Product Information
Full details
The Craghoppers Kiwi Pro II Trousers are designed for active hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who require a reliable, high-performance garment for trail walking and adventure. These technical trousers provide the key benefit of unrestricted mobility thanks to their 4-way stretch fabric and water-repellent finish, making them ideal for varied weather conditions. One potential caveat is that the lightweight polyester construction is optimized for movement rather than extreme thermal insulation, meaning they may require layering in freezing environments.

FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for winter hiking?
They are designed primarily for agility and general hiking. They may be too thin for winter unless paired with thermal leggings.
Can I tumble dry these trousers?
It is generally recommended to air dry them to protect the fabric's stretch properties and longevity.
Is the waist size adjustable?
The Kiwi Pro II line typically features a set waist; please verify the specific size (32") before purchase.
Do these provide enough sun protection?
Yes, they feature built-in UPF 50+ protection, which is excellent for long days in high-altitude sun.
Are they truly waterproof?
No, they are water-repellent, meaning they resist light rain and spray but are not intended for heavy, continuous downpours.
Troubleshooting
Water no longer beads off the surface
The DWR finish may have worn off. Wash with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Fabric feels restrictive during movement
Ensure the size is correct and that you are not wearing non-stretchy base layers underneath that limit the pant's natural flex.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Craghoppers Kiwi Pro II Trousers, always check the garment's internal care label before washing. Generally, these trousers should be washed at a low temperature to preserve the technical water-repellent treatment and the integrity of the stretch fibers. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the weave and compromise the moisture-wicking and water-repellent performance. If the water-repellent finish begins to fail over time, you can refresh it with an aftermarket DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for technical outdoor gear. When choosing sizing, consider that the fit is streamlined; if you prefer a looser feel for base layer compatibility, ensure your measurements align with the waist specifications.
