They should be machine washed at 40°C. Avoid bleaching, ironing, tumble drying, and dry cleaning to maintain the fabric's properties and fit.
Ensure you have selected the correct waist size. The side elastic waist and stretch fabric offer some flexibility, but a proper fit is key. If the issue persists, consider trying a size up or a different fit style if available.
Ensure you are using kneepads designed for bottom-loading pockets. Adjust the position of the kneepad within the pocket for optimal comfort and protection. The stretch panels in the pockets are designed to accommodate standard kneepads.
Follow the care instructions strictly. Avoid using bleach, ironing, or tumble drying, as these can damage the fabric's elasticity and material integrity. Air dry the trousers away from direct heat.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. If it feels stuck, check for any fabric caught in the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper. A small amount of wax or graphite lubricant can sometimes help.
