Full details
These hardwearing waterproof trousers from Peter Storm are designed for adult males seeking reliable protection from heavy rain during outdoor activities like trekking, hiking, backpacking, and traveling.

Troubleshooting
Trousers are leaking water
Ensure the PU coating is intact. For minor wear, consider a re-waterproofing spray suitable for nylon. Check that the seams are not compromised.
Waistband feels too loose or too tight
Utilize the elasticated waistband and hem adjustments to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure adjustments are made evenly.

Clean the trousers according to care instructions to remove dirt and oils that can affect performance. Consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment suitable for outdoor gear.
