Product Information
Full details
The Craghoppers Kiwi Pro II Convertible Trousers are designed for adult male outdoor enthusiasts who need maximum versatility in unpredictable environments. These trousers provide the primary benefit of transforming instantly from full-length pants to shorts via a concealed zip, making them ideal for hikers who face fluctuating temperatures. A notable caveat is that while they are highly functional for active use, the zip-off construction means they carry a slightly more technical aesthetic compared to standard everyday trousers.

FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for winter use?
They are designed primarily for active hiking in temperate weather. They do not have thermal lining, so they may be too light for extreme cold.
How do I know which leg segment belongs to which side?
The zip-off legs are typically color-coded or marked internally. Matching the zippers should be intuitive once you align the seams.
Does the zipper chafe while walking?
The zipper is designed to be concealed by a fabric flap, which minimizes contact with the skin and prevents chafing.
Can I put these in the tumble dryer?
While air drying is preferred for longevity, you can tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the water-repellent finish.
Are the materials recycled?
Yes, these trousers utilize Smartdry Eco recycled materials as part of Craghoppers' commitment to sustainability.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate
Check for debris or dirt caught in the zipper teeth and gently clean with a soft brush; ensure the fabric flap is pulled away while zipping.
Water is no longer beading off the fabric
The DWR finish may have worn off; apply a technical fabric re-proofing spray and tumble dry on a low setting to reactivate the coating.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Seamless transition from trousers to shorts
- Excellent freedom of movement due to 4-way stretch
- Durable water-repellent finish for light showers
- Easy-care material that resists wrinkling
Cons
- Technical design may not suit formal settings
- Zip lines can be felt against skin during extended wear
- Requires careful storage of leg sections when detached
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To convert the trousers, locate the concealed zips at the thigh and unzip fully, ensuring you keep the left and right leg sections organized. The garment is compatible with standard hiking footwear. For care, wash the trousers on a gentle cycle in cold water using a mild detergent. Because of the 'wash & wear' properties, hang drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the water-repellent finish and prevent unnecessary wear on the zipper components. Avoid the use of fabric softeners, as these can interfere with the DWR coating.
