FAQs
What is the main purpose of these rain trousers?
The Herock Pontus trousers are designed to provide waterproof and windproof protection, making them ideal for outdoor work or activities in wet and windy conditions.
Are these trousers suitable for extreme cold weather?
While they offer wind protection, they are primarily designed for rain. For extreme cold, layering additional thermal clothing underneath is recommended.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The trousers feature an elastic waistband for comfort and adjustable zippers at the bottom. Refer to the sizing guide for your specific waist and inseam measurements.
What are the fabric specifications?
The trousers are made of bonded fabric (345g/m²) with a PU/PVC coating on the outer surface and a 100% polyester inner lining.
Can I wear these over other trousers?
Yes, they are designed to be worn as an outer layer over regular work or outdoor clothing.
What do the EN certifications mean?
EN ISO 13688:2013 specifies general requirements for protective clothing. EN 343:2003+A1:2007 relates to protective clothing against adverse weather, with class 3/1 indicating high resistance to water penetration and low resistance to water vapor permeability.
How should I maintain the waterproof coating?
Avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners during washing. Ensure proper drying according to care instructions. Periodic re-waterproofing treatments might be considered for extended use in very demanding conditions.
Troubleshooting
Trousers are not completely waterproof.
Ensure all seams are intact and zippers are fully closed. Check for any damage to the PU/PVC coating. If the issue persists, the garment may need replacement.
Waistband feels too loose or too tight.
The elastic waistband provides a degree of flexibility. For minor adjustments, consider wearing a belt. For significant fit issues, consider alternative sizing.
Zipper at the bottom is difficult to operate.
Ensure the zipper track is clean and free from debris. Lubricate with a silicone-based product if necessary. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Material feels stiff after washing.
Follow the care instructions carefully, especially regarding the maximum washing temperature and avoiding harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Tumble drying on low heat can help restore some flexibility.
