waterproof alternatives.
What does CORDURA® reinforcement mean?
CORDURA® is a highly durable and abrasion-resistant fabric used to reinforce key areas like hems and pockets, increasing the lifespan of the trousers.
Do these trousers come in different colors and sizes?
Yes, while this guide focuses on the Black - 46 variant, this model (WD4901) is available in various sizes and potentially other colors like Green and Beige, as well as unisex options.
What is the purpose of the gusset at the crotch?
The gusset provides extra fabric in the crotch area, allowing for a greater range of movement and reducing stress on the seams, which enhances comfort and durability during bending and stretching.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct waist and length size. Check the size guide. The 2% Lycra content provides some stretch, but proper sizing is key for comfort and mobility.
Kneepad pockets seem ill-fitting.
Ensure you are using compatible CORDURA® knee pads designed for these trousers. Try adjusting the position of the kneepad within the pocket for optimal comfort and coverage.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Follow the care instructions carefully. Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Ironing at a medium temperature can also help soften the fabric. Avoid harsh detergents.
Reflective chevron is peeling.
Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying. Do not iron directly on the reflective chevron. If peeling occurs, it may be a sign of wear and tear or improper care.
