Product Information
Full details
The Craghoppers Kiwi Pro II Convertible Trousers are designed for active outdoor enthusiasts who need versatility in unpredictable weather. These trousers offer the key benefit of instant adaptability, transitioning from full-length pants to shorts via concealed above-knee zips. While they provide excellent stretch and water-repellent protection for hiking, users should note that the integrated zip mechanism may feel slightly stiff during the initial break-in period.

FAQs
Can I wear these for casual daily use?
Yes, their pared-back design makes them suitable for casual wear, though they are specifically engineered for outdoor performance.
Are the zippers waterproof?
The zippers are concealed for aesthetic and comfort reasons, but they are not fully waterproof, though the fabric around them features a DWR finish.
How should I store them?
Store them clean and dry. Keep the leg sections zipped together or stored neatly folded to prevent kinks in the zipper mechanism.
Does the stretch fabric lose its shape over time?
The high-quality stretch material is designed to retain its shape even after extensive use, provided care instructions are followed.
Can I wear these in winter?
These are designed for active trail use and may not provide enough insulation for extreme winter conditions; layering is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels difficult to operate
Clean any grit or trail debris out of the zipper teeth using a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant if necessary.
Water no longer beads off the fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off. Wash the trousers and re-apply a DWR spray treatment according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Kiwi Pro II trousers, always ensure the zips are fully cleared of dirt and debris before attempting to zip or unzip the legs. For washing, use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can compromise the DWR coating. It is recommended to air dry the trousers to preserve the elasticity and protective finish of the fabric. Always check the internal label for specific heat settings if using a tumble dryer, though line drying is preferred for performance outdoor gear.
