FAQs
How long does the NosiLife insect repellent last?
The NosiLife treatment is incorporated into the fabric and is designed to remain effective for the expected lifetime of the garment, provided care instructions are followed.
Are these trousers waterproof?
No, these trousers are not waterproof. They are designed for moisture management and breathability, not for heavy rain protection.
Can I wear these in cold weather?
These trousers are best suited for mild to warm weather due to their moisture-wicking and breathable properties. For colder conditions, layering with thermal base layers may be necessary.
What is the primary benefit of the stretch fabric?
The stretch fabric, combined with the tailored fit, allows for a greater range of motion, essential for comfortable and unrestricted movement during activities like golf.
How do I clean the built-in sunglasses wipe?
The integrated sunglasses wipe is part of the fabric and can be cleaned by following the standard washing instructions for the trousers. It should be kept free of dirt and debris for effective use.
Are the materials used sustainable?
The main fabric blend includes recycled nylon and recycled polyester, contributing to sustainability efforts.
What does 'odour-control' mean in the context of the fabric?
The fabric is treated to help resist the build-up of odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep you feeling fresh during and after physical activity.
Troubleshooting
Insect repellent effect seems reduced
Ensure the garment has been washed according to care instructions, avoiding harsh detergents or fabric softeners that can interfere with the NosiLife treatment. The treatment is designed to last for the expected lifetime of the garment.
Trousers feel damp or sticky
This is likely due to moisture not being wicked away effectively. Ensure the garment is not overloaded with other clothing in the wash and that it is drying completely. For athletic use, ensure the fabric is not sealed by dirt or residue.
Fit is too tight or too loose
Adjust the internal or external waistband, if applicable, for a snugger or looser fit. If the overall fit is incorrect, consider if a different size from the available range would be more appropriate.
Heel tape is showing signs of wear
While reinforced, excessive abrasion can still impact the heel tape. Ensure you are not dragging your feet excessively when walking and follow care instructions to maintain fabric integrity.
