Full details
These Craghoppers NosiLife Golf Santos II Trousers are designed for adult males seeking comfortable, protective golf wear suitable for all seasons. Their key benefit is the integrated NosiLife technology, which repels insects and controls odour, while also offering UV protection. A potential caveat is that the specific fit and features may appeal more to golfers than those seeking general outdoor trousers. Key features include stretch fabric, moisture control, easy-care properties, and multiple pockets for practicality.

FAQs
What is NosiLife technology?
NosiLife is a permanent insect repellent and odour control technology incorporated into the fabric. It works by emitting a low-level repellent that is invisible and odourless to humans but deters biting insects.
How long does the NosiLife protection last?
The NosiLife treatment is designed to be permanent and last for the lifetime of the garment, provided care instructions are followed. It is woven into the fabric itself.
Are these trousers waterproof?
No, these trousers are not designed to be waterproof. They are water-repellent to a degree, suitable for light showers, but not for heavy rain.
Can I wear these trousers in cold weather?
While designed for all-season wear, they are lightweight and breathable. For very cold weather, layering with thermal base layers would be advisable.
How do I clean the integrated sunglasses wipe?
The integrated wipe can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For best results, ensure it is clean before each use.
What materials are the trousers made from?
The main fabric is a blend of 55% Recycled Nylon Polyamide, 39% Nylon Polyamide, and 6% Elastane. The pocket bags are made from 100% Recycled Polyester.
Do these trousers come in different colours?
Yes, this model is available in different colour families, including Grey (Pebble) and Beige. Please check specific product listings for all available colour options.
Troubleshooting
NosiLife repellent effectiveness seems reduced after several washes.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, as these can impact the repellent treatment. Wash only when necessary and air dry whenever possible. Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying.
Trousers feel restrictive.
Verify you have selected the correct size. The trousers are designed for a stretch fit, but if a size is too small, it may feel restrictive. Ensure the adjustable waist is set appropriately.
Fabric snagged or torn.
Inspect the area for damage. Minor snags may not affect performance, but significant tears can compromise the protective qualities. Avoid contact with sharp objects or rough surfaces.
