Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the water-resistance and breathability rating?

The pants have a 10k water-resistance rating and a 5k breathability rating.

Are these pants fully waterproof?

They are water-resistant, suitable for rain and spray, but not fully waterproof for extended submersion or extreme downpours.

How do I clean the pants?

Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry low or hang dry.

How do I reapply the DWR finish?

After washing, you can reapply a DWR treatment spray or wash-in product according to the manufacturer's instructions to restore water repellency.

Can I wear these over padded cycling shorts?

Yes, the pants are designed to accommodate wearing cycling shorts underneath. Consider sizing up if you prefer a looser fit.

What makes the zipperless design beneficial?

The zipperless design is intended to increase comfort by removing potential pinch points or irritation from zippers while riding.

What material are the Ranger Water Pants made of?

They are made from a 2.5-layer nylon construction.

Troubleshooting

Pants feel clammy or overly warm.

Ensure the DWR finish is intact and not impeding breathability. Consider wearing lighter base layers or opening the zippered pockets for ventilation if possible.

Water seeping through seams.

Check if the seam tape is intact. For prolonged heavy rain, seam leakage may occur due to the moderate water-resistance rating.

Waist closure is difficult to adjust.

Ensure the ratchet mechanism is clear of debris. Rinse with water if necessary. If the mechanism is damaged, contact customer support.

Zippered pockets are stiff.

Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure the zipper pull is aligned correctly before zipping.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effectively repels water and dirt with DWR finish.
  • Breathable construction helps manage internal moisture.
  • Stretch fabric allows for unrestricted movement.
  • Zipperless design reduces potential for irritation.
  • Secure storage for essentials.

Cons

  • Zipperless entry may require a learning curve for some users.
  • The 10k water resistance might not be sufficient for extreme, prolonged downpours.
  • Breathability rating of 5k is moderate and may not suit very intense, high-output activities in warm, wet conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Ranger Water Pants feature a race-ratchet closure for easy waist adjustment. Simply pull the ratchet strap to tighten and press the release lever to loosen. Ensure the size is appropriate for comfortable layering over riding shorts or base layers if needed.

Compatibility: These pants are designed for cycling, particularly mountain biking. They are compatible with most cycling shoes and knee pads. The nylon material is durable for trail use.

Care:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
  2. DWR Maintenance: To maintain water repellency, periodically reapply a DWR treatment after washing, following the product's instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the fabric's performance.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid ironing.
