FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for winter hiking?
These are primarily lightweight, breathable trousers. While suitable for active use, you may need a base layer underneath for warmth in cold conditions.
How should I clean the trousers?
Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid fabric conditioners and heavy spin cycles.
Does the UPF 40+ protection wear off?
The rating is effective under normal conditions, but effectiveness decreases if the fabric is stretched excessively or becomes saturated with water.
Can I use the D-ring for heavy equipment?
The D-ring is designed for lightweight hiking accessories and small gear; it is not intended for heavy climbing equipment.
Are the trousers true to size?
The Stretch Bags feature side expansion panels to aid fit, but it is recommended to consult the size guide based on your specific UK dress size.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels less protective against the sun after washing
Ensure you are not using bleach or strong detergents that could degrade the protective treatment.
Zip appears to stick or feels difficult to operate
Check the pocket for trapped debris or grit and gently clean the zip track with a soft brush.
Visible signs of piling on reinforced areas
Piling is often caused by friction; try to avoid abrasive surfaces and wash inside out to reduce further wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the longevity of your trousers, always follow the care label instructions provided on the garment. Generally, the Stretch Bags should be machine washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners as these can impact the performance of the technical fabric. Ensure all zipped pockets are closed before washing to prevent damage. For best results, air dry the trousers to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibers and the protective coating.
