FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Cordura reinforcement?

Cordura fabric is highly durable and abrasion-resistant, significantly extending the lifespan of the pants in high-wear areas like the knees and pocket bottoms.

Are these pants suitable for very hot weather?

The pants are designed for warmer months with breathable materials, but their durability and reinforcements might make them feel warmer than ultra-lightweight options. They offer a good balance for active work in moderate to warm conditions.

How do I insert knee pads?

Knee pads are inserted from the inside of the pant leg into the specially designed knee pad pockets.

What is the main fabric composition?

The main fabric is composed of 93% Polyamide and 7% Elastane, providing 4-way stretch for mobility.

Can I wear these casually?

While designed for workwear, the modern fit and stretch fabric make them comfortable for general use. However, their primary design intent is for demanding work environments.

How should I wash these pants?

Machine wash at 40°C. Avoid bleach, tumble drying, ironing, and dry cleaning to preserve the fabric's properties.

What does 'articulated knees' mean?

Articulated knees are designed with pre-shaped panels and seams that mimic the natural bend of the knee, allowing for greater freedom of movement when bending, kneeling, or squatting.

Troubleshooting

Pants feel too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the measurement guide. Check if the waist can be adjusted via any internal drawcords if applicable. The fabric has some stretch, but proper sizing is crucial for mobility.

Knee pads do not stay in place

Ensure the knee pad pockets are the correct size for your inserts. Some knee pads have specific attachment points or shapes that might fit better. Ensure the pants are worn at the correct height for optimal pad positioning.

Fabric seems to be snagging easily

While reinforced, the main fabric can still be susceptible to sharp objects. Always be mindful of your surroundings. Ensure the pants are washed according to the care instructions to maintain fabric strength.

Stitching appears to be coming loose

Inspect the seams for any signs of wear. If minor, a simple stitch repair may suffice. For significant damage, contact customer support or refer to warranty information.
