FAQs

Are these trousers waterproof?

These trousers are made of neoprene, which is designed to keep you warm when wet, but they are not fully dry-suit waterproof.

Can I adjust the length of the trousers?

Yes, the trousers feature an adjustable length design to help achieve a personalized fit.

Is the material machine washable?

No, you should hand wash these in fresh water only to preserve the integrity of the lime-based neoprene.

How should I store them during the off-season?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, preferably laying flat to maintain shape.

What is the benefit of lime-based neoprene?

Lime-based neoprene is an environmentally friendly alternative to petroleum-based materials while maintaining high elasticity and thermal properties.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty putting on the trousers

Ensure your skin is dry and pull the trousers up slowly to avoid over-stretching the seams.

Signs of seam irritation

Check that the trousers are sized correctly; if they are too small, the tension on the seams increases.

Neoprene becoming stiff

Salt buildup is the likely cause. Perform a deep soak in fresh, lukewarm water with a specialized neoprene cleaner.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Tested and approved by professional national sailing teams
  • Highly flexible material allows for unrestricted movement
  • Reinforced knees increase product lifespan
  • Environmentally conscious lime-based neoprene construction

Cons

  • Tight, body-hugging fit may feel restrictive for some users
  • Limited to specific temperature ranges for performance comfort
  • Requires proper maintenance to preserve neoprene integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your sailing trousers, proper care is essential. After each use in saltwater, rinse the trousers thoroughly with fresh water to remove salt crystals which can degrade the neoprene over time. Dry the trousers inside-out in a shaded, well-ventilated area, avoiding direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators, as these can cause the neoprene to lose its elasticity and crack. When storing, lay the trousers flat or hang them on a wide-shouldered hanger to prevent permanent creases in the material.
