Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these trousers waterproof?

They feature a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which makes them water-resistant against light rain, but they are not fully waterproof.

Can I wear these in winter?

They are lightweight and designed for breathability. While excellent for high-energy activities, you would likely need thermal leggings underneath for true winter temperatures.

What is the UPF rating?

The fabric provides UV shielding of 50+, offering excellent protection from sun exposure.

Do the pockets have zippers?

Yes, they feature functional zipped pockets to keep your items secure.

What material are they made of?

These trousers are crafted from durable, ultra-stretch polyester.

Are they suitable for mountain climbing?

Yes, the articulated knees and ultra-stretch material are specifically designed to support unrestricted movement on the mountain.

Troubleshooting

Water is no longer beading on the surface.

The DWR coating has likely worn off. Re-apply a compatible DWR spray treatment to the outer fabric.

Fabric feels tight during high-step movements.

Ensure the part-elasticated waist is adjusted correctly and that you are wearing the appropriate size for your base layers.

Stains or dirt buildup.

Spot clean with a damp cloth or machine wash on a delicate cycle to prevent damaging the technical weave.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight for long-distance comfort
  • High level of wind resistance for exposed terrain
  • Quick-drying fabric handles damp conditions well
  • Articulated knees significantly improve climbing mobility
  • UPF 50+ protection for high-exposure outdoor activities

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty winter insulation
  • PFAS-compliant finish requires periodic maintenance to retain water repellency
  • Slimmer fit design may require precise sizing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Dare 2b trousers, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cold water using a mild, non-biological detergent.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If you must use a tumble dryer, use a low heat setting to avoid damaging the stretch fibers.
  3. Water Repellency: The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish will eventually wear off. If you notice water no longer beads on the surface, restore it using a dedicated DWR spray or wash-in treatment.
  4. Storage: Ensure the trousers are completely dry before storing them to prevent mold or fabric degradation.
  5. Fit: These are designed for a standard fit; if you prefer layering base-layer leggings underneath, ensure you have checked the waist measurement against the size chart.
