FAQs
What material are these trousers made from?
They are made from a durable 245 gsm fabric blend consisting of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton.
Are knee pads included with the trousers?
No, knee pads are not included but the trousers feature dedicated pockets to insert them.
How do I choose the right leg length?
The trousers are available in three leg lengths: Short (29"), Regular (31"), and Long (33"). Measure your inside leg to select the best fit.
Can I wear these trousers for casual occasions?
While designed for work, their simple, straight-leg cut and practical features make them suitable for casual wear if desired.
How should I wash these trousers?
They are machine washable. Wash at a moderate temperature (e.g., 40°C), tumble dry on low, and iron on a medium setting. Avoid bleach.
What makes the waist comfortable?
The trousers feature a part-elasticated waist, which provides flexibility and a more comfortable fit, especially when moving or bending.
Are there other color options available?
The provided information indicates availability in Blue and Black. Please check product listings for specific color availability.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel tight around the waist
The part-elasticated waist provides some give. Ensure you have selected the correct waist size. The elasticated section is designed for comfort, not significant expansion.
Knee pads do not stay in place
Ensure you are using knee pads designed for use with work trousers and that they are the correct size for the pockets. Some minor adjustment of position may be needed.
Fabric shows wear after a short period
Check that you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive heat, which can degrade fabric over time. Ensure the trousers are suitable for the specific demands of your work environment.
Color fades after washing
Wash with similar colors and use a detergent suitable for colored fabrics. Washing at lower temperatures can help preserve color.
