Product Information
Full details
The Rohan Stretch Bags Walking Trousers are designed for adult women who prioritize mobility and versatility during hiking and outdoor exploration. By integrating MultiFlex fabric into the classic 'Bags' design, these trousers provide exceptional freedom of movement and quick-drying performance, making them ideal for changing weather conditions. A primary caveat to keep in mind is that the built-in UPF 40+ sun protection can be reduced if the fabric becomes stretched or wet, requiring additional sun safety precautions in those scenarios.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
The trousers are quick-drying and designed for outdoor use, but they are not fully waterproof. They will perform well in light moisture but are not a substitute for dedicated waterproof overtrousers.
How do I choose the right size?
These trousers are sized by UK dress size. Refer to the standard Rohan size guide to ensure a correct fit for your measurements.
Does the sun protection work when wet?
The UPF 40+ rating is reduced if the fabric is wet or stretched. We recommend applying sunscreen to the skin underneath if you are in high-UV conditions while wet.
Can I use the D-ring for heavy items?
The D-ring is intended for lightweight accessories such as keys or small tools. Avoid attaching heavy items that could pull or distort the fabric.
How should I clean the reinforced panels?
The reinforced panels are made of the same durable material as the rest of the trousers and can be cleaned using the standard washing instructions provided.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels restrictive after extended wear
Ensure you are not over-stretching the garment; the side expansion panels are designed to assist with fit, so ensure they are not being forced beyond their capacity.
Zippers feel stuck or difficult to open
Clear any debris or trail dirt from the teeth of the zipper and use a zipper lubricant or a lead pencil rub to help the slider move more smoothly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Rohan Stretch Bags retain their technical properties, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild, technical-fabric friendly detergent.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct high heat, which can damage the synthetic fibers and elastic components.
- Storage: Hang the trousers or fold them cleanly to prevent unnecessary stretching of the fabric panels.
- Maintenance: Regularly check the zip closures to ensure they remain clear of grit and dirt, which can prevent them from seizing over time.
