Deerhunter Pro Gamekeeper Boot Trousers - Brown

While the trousers are breathable and feature ventilation zippers, they are primarily designed for protection against wind and water. For very hot weather, they might feel warmer than lighter-weight alternatives. They are best suited for mild to cool conditions or strenuous activity where ventilation is key.

Thornproof means the fabric has a high resistance to piercing and tearing from sharp objects like thorns, brambles, and other abrasive vegetation, making them ideal for use in dense undergrowth.

There is a five-year warranty on manufacturing defects specifically for the DEER-TEX Performance Shell membrane.

Ensure zippers are closed before washing. If zippers become stiff, clean them of any dirt or debris and consider using a specialized zipper lubricant designed for outdoor gear.

These trousers are designed as an outer layer and can be worn over a base layer or light mid-layer for warmth. Wearing them over bulky trousers may restrict movement.

The trousers feature two front pockets with waterproof zippers, a thigh pocket with a waterproof zipper, a dedicated knife pocket with a waterproof zipper, and back pockets with pocket flaps for secure storage.

Ensure all seams are properly taped and not damaged. Re-check washing instructions; improper washing can affect membrane performance.

Check for blockages in vents or pockets. The DEER-TEX membrane may require cleaning according to care instructions if performance diminishes.

Ensure zippers are clean and free of debris. Gently try to work them back and forth. A silicone-based zipper lubricant can be applied sparingly if necessary, ensuring it does not contact the fabric.

Verify that no fabric softener was used, as this can compromise the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish and membrane. Re-apply a DWR treatment if necessary, following the product's guidelines.
