FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
No, they are water-repellent due to the DWR finish. They will handle light showers but are not fully waterproof or seam-sealed.
Can I use these for climbing?
Yes, the four-way stretch fabric and diamond gusset provide the mobility required for scrambling and light climbing.
What is the primary material?
The Caldbeck Pant is primarily constructed from high-quality, lightweight four-way stretch nylon.
How do I adjust the waist?
There is a low-profile adjustment system combined with rear waistband elastication and an internal drawcord.
Are the pockets zipped?
The trousers feature a mix of open hand pockets, a mesh stash pocket, and dedicated zipped pockets on the thigh and rear.
Troubleshooting
DWR finish is no longer beading water
Wash with a technical cleaner to remove dirt and oils, then re-apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment to restore performance.
Cordlock mechanism is sticking
Check for grit or debris inside the mechanism and rinse with clean water to clear the obstruction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Caldbeck Pants remain in peak condition, always follow the care label instructions. Wash at low temperatures with a technical laundry detergent specifically formulated for outdoor gear; this helps maintain the DWR treatment. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the breathability of the fibers and degrade the water-repellent performance. When the water repellency begins to diminish, treat the fabric with a wash-in or spray-on DWR re-proofer. Store the pants in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods to preserve the color and fabric integrity.
