FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for everyday wear?

While they are very comfortable, they are specifically engineered for hiking and outdoor performance, so they may be warmer and have a more utilitarian aesthetic than everyday trousers.

How does the sizing run?

The trousers feature a part-elasticated waist to help with fit, but it is recommended to check the specific size guide for your waist measurement in inches.

Can I put these in the dryer?

It is generally recommended to air dry these trousers to preserve the technical fabric properties, unless the product care label explicitly states a low-heat tumble dry is safe.

Are they windproof?

Yes, the Isotex 10000 fabric provides excellent wind resistance, making them suitable for exposed, windy peaks.

What is the material composition?

These trousers are constructed from high-quality, durable polyester, chosen for its strength and performance characteristics in outdoor apparel.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the outer fabric

The DWR coating may have worn off; wash with a technical cleaner and re-apply a waterproof reproofing treatment.

Feeling damp inside despite the waterproof rating

Ensure you are layering appropriately with moisture-wicking base layers to prevent sweat buildup, as breathability relies on proper airflow.

Zipper sticking or becoming difficult to pull

Check for debris or dirt in the teeth of the zipper and clean with a soft brush; occasionally use a zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the waterproof integrity of the trousers, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
  2. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the technical membranes.
  3. Re-proofing: Periodically apply a re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment to restore the exterior water-beading capability.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and ensure they are completely clean before putting them away for the season.
