Product Information

Full details

The Portwest CD883 WX2 Eco Stretch Holster Trousers are designed for adult males seeking durable, high-performance workwear that doesn't compromise on comfort or flexibility. The key benefit is the combination of a robust cotton-polyester blend with strategic stretch panels and ample, well-designed pockets for tools and essentials. A potential caveat for some users might be the slim fit design, which may not suit all body types.

FAQs

What material are the Portwest CD883 trousers made from?

The main shell fabric is a Kingsmill Polycotton blend, consisting of 65% Recycled Polyester and 35% Cotton (245g). The contrast fabric is Kingsmill Polyester Stretch Eco: 93% Recycled Polyester, 7% Elastane.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Portwest, paying close attention to the 'size_mens_waist_uk' measurements. The trousers feature side elastication for a more forgiving fit.

Are knee pads included with the trousers?

No, knee pads are not included. They need to be purchased separately and are inserted into the dedicated bottom-loading knee pad pockets.

Can the leg length be adjusted?

Yes, the trousers have an extendable leg length feature, allowing for adjustment from 31" to 33" inseam.

How many pockets do these trousers have in total?

These trousers feature a total of 10 pockets, including side pockets, back pockets, a spanner pocket, a rule pocket, a zipped thigh pocket, and multi-functional holster pockets.

Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?

The cotton-polyester blend offers durability and comfort. While the stretch panels add flexibility, for extremely hot conditions, the breathability might be less than 100% natural fibers. However, the UV protection is beneficial for outdoor work.

What does 'Eco Stretch' refer to in the fabric description?

'Eco Stretch' indicates that the fabric contains recycled polyester and elastane, offering stretch properties while utilizing more sustainable materials.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Utilize the side elastic waist for a more comfortable fit. If issues persist, consider if the slim fit is suitable for your needs or explore alternative models.

Pockets feel bulky or inconvenient

The holster and thigh pockets are designed for secure storage. Ensure items are placed efficiently. For less frequently used tools, consider using the back pockets. The swing-away holster pockets can be tucked away when not in use.

Knee pads slip out

Ensure knee pads are fully inserted from the bottom opening and are the correct size for the pockets. The stretch panels are designed to hold them in place during movement.

Fabric shows signs of wear prematurely

Ensure washing instructions are followed precisely. Avoid harsh detergents and high heat during washing and drying, as this can degrade fabric integrity over time.
