FAQs
What is Nosi Defence?
Nosi Defence is a technology integrated into the fabric that helps protect your skin from insect bites.
How effective is the UPF 40+ protection?
UPF 40+ means the fabric blocks at least 97.5% of UVA and UVB rays, offering significant sun protection.
Can these trousers be worn in very hot weather?
Yes, the fabric is breathable and quick-drying, making them suitable for warm conditions, though they offer limited insulation for cold weather.
How do I reapply the Ecoshield water repellent?
Ecoshield is a plant-based finish. While it offers initial protection, its effectiveness may decrease over time. Reapplication can be done using compatible eco-friendly fabric sprays, following the specific product's instructions.
Are these trousers suitable for heavy rain?
The Ecoshield finish provides a degree of water resistance, suitable for light showers. For prolonged or heavy rain, additional waterproof outerwear is recommended.
What does 'Wash & Wear' mean?
This indicates that the fabric is easy to care for, resists creasing, and dries quickly, making it convenient for travel and frequent use.
What materials are used in these trousers?
The trousers are primarily made of 96% polyamide and 4% elastane, with some components made from recycled plastic bottles.
Troubleshooting

Reapply a suitable eco-friendly water repellent spray according to product instructions. Ensure the fabric is clean before application.
Stains on fabric
For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth. For stubborn stains, consult the care label and consider spot cleaning with a mild detergent.
