FAQs

What type of outdoor activities are these trousers best suited for?

They are ideal for high-energy activities like hiking, trekking, climbing, and mountain biking, particularly in moderate weather conditions where wind resistance and freedom of movement are important.

Are these trousers waterproof?

No, they are water-repellent, meaning they can shed light rain or splashes but are not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.

How should I care for the water-repellent finish?

Follow the general washing instructions. Over time, the DWR finish may need refreshing. Use a specific DWR spray or wash-in treatment after cleaning to restore its performance.

What does 'articulated knees' mean?

Articulated knees are pre-shaped and designed to follow the natural bend of your knee, allowing for a greater range of motion and reducing fabric bunching.

Can I wear these in very cold weather?

While they offer wind resistance, they are lightweight. For very cold conditions, layering with thermal base layers underneath is recommended.

What is UPF 50+?

UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It indicates that the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, providing excellent sun protection.

Are there other colours available?

This guide specifically covers the Green colour in Size 8. Availability of other colours and sizes may vary.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The ultra-stretch fabric and articulated knees are designed for maximum mobility, so a proper fit is key.

Water is soaking through.

These trousers offer water repellency, not full waterproofing. For prolonged heavy rain, consider a waterproof outer layer. Ensure the DWR (Durable Water Repellency) treatment is intact; reapplication may be necessary if performance diminishes.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) applied to the teeth can help.
