FAQs

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

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

How many pockets do these trousers have?

The Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers feature a total of 12 pockets, including two-tier knee pad pockets and innovative swing-away holster tool pockets.

Are kneepads included with the trousers?

Yes, a free pair of kneepads is included with these trousers.

What is the benefit of the stretch panelling?

The innovative stretch panelling is located in key movement areas, providing excellent comfort and flexibility, especially when bending, squatting, or reaching.

How do I ensure the trousers fit correctly?

The trousers feature an ergonomic cut, a high-rise back waistband for coverage, and an adjustable leg hem to accommodate different leg lengths and ensure a secure fit.

What are the washing instructions for these trousers?

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

Are these trousers suitable for all types of work?

These trousers are designed for general work environments and trades requiring durability and ample storage. For specific safety requirements, like impact protection, ensure appropriate compliant accessories (like kneepads) are used.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel restrictive during movement.

Ensure the stretch panelling is correctly positioned across your body. Check that the size is appropriate; a size too small can restrict movement despite the stretch fabric.

Knee pads do not stay in place.

Adjust the positioning within the two-tier pockets. Ensure the kneepads are the correct size for the pockets and that the trouser fabric is not excessively stretched or bunched around the knee area.

Seams appear to be fraying after washing.

Review the care instructions. Ensure washing is done at the recommended temperature and avoid harsh detergents or excessive agitation. Triple-stitched seams are durable, but improper care can still lead to wear.

Pockets feel too bulky or awkward.

Experiment with the swing-away function of the holster pockets to find a comfortable and functional position. Distribute weight evenly across pockets to avoid imbalance.
