FAQs

Are these trousers waterproof?

They feature an H2OShield DWR finish, which makes them splashproof and resistant to light rain, but they are not fully waterproof in heavy downpours.

Do I need to take my boots off to remove the legs?

Yes, because the lower leg section of the trouser is designed to be removed as a whole piece, you must remove your footwear to take them off or put them back on.

What material are these made of?

They are constructed from durable, high-performance polyester with built-in stretch for increased mobility.

Can I use fabric softener when washing?

No, fabric softener should be avoided as it can interfere with the performance of the DWR splashproof finish.

How do I know if the legs are attached correctly?

Ensure the zip starts at the designated anchor point and aligns correctly; the concealment flap should sit flat over the zip when properly fastened.

Are these suitable for winter hiking?

They are best suited for mild to warm conditions; for deep winter, you may need to layer leggings underneath, though they are not insulated.

Troubleshooting

Zip is sticking during conversion

Check for fabric debris caught in the teeth and gently clean with a soft brush; do not force the zipper if it feels stuck.

Water no longer beads on the surface

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Apply a DWR reproofing spray or wash-in treatment specifically designed for outdoor apparel.

Lower leg section feels tight around the knee

Ensure the zipper is completely zipped around the circumference to prevent uneven tension in the fabric.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick conversion from trousers to shorts
  • Effective water-repellent finish
  • Durable yet lightweight polyester construction
  • Excellent mobility due to built-in stretch

Cons

  • Zip transition requires removing boots
  • Requires periodic re-proofing of the DWR coating
  • Slimmer fit may not suit all body shapes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure the zip connection is fully cleared of debris before attaching or detaching the lower leg segments. When cleaning, machine wash on a cool setting with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the H2OShield DWR finish. Periodically, the DWR coating may need to be refreshed using a specialized wash-in treatment to maintain the splashproof integrity of the polyester fabric. Always hang-dry your trousers away from direct high heat sources to preserve the elasticity of the stretch fibers.
