Pre-Treatment
WARNING! Cleaning which doesn’t follow the care instructions in the garment may reduce protection.
1. Pre-treat stains and excess dirt before putting your garments into a washing machine:
To remove tree sap – apply alcohol/hand sanitiser to a damp cloth and dab until removed
To remove machinery oil – apply washing liquid to a damp cloth and dab until removed
To remove dirt or mud – soak your garment in detergent for a pre-soak
To remove a small amount of blood – enzymes in human spit can be used to remove this. Simply spit on the stain, rub for 30 seconds, and then add hand soap or dish soap and rinse with cold water.
To remove grass stains – mix one part water and one part vinegar and scrub on until stains are removed
2. Empty all pockets of the garments
3. Zip up all zips (as open zips can be damaged in the wash)
Washing
The main fabric is made up from a blend of elastane and other fibres depending on the colour/fabric type.
If you use your trousers everyday, we recommend washing your garments at least once a week, to maintain their breathability.
1. Use the Nikwax Techwasg. Easy and safe to use, it is designed to efficiently remove dirt and traces of detergent whilst reviving water repellence and optimising the performance of waterproof gear
2. Please be aware that elastane will shrink if exposed to heat, go green wash at 30° with a mild detergent. Ensure you do not use a chlorine bleach
Drying
1. Dry your garment out of direct sunlight, this will ensure it does not bleach the fabric
2. Do not tumble dry, as this can damage the inner chainsaw clogging fabric

3. Re-shape whilst damp
4. Dry your garments on a flat surface

5. Do not iron
