Product Information

Full details

The Craghoppers Kiwi Pro III Casual Shorts are designed for active women who require durable, high-performance gear for travel and outdoor exploration. These shorts excel at providing versatile protection through integrated solar-shielding and water-repellent technologies, making them a reliable choice for long days on the trail. While they offer exceptional functional utility, users should note that the technical nylon material has a distinct synthetic feel that may not suit those preferring traditional cotton fabrics for casual daily wear.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

While the fabric is quick-dry and water-repellent, they are designed primarily as trekking shorts rather than swimwear.

Does the insect-repellent treatment wear off?

The repellent properties are integrated into the fabric, but they may gradually diminish after many washes.

Do these shorts run true to size?

Yes, they follow standard UK sizing conventions, though the fit is designed for active movement rather than a loose, baggy aesthetic.

Can I iron these shorts?

It is generally not recommended to iron technical nylon as the high heat can melt the fibers or damage the protective coatings.

What is the primary material used?

The shorts are made from a high-quality, durable, and sustainable recycled nylon blend.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads off the fabric surface

The water-repellent coating may have worn off; use a specialized DWR re-proofer spray to restore performance.

Stubborn stains on the fabric

Spot clean with a gentle garment soap and warm water; avoid abrasive brushes that could pull the synthetic threads.

Pros and Cons

  • Highly durable and quick-drying fabric
  • Secure storage with multiple zipped pockets
  • Lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear
  • Includes a handy built-in sunglasses wipe

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Craghoppers Kiwi Pro III shorts, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fitting: The shorts feature a mid-rise waist and include belt loops, allowing you to fine-tune the fit with your preferred outdoor belt.
  2. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip away the H2OShield water-repellent coating.
  3. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. The nylon fabric is inherently quick-drying, making it unnecessary to use a high-heat tumble cycle, which could damage the technical fibers.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure pockets are zipped to prevent snagging during storage with other garments.
