FAQs

Are these trousers fully waterproof or just water-resistant?

These trousers feature Isotex 10000 fabric with taped seams, offering full waterproof protection.

How do I know which length option to choose?

The trousers are available in short, regular, and long lengths. It is recommended to measure your inside leg or compare with trousers that fit you well to select the most appropriate length.

Can I wear these in very cold weather?

These trousers offer waterproof protection but are not heavily insulated. For cold weather, layering with thermal base layers is recommended.

What does 'recycled content' mean for these trousers?

It means that a portion of the materials used to make the trousers comes from recycled sources, contributing to a more sustainable product.

How often should I re-proof the trousers?

Re-proofing is recommended when you notice water no longer beads on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or extensive use.

Are these trousers suitable for trekking or just light walking?

The combination of waterproof, breathable, and stretch fabric makes them suitable for a range of activities, from light walking to more demanding trekking.

Troubleshooting

Water not beading on the fabric surface

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try tumble drying on a low heat for 20 minutes, or use a specific fabric re-proofer product.

Trousers feel damp inside

Ensure the garment has been washed correctly without fabric softener and that the vents (if any) are not blocked. The issue could also be related to extreme humidity or exertion, exceeding the fabric's breathability limits.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Clean the zipper track with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of wax or a specific zipper lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable protection.
  • Stretch fabric allows for greater comfort and mobility.
  • Durable construction with taped seams for extended wear.
  • Comfortable and adaptable fit due to the elasticated waistband.
  • Environmentally conscious with recycled material content.
  • Available in various lengths for a better fit.

Cons

  • May require careful checking of sizing for optimal fit.
  • Not designed for extreme cold weather insulation.
  • The multicolor pattern might not suit all preferences.
  • Specific care instructions are needed to maintain waterproof properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trousers require no complex setup; they are ready to wear out of the package. They are compatible with most hiking boots and outdoor footwear. To maintain their performance and longevity:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 40°C. Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat sources.
  • Re-proofing: Periodically re-proof the fabric using a suitable spray or wash-in proofer to restore its water-repellent finish, especially if water no longer beads on the surface. Follow the product instructions for re-proofing agents carefully.
