FAQs

What is Cordura and why is it used in these trousers?

Cordura is a highly durable, abrasion-resistant synthetic fabric. It's used in key areas of the trousers, like the knee pads and holster pockets, to provide extra protection and extend the lifespan of the garment in high-wear zones.

Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?

The trousers are made from a breathable polyester and cotton blend, which helps manage comfort. However, they are constructed for durability and may feel warmer than lighter-weight materials in extremely hot climates.

Can I use these trousers for non-work activities?

While designed for work, their comfortable fit and durable fabric make them suitable for casual wear or outdoor activities where durability and storage are beneficial.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the manufacturer. The trousers feature a buttoned waistband and belt loops, allowing for some adjustability. The listed size (e.g., 36W 30L) corresponds to waist and inseam measurements.

Are the knee pad pockets large enough for standard knee pads?

Yes, the Velcro knee pad pockets are designed to accommodate most standard work knee pads, offering enhanced protection for construction and ground-level tasks.

How resistant are the trousers to fading?

The fabric is described as anti-fading, meaning the color should remain consistent even after multiple washes and exposure to sunlight, helping to maintain their professional appearance.

What kind of tools can I fit in the pockets?

The multi-pocket design includes specific pockets for items like rulers, mobile phones, coins, and screws, as well as larger cargo and holster pockets suitable for bulkier tools. Specific capacities will vary based on tool size.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too tight/loose

Adjust the button closure. If consistently too tight or loose, consider if the size is correct or if a different size is needed. Utilize the belt loops for a more precise fit.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and tumble drying on a low setting. Fabric softener can be used sparingly if preferred, though it may affect the fabric's breathability over time.

Velcro on knee pad pockets is not fastening securely

Clean the Velcro surfaces by brushing away any lint or debris. Ensure the knee pads are properly aligned within the pockets.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax can help lubricate the zipper.
