FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for cold weather?
These trousers are made from lightweight polyester and are designed for moderate to warm conditions. They offer UV protection and water repellency but may not provide enough insulation for very cold weather. Layering with thermal base layers is recommended for colder temperatures.
How do I convert them from trousers to shorts?
Locate the zippers positioned around the knee area. Unzip both legs to detach the lower sections, transforming the trousers into shorts. Ensure the zips are fully functional before use.
What is the GSM of the fabric?
The fabric weight is 105gsm, which indicates a lightweight material suitable for active wear and warm weather.
How should I wash these trousers?
You can machine wash them at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach, and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Do not dry clean.
Do the pockets have zippers?
Yes, there are two side pockets and one thigh pocket which features a zip for secure storage.
What does 'Durable Water Repellent' mean?
Durable Water Repellent (DWR) is a finish applied to the fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface. It provides protection against light rain and moisture but is not a substitute for waterproof material.
Can I wear these for activities other than hiking?
Yes, the versatility and comfort make them suitable for a range of outdoor activities such as walking, travelling, camping, and general casual wear.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel damp after light rain
Ensure the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish is intact. Reapply DWR treatment if necessary following product instructions. Allow trousers to air dry completely.
Zip-off mechanism is stiff
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently clean the zipper track with a soft brush and a small amount of mild soap or wax if needed. Ensure zippers are fully closed before attempting to zip off legs.
Waistband adjustment is not secure
Ensure the drawcord is properly threaded and tied. Check for wear and tear on the drawcord or elastic. If the elastic has lost its elasticity, it may need professional repair.
