a grade with no reason is not a grade

- Two garments for one carry, and the zip line sits 4 cm clear of the kneecap where it cannot rub.
- cyclingnot advised
- A zip line across the thigh sits directly under a pedalling knee and the exposed teeth chafe. Choose the cycling-cut trouser.
- commutingusable
- Wearable, but the zip lines around the thigh are visible in any light.

the piece
A trail pant whose legs come off above the knee, with the zip placed high enough that it never sits on the kneecap. Both halves are marked left and right so you are not sorting them out in the rain.
what it does, and where it stops
how we test- fabric weight
- 195 g/m²
- garment weight
- 402 g in EU 50 / M
- water repellency
- light — PFC-free DWR, C0 chemistry, applied to the face fabric
- when the finish runs out
- 20 to 30 machine washes, sooner where a pack or saddle rubs
- how you will know
- water stops beading and rolls into the weave instead; the face fabric darkens where it soaks in
- how to renew it
- Wash it clean first, then apply a wash-in or spray-on repellent, then reactivate with a warm tumble dry or a warm iron through a cloth.
- hydrostatic resistance (EN ISO 811)
- Not published.
- breathability (EN ISO 11092)
- Not published.
Sheds a shower and wind-driven spray. It is not a rain barrier: in steady rain the face fabric wets out and water reaches the layer underneath, first at the shoulders and the seat.
Not measured. This garment is water-repellent only, so no hydrostatic figure is published for it.
Not yet measured. No breathability figure is published and no breathability claim is made until it is measured to this standard.
- Zip line 4 cm above the top of the kneecap
- Lower legs marked L and R inside the cuff
- Short length inseam 21 cm once the legs are removed

Garment measurements in centimetres, taken flat. Tolerance ±1 cm — a run of fabric is never exact, and we would rather print the tolerance than pretend it away.
