Product Information

Full details

These trousers are designed for adult women seeking versatile outdoor wear that offers protection from the elements and insects. The key benefit is their multi-functional fabric that repels water, stains, and bites, while also providing sun protection. A minor caveat is that they are cropped, which may not be ideal for all weather conditions or preferences. Key features include H2OShield DWR finish, Nosi Defence fabric, UPF 50+ sun protection, and an integrated sunglasses wipe.

FAQs

What is Nosi Defence fabric?

Nosi Defence is a fabric technology developed by Craghoppers that helps create a barrier against biting insects, reducing the likelihood of insect bites.

How effective is the UPF 50+ protection?

UPF 50+ provides excellent protection against harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, blocking over 98% of UV rays.

Can I wear these trousers in cold weather?

These trousers are primarily designed for moderate to warm weather due to their cropped length and fabric. For cold weather, layering with thermal base layers underneath might be necessary.

How long does the water repellent finish last?

The H2OShield DWR finish is durable but will naturally wear off over time with washing and abrasion. It can be reactivated or reapplied to maintain performance.

Are these trousers machine washable?

Yes, they are machine washable according to the care label instructions, typically at 30°C with mild detergent.

What does 'cropped' mean for these trousers?

Cropped trousers end at a length above the ankle, typically mid-calf or just above the ankle bone. This style is often preferred for warmer weather or specific activities.

Where is the sunglasses wipe usually located?

The integrated sunglasses wipe is typically found sewn into the hem of a pocket, allowing for quick and easy cleaning of eyewear.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency has decreased

The H2OShield DWR finish may need reapplication. Follow care instructions for re-proofing the fabric.

Insects are still getting through

Ensure the Nosi Defence fabric is not compromised by tears or significant wear. Re-application of DWR treatment may also help maintain fabric integrity.

Trousers feel damp after light rain

Check if the DWR treatment needs to be reactivated (often with heat, like tumble drying on low) or re-applied. Heavy or prolonged rain may eventually soak through.

Stains are difficult to remove

Address stains promptly. For stubborn marks, try a gentle stain remover suitable for outdoor fabrics, and wash according to care instructions.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Use a mild detergent.
