Product Information
Full details
Designed for male professionals, the Herock Socres Multi-Pocket Trousers offer exceptional durability and storage capacity with a comfortable 2-way stretch fabric. While providing extensive pocket space and water-repellent features, the primary caveat is the need for specific knee protection for certified impact resistance. These trousers are ideal for tradespeople and construction workers who require easy access to tools and protection against the elements.

FAQs
Are the knee pads included with the trousers?
No, the knee pads are sold separately. The trousers are designed to be compatible with specific Herock® knee protection for EN ISO 14404 certification.
What is the main benefit of the 2-way stretch fabric?
The 2-way stretch fabric allows for greater freedom of movement in all directions, making the trousers comfortable and practical for physically demanding tasks.
How do I ensure the trousers are the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Herock and measure your waist accurately. The specified UK waist size (e.g., 32) corresponds to standard sizing.
Can I wear these trousers for casual use?
While durable and comfortable, their design is optimized for work environments with extensive pocket functionality. They can be worn casually, but their primary purpose is professional use.
How durable are the pockets?
The trousers feature robust pocket construction, including reinforced Oxford polyester on the thigh pockets, designed to withstand the rigors of professional use. However, avoid overloading pockets with excessively heavy items.
What does 'water-repellent surface coating' mean?
It means the outer fabric has been treated to resist water, causing liquids to bead up and roll off. This provides protection against light rain and splashes, but the trousers are not fully waterproof.
What certifications do these trousers have?
The trousers are certified according to EN ISO 13688:2013 (general requirements for protective clothing) and EN ISO 14404:2004+A1:2010 Type 2 Level 0 when used with specific Herock® knee protection.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency is reduced
The water-repellent coating can diminish over time with washing. Consider re-applying a commercial water-repellent spray suitable for outdoor fabrics, following the spray's instructions. Avoid using fabric softener during washes.
Knee protection does not fit correctly
Ensure you are using Herock® knee protection specifically designed for these trousers (e.g., 21MI0901 22MTR2102). Check that the knee pads are inserted into the correct pockets and oriented properly.
Pockets feel too tight for specific tools
While designed for many common tools, some larger items may not fit snugly. Utilize the available pockets strategically for tools of appropriate size. The 2-way stretch fabric offers some give, but pocket dimensions are fixed.
Trousers feel warm during hot weather
The fabric composition provides durability and water resistance, which can sometimes lead to reduced breathability in extreme heat. Consider wearing lighter base layers or opting for trousers with more advanced ventilation features if working in consistently high temperatures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

The trousers are designed for adult use and are compatible with Herock® brand knee protection for EN ISO 14404 certification. They are suitable for a wide range of manual labor and trade professions.
Care Instructions:
To maintain the fabric's properties, especially the water-repellent coating, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting.
- Ironing: Iron at a medium temperature (max 150°C).
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
- Maintenance: Wash with similar colours. Do not use fabric softener, as this can affect the water-repellent treatment. Re-apply water-repellent treatment periodically if needed, following the product instructions.
