FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for winter hiking?
These are primarily designed for technical trekking and are lightweight. While suitable for multi-season use, they are not insulated; for freezing conditions, we recommend the 'Kiwi Pro Winter Lined' version.
How should I wash these trousers?
Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius. Do not use fabric conditioner, and avoid bleach or heavy detergents.
Is the fabric quick-drying?
Yes, the synthetic polyamide blend is engineered to wick moisture and dry much faster than natural fibers like cotton.
Do they provide protection against ticks?
The NosiDefence fabric is tightly constructed to act as a barrier against insect bites, providing an added layer of protection while hiking.
Can I tumble dry these?
Yes, they can be tumble-dried on a low heat setting, but air-drying is recommended to preserve the integrity of the fabric and DWR treatment.
Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the surface of the fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Re-apply a technical re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment.
Fabric snagged on a branch or rock
Trim loose threads carefully with scissors. If the tear is significant, use a dedicated nylon repair patch to prevent further fraying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Craghoppers Kiwi Pro II Trousers, follow these care guidelines. Always wash in cool water with a mild detergent, and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the water-repellent finish. When drying, tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry; excessive heat can damage the elastic components and synthetic fibers. Because the fabric is water-repellent, you may notice that after extensive use or repeated washing, water beads less effectively. In this case, you can restore the finish by using a technical gear wash-in re-proofer specifically designed for synthetic outdoor clothing. The trousers are compatible with most base-layer leggings for added warmth in cooler climates.
