FAQs

How do I pack the trousers?

Roll the trousers tightly and secure them using the elastic loop provided.

Can I wear these trousers over other pants?

Yes, they are designed to be worn over other pants or shorts.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The trousers have side access zippers for reaching interior pockets, but the pockets themselves are not waterproof.

How do I maintain the DWR treatment?

Wash the trousers with a DWR-specific cleaner and reapply a DWR treatment as needed, following the product instructions.

What is the material made of?

The body fabric is 2.5-layer Toray 50D 100% nylon with DWR (Durable Water Repellent).

What is the warranty?

Please refer to Simms warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the trousers.

Check the hem and ensure it is properly sealed with the hook and loop closure. If the DWR has worn off, reapply a water repellent treatment.

Zippers are sticking.

Lubricate the zippers with a zipper lubricant or a silicone-based spray.

Trousers are not breathable and feel clammy.

Ensure you are not over layering. The trousers are waterproof but not heavily insulated. Adjust layers worn underneath accordingly.
