Product Information

Full details

The Portwest C070 Drawstring Trousers in Black are designed for adults seeking comfortable, durable workwear with excellent spill resistance. Their key benefit lies in the Texpel coating, which repels liquids, keeping you protected from common spills. A potential caveat is their unisex design, which may require attention to sizing for a perfectly tailored fit. These trousers feature a lightweight yet hard-wearing polycotton twill fabric, an elasticated waist with a drawcord for adjustable comfort, and multiple pockets for practical storage. They are built for longevity, maintaining shape and color after washing.

FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Texpel coating?

The Texpel coating is designed to repel liquids such as water, oil, and grime, preventing them from soaking into the fabric and causing stains, thereby keeping you cleaner and more comfortable.

Are these trousers suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, they are designed for comfort with a lightweight polycotton blend and an adjustable elasticated waistband, making them suitable for extended periods of wear.

How do I wash these trousers to maintain their performance?

Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C with a mild process. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low and iron at a medium setting. Avoid dry cleaning.

Can these trousers be worn by both men and women?

Yes, they feature a stylish unisex design, making them suitable for a wide range of users.

What material are the Portwest C070 trousers made from?

They are made from Kingsmill Polycotton with a Texpel Finish, which is a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, weighing 190g.

How many pockets do the trousers have?

The trousers feature three pockets in total: two side pockets and one back pocket.

Will these trousers shrink after washing?

No, they are designed to be non-shrinking, ensuring they maintain their shape and size after washing if cared for according to the instructions.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too loose or too tight.

Adjust the drawcord for a more secure fit. If the overall size is incorrect, consult the size chart and consider exchanging for a different size.

Stains are not repelling effectively.

Ensure the Texpel coating is intact. For persistent stains not repelled, refer to the care instructions for washing. Avoid harsh chemicals that might degrade the coating.

Fabric has shrunk after washing.

Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely, especially regarding washing and drying temperatures. The product is designed to be non-shrinking if cared for correctly.

Seams or stitching coming undone.

Inspect the garment. For minor issues, a professional tailor may be able to repair them. If the damage is significant, contact the retailer for warranty information.
