FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
They feature a water-repellent finish for light rain and damp conditions, but they are not fully waterproof, so they should not be considered a substitute for hardshell rain pants.
Can I wear these for winter mountaineering?
They are designed as lightweight, high-energy trousers. They are suitable for winter only if paired with thermal base layers.
How does the sizing run?
They are sized to standard UK dress sizes. The partially elasticated waist provides some forgiveness in the fit.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the trousers feature functional zipped pockets to keep your belongings secure while active.
Do these provide sun protection?
Yes, they are rated with UPF 50+ to help protect against UV exposure.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the fabric
The DWR finish may have worn off; wash the garment and apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment to restore repellency.
Fabric feels restrictive during movement
Ensure the waist is adjusted correctly and that the articulated knee section is properly aligned with your joint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Torrek Lite Trousers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: The partially elasticated waist provides flexibility; ensure you choose your standard UK dress size for the best balance of comfort and utility.
- Layering: These trousers function best as a standalone outer layer in mild to cool conditions. In colder weather, pair them with a thin synthetic base layer.
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the water-repellent coating.
- Drying: Air dry in a shaded area to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibers and the UV protection coating.
- Maintenance: If the water repellency starts to fade after heavy use, consider using a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) wash-in treatment to restore performance.
