This means that during the manufacturing process, no PFAS chemicals were intentionally added to the materials or treatments. PFAS are a group of man-made chemicals that can be persistent in the environment.

The four-layer, 5.6oz performance fabric is designed for durability in typical fishing conditions, offering a good balance between robustness and light weight for mobility.

Clean the trousers to remove dirt and oils. Reapply a DWR treatment designed for technical outerwear.

Review the innovative sizing chart and patterning guide provided by Patagonia. Adjust suspender placement or consider if a different size would be more suitable.
