Portwest Sealtex Classic Trouser - Green - 2XL

These trousers are designed for waterproof protection and are lightweight. For extreme cold, layering with thermal base layers and insulated trousers underneath is recommended.

EN 343 is a European standard for protective clothing against rain. Class 4:1 indicates high resistance to water penetration (4 out of 4) and moderate resistance to water vapor (1 out of 3), meaning they offer excellent rain protection but may not be the most breathable.

Refer to the Portwest sizing chart. The elasticated waist provides some flexibility, and the ankle press studs allow for adjustment over boots. Ensure they are long enough to cover your boots adequately.

Yes, you can machine wash them at 40°C (104°F) with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or line dry.

The WP rating stands for Water Penetration. A rating of 5,000mm means the fabric can withstand a column of water 5,000mm high before it starts to leak, indicating good waterproofing.

For general dirt, a damp cloth is usually sufficient. For tougher grime, follow the machine washing instructions with a mild detergent.

These trousers are made from a durable, stretchy fabric with a wipe-clean finish, specifically designed for waterproof outer protection. The material is polyester-based, treated for water resistance.

Ensure the trousers are fully sealed at the ankles and waist. Check if the garment has been exposed to heavy condensation or if the waterproof coating needs refreshing. Follow care instructions carefully.

This may indicate wear and tear or damage to the waterproof coating. Check for holes or seam damage. If the fabric is intact, consider using a waterproofing spray suitable for technical outdoor wear after cleaning.

The elastic waistband is designed for comfort and may naturally loosen over time with extensive use. Ensure it is still providing a snug fit; if significantly stretched, consider replacing the garment.
