FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
They are designed to be mud and stain resistant, but they are not fully waterproof.
Can I wear these for climbing?
While durable, they do not have the high-stretch capacity of dedicated climbing gear, so they are better suited for hiking and trekking.
How do I maintain the insect-repellent treatment?
The treatment is integrated into the fabric. Avoid high heat and harsh chemicals to maintain its efficacy over time.
Are the pockets deep enough for a large phone?
Yes, the pockets are designed for trail essentials and can fit most modern standard-sized smartphones.
Do these trousers provide enough warmth for winter?
They are a classic weight suitable for three-season use. For extreme winter conditions, you may need a base layer underneath.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stiffer after washing
Avoid using harsh detergents or excess fabric softener; a gentle tumble dry with dryer balls can help soften the fabric fibers.
Mud stains are not coming out during regular wash
Pre-treat stubborn mud spots with a mild stain remover before putting them in the washing machine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Craghoppers Kiwi Trousers, follow these care instructions: machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle using a non-biological detergent to preserve the fabric's protective treatments. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can interfere with the insect-repellent finish. For drying, a low-heat tumble dry is safe, but air drying on a line will keep the fabric in the best condition for longer. When choosing a size, ensure you check the waist measurement carefully, as these are tailored for a classic, comfortable fit rather than a slim-fit technical aesthetic.
