Product Information

Full details

The Craghoppers Kiwi Classic Trousers are designed for active adults who demand durability and utility during outdoor pursuits like hiking or trail walking. Featuring advanced fabric technologies for sun protection and pest defense, these trousers offer a reliable, comfortable fit with multiple pockets for essential storage. While they are highly functional and easy to maintain, the relaxed, high-rise cut may not suit users looking for a slim or contemporary tapered aesthetic.

FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for summer hiking?

Yes, they feature a UPF 50+ sun protection rating and are designed for breathability, making them ideal for sunny outdoor conditions.

Can I use these for climbing?

While durable, the relaxed fit and non-stretch polyester construction are better suited for walking, hiking, and travel rather than high-mobility technical climbing.

How do I determine the right size?

The trousers are sized by UK waist measurements. The part-elasticated waist allows for some flexibility, but it is recommended to measure your true waist circumference.

What is the benefit of the reinforced heel tape?

The heel tape prevents the bottom edge of the trousers from fraying or wearing thin when rubbing against boots during long walks.

Is the material waterproof?

The fabric includes H2OShield technology for water resistance, meaning it will repel light rain or splashes, but it is not a fully waterproof garment.

Troubleshooting

Water-repellency seems to be fading

Apply a specialized technical garment re-proofing spray to the outer fabric and tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the coating.

Stiff or sticky zipper

Clear any dust or dirt from the zipper teeth using a small brush, or run a graphite pencil along the teeth to act as a dry lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent sun protection with UPF 50+ rating
  • Highly practical pocket layout for organizing gear
  • Reinforced fabric adds longevity to high-stress areas
  • Dirt-repellent material reduces the frequency of washing
  • Comfortable fit suitable for various body types

Cons

  • Relaxed fit may feel baggy compared to modern slim-cut trousers
  • High-rise waist design is a specific aesthetic preference
  • Limited stretch compared to specialized technical climbing pants

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Craghoppers Kiwi Classic Trousers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit: The trousers feature a standard button fastening with a zip fly and integrated belt loops. Ensure you match your precise waist size for the best fit, as the part-elasticated waist provides minor adjustment room.
  2. Care: While the fabric is easy-care, machine wash on a cool setting. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners as they can interfere with the performance of the `H2OShield` water-repellent coating.
  3. Storage: Hang the trousers or fold them carefully to maintain the integrity of the reinforced heel tape.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically check the zip pockets to ensure debris has not built up in the teeth to maintain smooth operation.
