FAQs

What is the primary material of these trousers?

The trousers are made from Kingsmill fabric, a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, weighing 245g. This blend is chosen for its durability and comfort.

How many pockets do the Portwest Combat Trousers have?

These trousers feature a total of 8 pockets, providing ample storage for tools and personal items.

Are these trousers suitable for outdoor work in sunny conditions?

Yes, the fabric is 40+ UPF rated, which means it blocks 98% of harmful UV rays, offering good protection during outdoor work.

Can I wear knee pads with these trousers?

Yes, the trousers include knee pad pockets designed to accommodate knee pads for added protection during tasks requiring kneeling.

How should I wash and care for these trousers to ensure longevity?

Machine wash at a maximum of 60°C on a normal process. Do not bleach. Tumble dry normal or drip line dry. Iron at a maximum of 150°C. Professional dry cleaning is also an option.

What does 'pre-shrunk' mean for the fabric?

'Pre-shrunk' means the fabric has undergone a process to reduce shrinkage after subsequent washes, helping the trousers maintain their size and fit over time.

Is the waist adjustable?

Yes, the trousers feature a half-elasticated back waist, which provides a more secure and comfortable fit that can adapt to movement.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct waist size. The half-elasticated waist offers some flexibility, but proper sizing is key for comfort. Refer to the size chart if unsure.

Fabric shows signs of premature wear.

Review washing and drying instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessively high heat during washing and drying, which can degrade fabric fibers. Ensure stress points are not subjected to undue force.

Pockets do not close securely.

Check the hook and loop fasteners for debris. Clean them gently with a brush. If the hook and loop material is worn out, consider repair or replacement of the fasteners.

UV protection seems reduced after washing.

Follow the recommended washing temperature (max 60°C) and avoid bleaching agents. These can impact the fabric's UPF rating over time. Always drip line dry or use low heat tumble dry.
