FAQs

What material are the Portwest Combat Work Trousers made from?

The trousers are made from a durable poly-cotton fabric, specifically Kingsmill, consisting of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, with a weight of 245g.

How many pockets do these trousers have?

These trousers feature a total of 8 pockets, including side pockets, two back patch pockets, and multiple cargo pockets on the side leg with hook and loop flaps.

Can I use knee pads with these trousers?

Yes, the trousers are designed with dedicated knee pad pockets to facilitate the insertion and use of knee pads for added protection.

What kind of UV protection do the trousers offer?

The fabric is rated UPF 40+, which blocks 98% of UV radiation, providing significant sun protection.

How should I care for my Combat Work Trousers?

Machine wash warm (40°C), do not bleach, tumble dry medium or line dry, and iron on a medium heat setting. Do not dry clean. Wash with similar colors and inside out.

Is the waist adjustable?

Yes, the trousers feature an elasticated back waist and a half-elasticated waist for a secure and comfortable fit.

Are these trousers suitable for hot weather?

While comfortable, the poly-cotton blend is a durable fabric that can be warmer than lighter materials. For extremely hot conditions, consider breathability.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel too tight or too loose

Refer to the Portwest sizing chart for accurate measurements. The half-elasticated back waist provides some flexibility, but ensuring the correct initial waist size is crucial.

Pockets not closing securely

Ensure the hook and loop fasteners are clean and free from debris. Press firmly to ensure a secure closure.

Fabric showing excessive wear after short use

Ensure the trousers are being used for their intended purpose and not subjected to extreme abrasion beyond normal workwear conditions. Verify the correct wash and care instructions are being followed.
