FAQs
What is the primary material of these trousers?
The main fabric is a blend of cotton and polyester (approximately 47% cotton, 53% polyester, 237 g/m²). Some colorways use different blends, including Sorona polyester for enhanced sustainability.
Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?
The cotton-polyester blend offers breathability, but the inclusion of stretch panels and durable reinforcements might make them warmer than lighter-weight materials. They are designed for all-day working comfort across various conditions.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the Snickers Workwear size chart, paying close attention to the waist measurement (UK size) and checking for any specific inseam or fit recommendations for bib and brace styles.
Can I fit standard knee pads into the KneeGuard™ system?
Yes, the KneeGuard™ system is designed to accommodate standard knee pads, with CORDURA® stretch reinforcements providing a secure fit and added durability.
What are the advantages of the 4-way stretch panels?
The 4-way stretch panels, located at the back, allow the fabric to stretch in all directions, providing superior flexibility and comfort, especially when bending, squatting, or reaching.
How many pockets are included?
The trousers feature a chest pocket with a zipper and compartments, a leg pocket with an ID badge attachment, and a CORDURA® ruler pocket, plus lower leg pockets.
What is CORDURA® fabric?
CORDURA® is a highly durable and abrasion-resistant fabric, often made from nylon or polyester. Its use in reinforcements on these trousers enhances longevity in high-wear areas like the knees and ruler pocket.
Troubleshooting
Braces slipping during wear
Ensure braces are adjusted evenly and securely fastened. Check if the fabric is excessively smooth or if the garment is over-weighted, which might affect grip.
Knee pads not fitting correctly in KneeGuard™ system
Verify that the knee pads are of a compatible size and design for the KneeGuard™ system. Ensure they are inserted fully into the designated pockets.
Zipper on chest pocket is stiff
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are following the recommended washing temperature and avoiding harsh detergents. A low-heat tumble dry with a dryer sheet can sometimes help soften fabrics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These trousers require no specific setup beyond adjusting the shoulder braces to your preferred length for a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the main zipper on the chest pocket is fully closed when in use.
Compatibility: Compatible with standard knee pads that fit within the KneeGuard™ system. The ID badge attachment point is designed for most standard work-issued badges.
Care: Follow the washing instructions on the garment's care label carefully. Generally, wash at a moderate temperature (e.g., 60°C or 140°F) with similar colors. Avoid using bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or line dry for best results. Iron on a medium setting if needed. Specific fabric compositions (like those with Sorona polyester or CORDURA®) may benefit from cooler wash cycles to preserve material integrity and stretch properties.
