FAQs
Are these pants fully waterproof?
Yes, they are made from nylon material designed to provide a waterproof barrier against rain.
Can I wear these directly against my skin?
While you can, they are designed as over-pants and may be more comfortable when worn over leggings or trousers.
How do I store them to save space?
The pants are designed to be packable; fold or roll them tightly to fit into your backpack or a small storage pouch.
What is the sizing for this product?
This specific variant is designed for a UK women's dress size 22.
Should I use a tumble dryer?
It is recommended to air dry the pants to preserve the integrity of the material and any waterproof treatments.
Troubleshooting
Pants feel too tight when worn over other clothes
Ensure you are layering them over slim-fit base layers rather than bulky cargo trousers, or consider if a looser fit was required for your specific layering system.
Water appears to soak into the fabric
Check if the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off; you may need to apply a specialized waterproof spray to restore performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These pants are designed as a shell layer. When planning your outfit, account for the fact that they are meant to fit over standard walking trousers or leggings. To clean, it is recommended to wipe away mud with a damp cloth; if machine washing is necessary, use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the waterproof coating. Always ensure the pants are completely air-dried before folding them back into their packed state to prevent moisture buildup and potential mildew.
