FAQs

What material are the Portwest WX2 Eco Stretch Holster Trousers made from?

The main shell fabric is a durable polycotton blend (65% Recycled Polyester, 35% Cotton, 245g). The contrast stretch fabric is made from 93% Recycled Polyester and 7% Elastane.

Are kneepads included with the trousers?

No, kneepads are not included. They are designed to accommodate separate purchase kneepads inserted into the bottom-loading pockets.

How do I adjust the leg length?

The trousers feature an extendable leg length mechanism, typically allowing adjustment from 31" to 33" by unpicking a seam or adjusting an internal hem.

How many pockets do these trousers have?

These trousers feature a total of 10 pockets, including side pockets, back pockets, a spanner pocket, a rule pocket, a zipped thigh pocket, and holster pockets.

Can I wear these trousers for outdoor work in the sun?

Yes, the fabric is 40 UPF rated, which blocks 98% of UV rays, making them suitable for outdoor work.

What is the washing temperature recommended?

The trousers are machine washable at 60°C.

What does 'Eco Stretch' refer to?

'Eco Stretch' refers to the use of recycled polyester and elastane in the fabric, providing flexibility and a more sustainable material choice.

Troubleshooting

Kneepads slipping down

Ensure you are using kneepads designed for bottom-loading pockets and that they are fully inserted. Try a different brand or size of kneepad for a snugger fit.

Trousers feel too tight in the waist

Utilize the side elastic waist for a more comfortable fit. If still uncomfortable, consider if a larger size is needed, noting the slim fit design.

Reduced flexibility despite stretch fabric

Ensure the stretch panelling is not obstructed by anything in the pockets. Verify that the correct size has been purchased, as an incorrect size can restrict movement.

Fabric showing wear after initial use

Check for sharp objects or rough surfaces being constantly rubbed against the fabric. Ensure washing instructions are followed to maintain fabric integrity.
