Full details

The Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers are designed for adult males needing durable and functional workwear with ample storage. Their key benefit is the combination of tough poly-cotton canvas, strategic stretch panels for comfort, and numerous pockets, including holster and knee pad options.

FAQs

What material are these trousers made from?

They are made from a durable Kingsmill Canvas fabric, which is a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton Canvas with a peach finish.

How many pockets do the trousers have?

The Portwest Wx3 Work Holster Trousers feature a total of 12 pockets for ample storage.

Are knee pads included?

Yes, a free pair of knee pads is included with this trouser. For certified protection, ensure they are used in combination with Portwest S156 knee pads.

Can I adjust the length of the trousers?

Yes, the trousers have an adjustable hem to accommodate different leg lengths.

What kind of work are these trousers best suited for?

They are designed for general work environments and trades such as construction, carpentry, and maintenance, where durability, comfort, and tool storage are important.

Do the stretch panels offer significant flexibility?

Yes, the innovative stretch panelling is located in key movement areas to provide excellent comfort and flexibility for dynamic tasks.

How should I wash and care for these trousers?

Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a medium setting. Avoid dry cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel restrictive

Ensure you are wearing the correct size. Check the size chart and verify your measurements. The stretch panelling should provide flexibility; if it feels tight, the size may be incorrect.

Pockets feel bulky or uncomfortable

Distribute weight evenly across pockets. For holster pockets, consider tucking them away if not actively in use to reduce bulk.

Knee pads shift during use

Ensure the knee pads are correctly seated in the two-tier pockets. Try adjusting the position to the higher or lower tier for a more secure fit.

Fabric seems stiff after washing

Tumble dry on a low heat setting as recommended. Avoid over-drying. Ironing on a medium setting can also help soften the fabric.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and comfortable poly-cotton canvas fabric.

  • Includes free knee pads for immediate use and enhanced safety (when used in combination with S156).

Cons

  • Hem Adjustment: The adjustable hem can be modified to your preferred length, ensuring a proper fit and preventing tripping hazards.

Compatibility:

  • Knee Pads: For full EN 14404 compliance, use with Portwest S156 knee pads.
