FAQs

Are these trousers insulated for cold weather?

The Highlander Stow & Go Trousers are designed primarily for waterproofing and breathability, not for insulation. They are intended to be worn over base layers or light clothing and may not provide sufficient warmth in very cold conditions without additional layers.

How do I know what size to order?

Refer to the sizing guide provided by the retailer or manufacturer. It is recommended to measure your waist and inseam and compare them to the provided measurements. Consider if you will wear them over other trousers.

What is the hydrostatic head rating?

The trousers have a hydrostatic head rating of 6000mm, which indicates a good level of waterproofness suitable for moderate to heavy rain.

Can I wear these over other trousers?

Yes, they are designed to be worn as an outer layer, so they can be comfortably worn over base layers or other lightweight trousers for added protection.

How small do they pack down?

They compress into an included stuff sack measuring approximately 22cm x 10cm x 10cm, making them very compact and easy to carry.

What material are they made from?

They are made from a durable nylon shell with a breathable membrane and taped seams.

Do they come with a stuff sack?

Yes, the trousers come with a dedicated stuff sack for easy storage and transport.

Troubleshooting

Water seeping through seams

Ensure all seams are properly sealed. If leakage persists after multiple washes, the seam tape may need reapplication or professional repair. Check if a DWR treatment is needed.

Reduced waterproofing effectiveness

The DWR coating may have worn off. Clean the trousers and re-apply a suitable DWR treatment following the product instructions.

Trousers feel clammy or wet inside

This can be due to internal condensation, especially during high-exertion activities. Ensure the trousers are not too tight, allowing for airflow. Clean the garment to ensure the breathable membrane is not blocked by dirt or residue.
