Product Details
＋What runs and hikes are these waterproof trousers best for?
Designed for long distance trail running or hiking in wet conditions. They have been thoughtfully designed to provide lots of useful details that can make all the difference on the trails.
What waterproof rating are they?
Our waterproof jackets and trousers are 15,000mm which is suitable for use in moderate rain.
Your trousers are treated with a durable water repellent (DWR) layer that causes water to 'bead' on the surface rather than soaking in. DWR treatments slowly wear out over time which can cause it to start absorbing water and lose breathability.
We recommend using a specialist outdoor sports wash such as Grangers 2 in 1 wash and re-proof every 6 to 12 months, depending how much you use them. Please follow the wash instructions on your specific outdoor clothing wash/proof, but use a gentle and low temp cycle to keep your trousers in best condition.
