FAQs
What does NosiLife technology do?
NosiLife is a permanent insect-repellent treatment embedded in the fabric fibers. It helps to repel biting insects like mosquitoes and ticks, and also provides odour control, keeping you comfortable outdoors.
How effective is the UV protection?
The trousers offer UPF 40+ protection, which means they block over 97.5% of the sun's harmful UV rays, providing significant protection for your skin during outdoor activities.
Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?
Yes, the fabric is designed with moisture-control properties to wick away sweat and keep you cool and dry, making them suitable for warmer conditions.
Can I wash these trousers in a machine?
Yes, they are machine washable at 30°C with a mild detergent. However, avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as they can compromise the NosiLife treatment.
How long does the NosiLife treatment last?
The NosiLife treatment is permanent and designed to last for the expected lifetime of the garment, provided the recommended care instructions are followed.
What is the purpose of the heel tape?
The heel tape reinforcement is a durable feature designed to protect the lower hem of the trousers from wear and tear caused by footwear, increasing the garment's longevity.
Are these trousers waterproof?
No, these trousers are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability, moisture-wicking, and protection from insects and UV rays, not for heavy rain protection.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel tight or restrictive
Adjust the waist using the integrated adjuster for a more comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size, as the stretch fit may feel different from traditional trousers.
Reduced insect repellency over time
Ensure washing instructions are strictly followed, avoiding fabric softeners and bleach. The NosiLife treatment is designed for garment longevity, but improper washing can degrade its effectiveness.
Fabric feels damp after activity
While the fabric wicks moisture, heavy perspiration in very humid conditions may take longer to evaporate. Ensure good ventilation and consider the ambient temperature. The quick-drying nature should still provide relief.
Heel tape showing wear
The heel tape is designed for durability. If significant wear occurs, it may be due to excessive friction. Ensure the trousers are the correct length to avoid constant rubbing against footwear.
