FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the nylon-spandex blend?

The nylon-spandex blend provides excellent stretch for mobility, is water-shedding to keep you drier, dries quickly, and offers protection from the sun's rays.

Are these trousers completely waterproof?

No, these trousers are water-shedding, meaning they repel surface water, but they are not fully waterproof. For complete waterproof protection, especially during extended submersion, waterproof waders are recommended.

What sizes are available?

The Simms Lightweight Guide Fishing Trousers are available in sizes ranging from Small to XXLarge.

What colors do these trousers come in?

They are available in two color options: Slate and Loden.

How should I care for my fishing trousers?

Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.

Can these trousers be worn on their own or only with waders?

They are designed to be worn as a primary garment for fishing activities, offering mobility and protection. They are also compatible with waders for additional protection when needed.

Who are these trousers designed for?

These trousers are designed for adult male anglers who require mobility, durability, and protection while wading and fishing.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The intended fit allows for freedom of movement; if too tight, consider a larger size. Check that zippers and closures are fully secured without being overly strained.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

While water-shedding, the fabric is not fully waterproof. For prolonged submersion, waterproof waders are recommended. The water-shedding properties may diminish over time; reapplication of a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment may be necessary following manufacturer guidelines.

Material feels stiff after washing.

Avoid using fabric softeners. Wash with a mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. If stiffness persists, a specialized technical fabric wash can help restore softness.
