Product Information

Full details

These Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers are designed for adult men who need durable, comfortable, and highly functional workwear. The key benefit is the exceptional storage capacity and ease of movement provided by the holster pockets and stretch panelling. A potential caveat is that the included kneepads offer basic protection and may need upgrading for more demanding tasks. The trousers feature a contemporary ergonomic cut, made from robust poly-cotton canvas with innovative stretch panels for flexibility, triple-stitched seams for durability, and a total of 12 pockets for ample storage.

FAQs

What material are the Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers made from?

The trousers are made from Kingsmill Canvas, which is a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton Canvas with a peach finish, weighing 280g.

How many pockets do these trousers have?

These trousers feature a total of 12 pockets, providing ample storage for tools and personal items.

Are kneepads included with the trousers?

Yes, a free pair of kneepads is included with the trousers. They are designed to fit into the two-tier knee pad pockets.

Can I wear these trousers for heavy-duty work?

The trousers are constructed for durability with triple-stitched seams and robust fabric, suitable for many trades. For extreme conditions or prolonged kneeling, consider upgrading the included kneepads and assessing the fabric's suitability for your specific environment.

How do I care for these work trousers?

Machine wash at 40°C with dark colours separately. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on a medium setting. Do not dry clean.

What is the benefit of the stretch panelling?

The innovative stretch panelling in key movement areas provides excellent comfort and flexibility, allowing for a greater range of motion during work activities.

Can the leg length be adjusted?

Yes, the trousers feature an adjustable leg hem which allows you to customize the length for a better fit with your footwear.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The stretch panelling should provide flexibility, but a size too small will limit movement. Consider trying a size up or checking the size chart.

Kneepads do not stay in place.

Ensure the knee pads are correctly inserted into the two-tier pockets and adjusted to the appropriate height. For some tasks, using the higher position may offer better stability.

Fabric shows signs of wear quickly.

Review the care instructions for washing and drying. Avoid harsh detergents, high heat, and excessive bleaching. For heavy-duty work, ensure you are not exceeding the intended durability of the poly-cotton canvas fabric.

Holster pockets feel bulky.

The holster pockets are designed for storage; they may appear bulky when empty. If they interfere with movement, consider tucking them into the main pockets or removing them if they are detachable (check product design).
