Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these pants waterproof?

They are water-repellent due to the DWR coating, which protects against light showers, but they are not fully waterproof in heavy rain.

Can I use fabric softener?

No, fabric softeners can damage the performance properties of the DWR coating and should be avoided.

What does PFC-free mean?

It means the water-repellent coating is manufactured without using harmful perfluorinated chemicals, making it more environmentally friendly.

Are these suitable for winter hiking?

They are best suited for mild to moderate conditions. For extreme winter conditions, you may need a thermal base layer underneath.

How should I choose the right size?

These pants are sized by UK dress sizes. Refer to your standard dress size, keeping in mind the elasticated waist offers some flexibility.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the pants and apply a re-proofer to restore water resistance.

Pants feel stiff after washing

Residual detergent may be trapped in the fabric. Run an extra rinse cycle and ensure you use a technical detergent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Berghaus Burwell Pants, follow these guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild technical cleaner. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or line dry. Brief low-heat drying can sometimes help 'reactivate' the DWR finish.
  3. Re-proofing: Over time, the DWR finish will wear off. If you notice water no longer beads on the surface, use a specialized spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment to restore the water-repellent properties.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric degradation.
