FAQs

What material are the Portwest C701 Combat Trousers made from?

They are constructed from Kingsmill Polycotton, which is 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, weighing 245g.

How many pockets do these trousers have?

The trousers feature a total of six pockets, including easy-access cargo pockets.

Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?

The polycotton blend offers durability and some breathability. The fabric also provides UPF 40+ protection, which is beneficial for outdoor work in the sun.

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

Pre-shrunk fabric has undergone a treatment process to reduce shrinkage after washing, ensuring the trousers maintain their size and fit more consistently.

Can I machine wash these trousers?

Yes, they can be machine washed at a moderate temperature (e.g., 40°C) with similar colors.

What is the UPF rating of the fabric?

The fabric has a UPF 40+ rating, meaning it blocks over 98% of harmful UV rays.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too tight or too loose.

Refer to the sizing guide provided by Portwest and compare your measurements. If the fit is still not right, consider trying a different size or style.

Seams appear to be fraying after a short period.

Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. Excessive heat or harsh detergents can degrade fabric over time. Check if the garment is subjected to extreme abrasion beyond its intended use.

Hook and Loop closures are losing their grip.

Clean the Hook and Loop surfaces gently with a brush to remove any lint or debris that might be preventing a secure closure. Avoid excessive washing cycles that could wear down the fasteners.
