Product Information

Full details

For adult males working in demanding environments, the Portwest CD883 WX2 Eco Stretch Holster Trousers offer exceptional durability and freedom of movement.

FAQs

What material are these trousers made from?

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

How do I adjust the leg length?

The trousers have an extendable leg length feature, allowing adjustment from 31 inches to 33 inches. This is typically achieved by unfolding an internal hem.

Are kneepads included with the trousers?

No, kneepads are not included. The trousers feature dedicated bottom-loading kneepad pockets, and compatible kneepads must be purchased separately.

What does '40 UPF rated' mean?

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A rating of 40 means the fabric blocks approximately 98% of harmful UV rays, offering significant sun protection.

How many pockets do these trousers have?

These trousers offer ample storage with a total of 10 pockets, including multi-functional holster pockets, back pockets, a spanner pocket, a rule pocket, a thigh pocket with zip, and a cargo pocket.

Can I wash these trousers in a washing machine?

Yes, the trousers are machine washable at 60°C. Please refer to the 'Care Instructions' section for full washing and drying guidelines.

Are these trousers suitable for all types of work?

These trousers are designed for general work environments, offering durability, comfort, and practical features. Their suitability depends on specific job requirements, such as the need for specialized protective clothing.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The slim fit is designed to be modern, but if comfort is compromised, consider trying a size up or a different model with a more relaxed fit. The side elastic waist provides some adjustability.

Knee pad pockets do not fit standard pads.

These pockets are designed for bottom-loading pads. Ensure the kneepads are inserted correctly from the bottom opening. If issues persist, check the dimensions of your kneepads against the pocket size.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, which could cause damage.

Fabric is not breathable enough in hot conditions.

While designed for performance, the polycotton blend might feel warm in extreme heat. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers and consider taking breaks in shaded areas. Hydration is also key.

Pros and Cons

  • Ample and practical storage with multiple specialized pockets.

Cons

  • Slim fit may not be suitable for all body types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trousers require no specific setup beyond selecting the correct size. Ensure the leg length is adjusted to your preference by unfolding the internal hem if needed (extending from 31" to 33"). If using kneepads, insert them from the bottom opening of the designated pockets.

  • Knee Pads: Compatible with standard bottom-loading kneepads. Please check dimensions if using non-Portwest branded pads.
