Product Information

Full details

Designed for adult males in demanding work environments, the Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers offer exceptional storage and durability. Their key benefit is the combination of robust poly-cotton canvas with strategic stretch panels for enhanced comfort and flexibility. A potential caveat to consider is the need for specific knee pads to meet EN 14404 certification. These trousers feature a contemporary ergonomic cut, triple-stitched seams, and 12 pockets for extensive tool and item organization.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are the kneepads included permanent?

No, a free pair of kneepads is included with the trousers, but they are designed to be inserted into the two-tier knee pad pockets. This allows for their removal or replacement as needed.

What material are the trousers made from?

The shell fabric is Kingsmill Canvas, a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton Canvas with a peach finish, weighing 280g.

How many pockets do these trousers have?

The Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers feature a total of 12 pockets for ample storage.

Do these trousers offer any water resistance?

The product description does not specify water resistance. The poly-cotton canvas offers some protection but is not a waterproof material.

What is the benefit of the high rise back waistband?

The high rise back waistband is designed to provide increased coverage and protection, especially when bending or kneeling, ensuring comfort and preventing exposure.

Can I wear any type of kneepads?

While the trousers have dedicated pockets, to meet EN 14404:2004+A1:2010 Type 2 Level 0 certification, you must use them in combination with the specified S156 kneepads.

How do I adjust the leg hem?

The leg hem typically has an internal adjustment, often a drawstring or velcro system, allowing you to shorten or lengthen the trouser leg for a customized fit.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the size guide carefully. The stretch panels offer some flexibility, but proper sizing is key. The adjustable leg hem can also slightly alter the fit.

Kneepads do not stay in place.

Ensure you are using the correct Portwest kneepads or compatible ones. Insert them into the two-tier pockets, utilizing the upper or lower slot as preferred for fit and support. Ensure the pockets are not overstuffed, which can dislodge pads.

Pockets seem too bulky.

This is a design feature for storage. When not in use, try to distribute items evenly or utilize the standard pockets to reduce bulk. The holster pockets are intended for tools that are frequently accessed.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Follow the care instructions carefully, particularly regarding washing temperature and drying. Ironing on a medium heat can help soften the fabric. Avoid harsh detergents.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: The trousers are designed to be compatible with Portwest kneepads, specifically the S156 for EN 14404 certification. The adjustable leg hem allows compatibility with various footwear.

Care: To maintain the fabric's durability and color, machine wash at 40°C (104°F). Tumble dry on a low setting and iron at a medium temperature. Avoid bleaching or dry cleaning. Wash with similar colors.
