Full details

FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for cold weather?

The trousers are made from 105gsm polyester, which is lightweight. While they offer UV protection and are quick-drying, they may not provide sufficient insulation for very cold conditions. Layering with thermal base layers is recommended for colder weather.

How do I clean the trousers?

You can machine wash them at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Iron on a low setting if necessary.

What does 'Durable Water-Repellent' mean?

DWR is a finish applied to the fabric that makes water bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep you dry in light rain. This finish may wear off over time and can be reapplied.

Can the zip-off legs be reattached easily?

Yes, the zip-off legs are designed for easy conversion. Simply align the zipper and zip them back onto the main trouser section.

What kind of activities are these trousers best for?

They are ideal for hiking, walking, travel, camping, and general outdoor activities where comfort, versatility, and protection from light weather are beneficial.

How many pockets do the trousers have?

The trousers feature 2 side pockets and 1 zipped thigh pocket for secure storage.

What is the main benefit of the recycled polyester material?

Using recycled polyester reduces waste and the environmental impact associated with producing new materials, while still providing durability and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel damp after light rain.

Ensure the Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish is intact. If it has diminished, consider reapplying a DWR treatment following product instructions.

Zipper on the thigh pocket is stiff.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth and try again.

Drawcord at the hem is difficult to adjust.

Check that the cord is not tangled or frayed. Ensure the cord lock is functioning correctly. If frayed, consider replacing the cord.

Trousers are not drying as quickly as expected.

Ensure the garment is not overloaded in the washing machine. Proper spin cycle in washing machine can help remove excess water. Hang to dry in a well-ventilated area, avoiding direct, intense heat which can damage fabric.
