FAQs

What material are the Portwest Combat Trousers made from?

They are constructed from a durable Kingsmill fabric, which is a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, weighing 245g.

How many pockets do these trousers have?

The trousers feature a total of 8 pockets for ample storage.

Can I use knee pads with these trousers?

Yes, the trousers have dedicated knee pad pockets to accommodate standard work knee pads for added protection.

Are these trousers suitable for sun protection?

Yes, the fabric has a 50+ UPF rating, which blocks 98% of UV rays, offering good protection from the sun.

How should I care for my combat trousers?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colors, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on medium heat. Do not dry clean.

What does 'pre-shrunk fabric' mean?

Pre-shrunk fabric has been treated to reduce shrinkage after washing. While they are designed to minimize shrinkage, slight changes in fit can still occur depending on washing and drying methods.

Is the waist adjustable?

Yes, the trousers feature a half-elasticated back waist for a secure and comfortable fit that allows for some flexibility.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel tight after washing

The fabric is pre-shrunk, but slight variations can occur. Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying temperatures. If consistently tight, consider trying a size up.

Hook and Loop flaps snagging

Ensure the flaps are properly secured when not in use. For sensitive materials or delicate environments, consider alternative trousers without flap closures or carefully manage the flaps.

Reduced comfort during hot weather

While breathable, the poly-cotton blend may feel warmer than lighter fabrics in extreme heat. Ensure proper hydration and consider garments with more ventilation if working in very high temperatures.

Pocket contents falling out

Ensure the Hook and Loop flaps are securely fastened for all pockets containing items. For very small items, consider using internal smaller pockets or a separate pouch.
