Product Information

Full details

The Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers are designed for adult males seeking durable and comfortable workwear with ample storage. Their key benefit is the combination of robust construction, including triple-stitched seams and poly-cotton canvas, with innovative stretch panelling for flexibility. A potential caveat for some users might be the specific fit or the included kneepads' positioning options. These trousers feature 12 pockets, including swing-away tool pockets and two-tier knee pad pockets, a high-rise back waistband, and an adjustable leg hem.

FAQs

What material are the Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers made from?

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

Are kneepads included with these trousers?

Yes, a free pair of kneepads is included with the trousers.

How many pockets do these trousers have?

These trousers feature a total of 12 pockets for ample storage.

What does 'two-tier knee pad pockets' mean?

It means the pockets are designed to hold kneepads at two different height positions, allowing you to adjust for optimal protection and comfort.

Can I adjust the length of the trousers?

Yes, the trousers have an adjustable leg hem to accommodate different leg lengths.

What kind of work are these trousers best suited for?

They are designed for demanding work environments and are suitable for tradespeople such as carpenters, electricians, builders, and general maintenance workers.

What are the washing instructions?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, iron at medium temperature, and do not dry clean.

Do these trousers meet any safety standards for knee protection?

When used in combination with the included kneepads (or other compliant kneepads), they meet EN 14404:2004+A1:2010 Type 2 Level 0 standards.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct waist size. Check if the stretch panelling is properly aligned with your movement. Adjust the leg hem if necessary for a better fit.

Knee pads do not stay in place.

Experiment with the two different height settings in the knee pad pockets to find the most secure and comfortable position. Ensure the kneepads are the correct size for the pockets.

Holster pockets feel bulky or uncomfortable.

Try adjusting the contents of the holster pockets or consider using the other 10 pockets for storage. The swing-away feature allows them to be tucked away when not in use.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Follow the care instructions precisely. Ironing on a medium setting can help soften the fabric. Ensure the trousers are not over-dried in the tumble dryer.
