FAQs

Are these trousers fully waterproof or just water-resistant?

These trousers feature taped seams and a waterproof fabric finish, providing full protection against water penetration.

Can I wear these over my work clothes?

Yes, they are designed to be worn as an outer layer over regular work trousers for added weather protection.

How do I clean the trousers to maintain their visibility?

Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid ironing prints or reflective trims. Washing inside out and fastening zips/buttons helps preserve the fabric and reflective elements.

What does UPF rated fabric mean?

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. A 40+ UPF rating means the fabric blocks at least 98% of harmful UV rays, offering significant sun protection.

Are these trousers suitable for all seasons?

They are excellent for rain and wind protection. For very hot weather, the waterproof nature may lead to reduced breathability. They are best suited for mild to cool, wet conditions.

What sizes are available?

These trousers are available in sizes up to 6XL, accommodating a wide range of adult body types.

Do these trousers meet safety standards?

Yes, they are CE certified and UKCA marked, indicating compliance with relevant safety regulations.

Troubleshooting

Water penetrating seams

Ensure all seams are intact. For persistent issues, consider re-taping seams if possible or replacing the garment if wear is evident.

Reduced visibility

Clean the reflective tape and hi-vis fabric with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods that can damage the reflective properties.

Uncomfortable fit

Adjust the stud fasteners on the hems for a secure fit. The elasticated waistband provides some flexibility, but ensure the correct size is selected.

Fabric stiffness after washing

Follow the recommended washing and drying instructions. Use a low heat tumble dry and iron on a low setting. Avoid excessive heat which can stiffen the fabric.
