FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
The Rab Torque Trousers are made from softshell fabric, offering good wind and water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, a waterproof shell layer would be recommended.
What type of activities are these best suited for?
They are ideal for intense mountain activities in warmer weather, such as climbing, scrambling, hiking, and trekking, where freedom of movement and durability are key.
Can I wear these in cold weather?
While they offer some protection, they are primarily designed for warmer conditions. For colder weather, consider layering with thermal base layers.
How do I clean the trousers?
Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. Hang dry and avoid fabric softeners.
What is the benefit of the reinforced areas?
The reinforcements on the knees, thighs, and hems significantly increase abrasion resistance, protecting the trousers from wear and tear on rough terrain.
Do these trousers have a specific fit?
They feature a refined fit with exceptional articulation at the knees to ensure comfort and absolute freedom of movement during technical activities.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel restrictive.
Ensure the belt is not over-tightened and that the articulated knee design is properly aligned with your leg movement. Check that the size is appropriate.
Fabric appears to be snagged.
Inspect the area for damage. Minor snags may not affect performance, but significant tears may require repair.
Zipper on cuff is difficult to operate.
Check for debris caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Avoid forcing it.
