Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Craghoppers trousers, follow these guidelines:
- Conversion: To transition to shorts, locate the concealed zippers above the knee and unzip completely. Store the lower leg sections in a secure pocket.
- Cleaning: Wash in cold or lukewarm water with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Hang to dry in a ventilated area. The polyester blend is naturally quick-drying, so tumble drying is generally unnecessary and should be avoided to protect the synthetic fibers.
- Re-treating: Over time, the water-repellent finish may wear off. You can apply a commercial DWR spray after several washes to restore the splashproof protection.
