Product Information

Full details

The Craghoppers Kiwi Classic Trousers are designed for adult hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who require a durable, multi-functional garment for all-season use. These trousers provide a key advantage through their integrated Nosi Defence insect protection and Solarshield UPF 40+ sun protection, though users should note that the cotton-polyester blend is tailored for utility and trail performance rather than high-intensity, high-friction technical mountaineering.

FAQs

Are these trousers waterproof?

They feature a water-repellent finish that handles light rain and mud, but they are not fully waterproof, so heavy downpours may soak through eventually.

Can I wear these in the winter?

They are suitable for general outdoor use, but for cold winter conditions, we recommend wearing a thermal base layer underneath for extra warmth.

How do I choose the right size?

The trousers feature a part-elasticated waist. It is recommended to choose your standard waist size, allowing the elastic to provide a comfortable, flexible fit.

Do the pockets have zippers?

Yes, out of the 9 total pockets, 5 are equipped with zippers to ensure your belongings remain secure during active movement.

Is the sun protection permanent?

The Solarshield technology is built into the fabric to provide UPF 40+ protection, which remains effective throughout the life of the garment.

Are these made from recycled materials?

Yes, each pair is manufactured using approximately 28 recycled plastic bottles, contributing to a more sustainable production process.

Troubleshooting

Water-repellency seems to be fading

The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time. Use a specialized DWR re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment to restore the coating.

Zippers feel stiff or stuck

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. Gently clean the zipper area with a soft brush to remove trail grit and debris.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Kiwi Classic Trousers, the following practices are recommended:

Fitting: Utilize the provided belt and part-elasticated waistband to achieve a secure fit. Ensure the trousers sit comfortably at the hips to prevent chafing during long distance walks.
Washing: Wash in cold or warm water with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip the *Smartdry Eco* water-repellent coating from the fabric.
Drying: Air drying is the best method to preserve the structural integrity of the material and the effectiveness of the sun-protective finish.
Compatibility: These trousers pair well with light-to-midweight hiking boots. If heading into colder climates, they are spacious enough to accommodate a thin base-layer legging underneath.
